... Factorial provides a means for expressing the answer to any natural number multiplied by all the preceding natural numbers. The symbol for factorial is an exclamation point. Thus, 5! = 5∙4∙3∙2∙1 = 120. Since zero is not a natural number, 0! has no meaning according to the definition above, but we de ...

A Note on Nested Sums

Looking at the proof of Lemma 1 we see that the two main ingredients were the identities which allowed us to write a sum of binomial coefficients as a single binomial coefficient and rewrite a product of two binomial coefficients so that we could pull one term out. When our function is no longer a s ...
