        gamma(shape, scale=1.0, size=None)

        Draw samples from a Gamma distribution.

        Samples are drawn from a Gamma distribution with specified parameters,
        `shape` (sometimes designated "k") and `scale` (sometimes designated
        "theta"), where both parameters are > 0.

        Parameters
        ----------
        shape : float or array_like of floats
            The shape of the gamma distribution. Must be non-negative.
        scale : float or array_like of floats, optional
            The scale of the gamma distribution. Must be non-negative.
            Default is equal to 1.
        size : int or tuple of ints, optional
            Output shape.  If the given shape is, e.g., ``(m, n, k)``, then
            ``m * n * k`` samples are drawn.  If size is ``None`` (default),
            a single value is returned if ``shape`` and ``scale`` are both scalars.
            Otherwise, ``np.broadcast(shape, scale).size`` samples are drawn.

        Returns
        -------
        out : ndarray or scalar
            Drawn samples from the parameterized gamma distribution.

            cumulative density function, etc.

        Notes
        -----
        The probability density for the Gamma distribution is

        .. math:: p(x) = x^{k-1}\frac{e^{-x/\theta}}{\theta^k\Gamma(k)},

        where :math:`k` is the shape and :math:`\theta` the scale,
        and :math:`\Gamma` is the Gamma function.

        The Gamma distribution is often used to model the times to failure of
        electronic components, and arises naturally in processes for which the
        waiting times between Poisson distributed events are relevant.

        Examples
        --------
        Draw samples from the distribution:

        >>> shape, scale = 2., 2.  # mean=4, std=2*sqrt(2)
        >>> s = np.random.default_rng().gamma(shape, scale, 1000)

        Display the histogram of the samples, along with
        the probability density function:

        >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
        >>> import scipy.special as sps  # doctest: +SKIP
        >>> count, bins, ignored = plt.hist(s, 50, density=True)
        >>> y = bins**(shape-1)*(np.exp(-bins/scale) /  # doctest: +SKIP
        ...                      (sps.gamma(shape)*scale**shape))
        >>> plt.plot(bins, y, linewidth=2, color='r')  # doctest: +SKIP
        >>> plt.show()
