Class Binomial
java.lang.Object
com.singularsys.jep.functions.PostfixMathCommand
com.singularsys.jep.functions.Binomial
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- PostfixMathCommandI, java.io.Serializable
public class Binomial
- extends PostfixMathCommand
Binomial coefficients: binom(n,i).
Requires n,i integers >=0.
Often written as nCi or column vector (n,i).
The following rules apply:
(n,0) = 1, (n,1) = n, (n,n-1) = n, (n,n) = 1
(n,i) = n! / ( i! (n-i)! )
Pascals triangle rule: (n,i) = (n-1,i-1) + (n-1,i)
Binomial theorem: (a+b)^n = sum (n,i) a^i b^(n-i), i=0..n.
For efficiency the binomial coefficients are stored in a static array.
