Topics of this chapter are gamma functions, beta functions, and related functions in the complex domain. The evaluations are based on various numerical techniques in dependence of the function argument. Related functions are the Pochhammer symbol, the psi or digamma function, the incomplete gamma function and its first and second derivative, the inverse incomplete gamma function, and the incomplete beta function. In addition some examples are discussed. Corresponding programming code can be downloaded.
