Abstract: Lower and upper bounds $B_a(x)$ on the incomplete gamma function $Gamma(a,x)$ are given for all real $a$ and all real $x>0$. These bounds $B_a(x)$ are exact in the sense that $B_a(x)undersetxdownarrow0simGamma(a,x)$ and $B_a(x)undersetxoinftysimGamma(a,x)$. Moreover, the relative errors of these bounds are rather small for other values of $x$, away from $0$ and $infty$.
