I think they would be looking for modular arithmetic since this is a number theory style proof they request for these type of questions. But, this helps me out thank you, gives me somewhere to start :).
Hello everyone :),
I'm sure someone will have no problem helping me with this. How do I figure out large powered numerical values without using a calculator. Kept getting questions involving 2^2007 and others. How would I be able to figure out these values without using a calculator or a...
i'll get the quote here:
"This is a startling fact that Stirling discovered:
n! (that symbol here) sqrt(2*pi)*e^(-n)*n^(n+(1/2))
To my mind, this is one of the quintessential discoveries of 18th century mathematics. A formula like this give us some idea of the astonishing...
\succ\prec it looks like that except the gap between the top and bottom pieces is a bit more and they are together not separated. now what is this symbol the one that is highlighted as \asymp, cause that is the symbol it uses? and thank you :).
no it's not approximately equal to. It is an equal sign with the top bar bent downwards, and the bottom bar bent upwards. It could in meaning be approximately or precisely equal to but it looks like if you cut a empty half elipse in half, put the bottom half on the top where the topbar of the...
Hello everybody,
My name is Daniel. I have a simple question. I'm just doing some research for my theory and I found myself just in the topic of stirling's formula. It is denoted with an equals sign that is bent in like the top bar of the equals sign in bent down, and the bottom bar of...
