Return the natural logarithm of the rising factorial from the first specified argument to the second.

\[ \mbox{log\_rising\_factorial}(x, n) = \begin{cases} \textrm{error} & \mbox{if } x \leq 0\\ \ln x^{(n)} & \mbox{if } x > 0 \textrm{ and } -\infty \leq n \leq \infty \\[6pt] \textrm{NaN} & \mbox{if } x = \textrm{NaN or } n = \textrm{NaN} \end{cases} \]

\[ \frac{\partial\, \mbox{log\_rising\_factorial}(x, n)}{\partial x} = \begin{cases} \textrm{error} & \mbox{if } x \leq 0\\ \Psi(x+n) - \Psi(x) & \mbox{if } x > 0 \textrm{ and } -\infty \leq n \leq \infty \\[6pt] \textrm{NaN} & \mbox{if } x = \textrm{NaN or } n = \textrm{NaN} \end{cases} \]
