_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This function computes the cumulative probability or nonexceedance
     probability of the Gamma distribution given parameters (alpha and
     beta) of the distribution computed by 'pargam'.  The cumulative
     distribution function of the distribution has no explicit form,
     where alpha is a shape parameter and beta is a scale parameter in
     the R syntax.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     cdfgam(x, para)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

       x: A real value.

    para: The parameters from 'pargam' or similar.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     Nonexceedance probability (F) for x.

_A_u_t_h_o_r(_s):
