log of hypergeometric functions?

the-noble-argon opened this issue · comments

Are there any methods to directly calculate the log of nFq? I'm asking because nFq([a],[b],x) can get very big, very quickly and start to behave erratically at values of x as low as 15. It would make sense to have a shortcut to get its logarithm (these issues are why I use loggamma(x) way more frequently than gamma(x))

After further looking, I see that no other libraries do logs of hypergeometric functions. This is probably either impossible to directly calculate or an area of active research. Closing
