Description

Constants built into RobExtremes.

Usage

EULERMASCHERONICONSTANT
APERYCONSTANT

Details

RobExtremes has a small number of built-in constants.

The following constants are available:

• EULERMASCHERONICONSTANT: the Euler Mascheroni constant

  gamma=-digamma(1)

  given in http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Euler-MascheroniConstant.html (48);

• APERYCONSTANT: the Apéry constant

  zeta(3) = 5/2 sum_{k>=0} (-1)^(k-1)/(k^3 * choose(2k,k))

  as given in http://mathworld.wolfram.com/AperysConstant.html, equation (8);

These are implemented as variables in the RobExtremes name space taking appropriate values.

Examples
