Parameters

expr

-

expression

indets

-

(optional) indeterminate or set of indeterminates

Description

• 

The convert/GAMMA function converts factorials, binomials and multinomial coefficients in an expression to the GAMMA function.

• 

You can enter the command convert/GAMMA using either the 1-D or 2-D calling sequence. For example, convert(x!, GAMMA) is equivalent to convert⁡x!,Γ.

• 

If an indeterminate or set of indeterminates is specified, then only factorials and binomials involving a specified indeterminate will be converted to the GAMMA function.

Examples

> 

convert⁡x!,Γ

Γ⁡x+1

(1)
> 

convert⁡binomial⁡m,3,Γ

Γ⁡m+16⁢Γ⁡m−2

(2)
> 

convert⁡x!⁢y!⁢z!,Γ,x,y

Γ⁡x+1⁢Γ⁡y+1⁢z!

(3)
> 

convert⁡x+y!,Γ,x,y

Γ⁡x+y+1
