In mathematics, Pascal's triangle is an infinite triangular array of the binomial coefficients which play a crucial role in probability theory, combinatorics, and algebra.In much of the Western world, it is named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal, although other mathematicians studied it centuries before him in Persia, [1] India, [2] China, Germany, and Italy.
Pascal's triangle, rows 0 through 7. The hockey stick identity confirms, for example: for n =6, r =2: 1+3+6+10+15=35. In combinatorics , the hockey-stick identity , [ 1 ] Christmas stocking identity , [ 2 ] boomerang identity , Fermat's identity or Chu's Theorem , [ 3 ] states that if n ≥ r ≥ 0 {\displaystyle n\geq r\geq 0} are integers, then
1000th row of Pascal's triangle, arranged vertically, with grey-scale representations of decimal digits of the coefficients, right-aligned. The left boundary of the image corresponds roughly to the graph of the logarithm of the binomial coefficients, and illustrates that they form a log-concave sequence .
Some of the literature on the subject focused on the use-case of matched-pairs binary data, which requires careful attention when translating the formulas to the general case of for any multinomial distribution. Formulas in the current section will be generalized, while formulas in the next section will focus on the matched-pairs binary data ...
The powers of two that divide the central binomial coefficients are given by Gould's sequence, whose nth element is the number of odd integers in row n of Pascal's triangle. Squaring the generating function gives 1 1 − 4 x = ( ∑ n = 0 ∞ ( 2 n n ) x n ) ( ∑ n = 0 ∞ ( 2 n n ) x n ) . {\displaystyle {\frac {1}{1-4x}}=\left(\sum _{n=0 ...
The following is an APL one-liner function to visually depict Pascal's triangle: Pascal ← { ' ' @ ( 0 =⊢ ) ↑ 0 , ⍨¨ a ⌽ ¨ ⌽∊ ¨ 0 , ¨¨ a ∘ ! ¨ a ← ⌽⍳ ⍵ } ⍝ Create a one-line user function called Pascal Pascal 7 ⍝ Run function Pascal for seven rows and show the results below: 1 1 2 1 3 3 1 4 6 4 1 5 10 10 5 1 6 ...
A level-5 approximation to a Sierpiński triangle obtained by shading the first 2 5 (32) levels of a Pascal's triangle white if the binomial coefficient is even and black otherwise If one takes Pascal's triangle with 2 n {\displaystyle 2^{n}} rows and colors the even numbers white, and the odd numbers black, the result is an approximation to ...
It explains that Pascal's Triangle doesn't appear in what survives of Pingala's work, but in Halayudha's more than 1,000 years later. MrOllie ( talk ) 02:10, 2 February 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Actually i am very much interested to know truth even if halyudha discover it his name should definitely come to in history of pascal triangle.
