GAMMAINV
The GAMMAINV function returns the inverse gamma cumulative distribution.
GAMMAINV(probability, alpha, beta)
 probability: A probability associated with the distribution. probability is a number
value and must be greater than 0 and less than 1.
 alpha: One of the shape parameters of the distribution. alpha is a number value
and must be greater than 0.
 beta: One of the shape parameters of the distribution. beta is a number value and
must be greater than 0.
Examples
=GAMMAINV(0.8, 1, 2) returns 3.2188758248682.
=GAMMAINV(0.8, 2, 1) returns 2.99430834700212.

GAMMALN
The GAMMALN function returns the natural logarithm of the gamma function, G(x).
GAMMALN(pos-x-value)
 pos-x-value: The positive x value at which you want to evaluate the function. pos-x-
value is a number value and must be greater than 0.
Examples
=GAMMALN(0.92) returns 0.051658003497744.
=GAMMALN(0.29) returns 1.13144836880416.
