Homework 1: An assignment for very simple Python

Create a program called "gamma.py" that computes and prints the Gamma function of 3/2, and computes and prints the (square root of pi) divided by 2.

Run and see that the program returns the same values for these two quantities (within the floating point precision of your computer).
