+### Usage
+
+```c
+#include "stdlib/stats/base/dists/gamma/logpdf.h"
+```
+
+#### stdlib_base_dists_gamma_logpdf( x, alpha, beta )
+
+Evaluates the logarithm of the probability density function (PDF) for a gamma distribution with shape parameter `alpha` and rate parameter `beta` at a value `x`.
+
+```c
+double out = stdlib_base_dists_gamma_logpdf( 2.0, 0.5, 1.0 );
+// returns ~-2.919
+```
+
+The function accepts the following arguments:
+
+-   **x**: `[in] double` input value.
+-   **mu**: `[in] double` shape parameter.
+-   **b**: `[in] double` rate parameter.
+
+```c
+double stdlib_base_dists_gamma_logpdf( const double x, const double alpha, const double beta );
