  2. Factorial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorial

    The factorial of is , or in symbols, ! =. There are several motivations for this definition: For n = 0 {\displaystyle n=0} , the definition of n ! {\displaystyle n!} as a product involves the product of no numbers at all, and so is an example of the broader convention that the empty product , a product of no factors, is equal to the ...

  3. Falling and rising factorials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falling_and_rising_factorials

    These symbols are collectively called factorial powers. [ 2 ] The Pochhammer symbol , introduced by Leo August Pochhammer , is the notation ( x ) n {\displaystyle (x)_{n}} , where n is a non-negative integer .

  4. List of logic symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_logic_symbols

    The following table lists many common symbols, together with their name, how they should be read out loud, and the related field of mathematics. Additionally, the subsequent columns contains an informal explanation, a short example, the Unicode location, the name for use in HTML documents, [1] and the LaTeX symbol.

  5. Double factorial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_factorial

    In mathematics, the double factorial of a number n, denoted by n‼, is the product of all the positive integers up to n that have the same parity (odd or even) as n. [1] That is, n ! ! = ∏ k = 0 ⌈ n 2 ⌉ − 1 ( n − 2 k ) = n ( n − 2 ) ( n − 4 ) ⋯ . {\displaystyle n!!=\prod _{k=0}^{\left\lceil {\frac {n}{2}}\right\rceil -1}(n-2k ...

  6. List of representations of e - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_representations_of_e

    The mathematical constant e can be represented in a variety of ways as a real number.Since e is an irrational number (see proof that e is irrational), it cannot be represented as the quotient of two integers, but it can be represented as a continued fraction.

  7. Derangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derangement

    (n factorial) is the number of n-permutations; !n (n subfactorial) is the number of derangements – n-permutations where all of the n elements change their initial places. In combinatorial mathematics , a derangement is a permutation of the elements of a set in which no element appears in its original position.

  8. Factorial number system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorial_number_system

    The factorial number system is sometimes defined with the 0! place omitted because it is always zero (sequence A007623 in the OEIS). In this article, a factorial number representation will be flagged by a subscript "!". In addition, some examples will have digits delimited by a colon. For example, 3:4:1:0:1:0! stands for
