Binomial Module
Special mathematical functions
Functions and values
| Function or value | Description |
Full Usage:
_coeffcient n k
Parameters:
int
-
input for n in the computation of (n | k)
k : int
-
input for k in the computation of (n | k)
Returns: float
|
Returns the binomial coeffcient (n | k) via the factorial formula. for some combinations of n and k, this might result in overflows. The caller is responsible to handle edge cases such as nan, infinity, and -infinity in the input
|
Full Usage:
_coeffcientLn n k
Parameters:
int
-
input for n in the computation of ln(n | k)
k : int
-
input for k in the computation of ln(n | k)
Returns: float
|
Returns the natural logarithm of the binomial coeffcient (n | k) via the factorial formula. for some combinations of n and k, this might result in overflows. The caller is responsible to handle edge cases such as nan, infinity, and -infinity in the input
|
Full Usage:
coeffcient n k
Parameters:
int
-
input for n in the computation of (n | k)
k : int
-
input for k in the computation of (n | k)
Returns: float
|
Returns the binomial coeffcient (n | k) via the factorial formula. for some combinations of n and k, this might result in overflows. Edge cases in the input (nan, infinity, and -infinity) are catched and handled. This might be slower than the unchecked version `_coefficient` but does not require input sanitation to get expected results for these cases.
