My physics professor introduce us to the gamma function a few weeks ago, and I've been thinking about it quite a bit.
Is there some sort of significance to the fact that the Gamma function has a local minimum value at about n=1.462?
I worked out that the derivative of the gamma function can be shown to be
Integral t^(n-1)*e^(-t)*ln(t) dt
and found the zero of that function using my calculator.
