F(x;k)=\(gamma(k/2,x/2))/(\Gamma(k/2))

Explanation:

The cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a Chi-squared distribution with k degrees of freedom, \chi^2(k), is

F(x;k)=\(gamma(k/2,x/2))/(\Gamma(k/2))

where \gamma(s,t) is the lower incomplete Gamma function and \Gamma(z) is the normal Gamma function which are both special functions defined by integrals.
