Physics new code (TheAlgorithms#4709)

* added gamma_function

* Add files via upload

* Resolved issue with str.format

And also changed output to math notation

* Update gamma_function.py

* Rename physics/gamma_function.py to maths/gamma_recursive.py

* Fixes: TheAlgorithms#4709 Fixed issues for pre-commit test

* Fixes: TheAlgorithms#4709 solved issues with doctests

And comments

* Fixes: TheAlgorithms#4709 Added failed tests to doctest

* Align with Python's Standard Library math.gamma()

Replicate the exceptions of https://docs.python.org/3/library/math.html#math.gamma

* Update gamma_recursive.py

* Update gamma_recursive.py

* Update gamma_recursive.py

* Update gamma_recursive.py

+Gamma function is a very useful tool in math and physics.
+It helps calculating complex integral in a convenient way.
+for more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_function
+
+Python's Standard Library math.gamma() function overflows around gamma(171.624).
