[Numpy-discussion] problem with factorial?

[Neal Becker]

I noticed my fact function:
from scipy.special import gamma
def fact(x):
  return gamma (x+1)


Wasn't working.  Then I see:
gamma
<built-in method gamma of mtrand.RandomState object at 0x7f4934b86c90>

Looks like there's a conflict in scipy over the name 'gamma' (I guess this
was pulled in later in my script when I did 'from pylab import *')
