The digamma function is the logarithmic derivative
Logarithmically differentiating the Weierstrass product gives
The digamma function, denoted as \( \psi(x) \), is the logarithmic derivative of the gamma function \( \Gamma(x) \). Mathematically, it is defined as: \[ \psi(x) = \frac{d}{dx} \ln(\Gamma(x)) = \frac{\Gamma'(x)}{\Gamma(x)} \] where \( \Gamma'(x) \) is the derivative of the gamma function.
