The β function is defined by
β(x,y)= | ∫ |
| tx−1 (1−t)y−1 = |
|
This is
defined for x and y positive reals (to ensure the convergence of
the integral) and by extension for x and y if they are not
negative integers.
Remarkable values:
β(1,1)=1, β(n,1)= |
| , β(n,2)= |
|
The Beta command computes the β function.
