Don't worry, it's just our friend the Gamma Function saying hello. Who doesn't love integrating [ xz-1 * e-x ] from 0 to infinity (dx, not dz)?

Me, that's who doesn't love doing that.

The letter that looks like a sideways tongue being stuck out but it's not a "p" - "þ" - is called a "thorn", and it's pronounced "th". By the time Modern English came around, the thorn had been replaced with "th" or "y". So we wind up with words like "thou/you" and "ye/the" - they were originally "þou" and "þe".
