Comment:

attachment:trac_9240-factorial_evaluation.patch​ adds further doctests and fixes for the evaluation of factorials. It should be applied after attachment:trac_9240_full_simplify_gamma.patch​.

My changes depend on a small patch to pynac, where I somehow used && instead of bitwise and. This patch can be obtained from:

​https://bitbucket.org/burcin/pynac-patches/src/c3c5b3b8b1eb/bitwise.patch

This ticket now depends on a new pynac release, which should be coming soon.

    102102and then the Maxima interface converts this to Sage as factorial(-2/3).  This causes an error.  For Sage, factorial(x) is only defined if x is a non-negative integer, whereas for Maxima factorial(x) is equivalent to gamma(1+x) and so makes sense whenever x is not in {-1, -2, -3, ...}
