B. SPECIAL TABLES OF FUNCTIONS, ETC.
Several tables of service will be found in the works cited in
Appendix II, e.g., a table of Gamma Functions in Elderton’s
book (12) and a table of six-figure logarithms of the factorials
of all numbers from 1 to 1100 in De Morgan’s treatise (11). The
majority of the tables in the list below, which were originally
published in Biometrika, together with others, are contained in
Tables for Statisticians and Biometricians, Part 1., edited by Karl
Pearson (Cambridge University Press, price 15s. net).
