56 ## The validity of this formula can easily be checked by expanding |

57 ## the binomial coefficients in both formulas as factorials. It can |

3369
|
62 ## which suffers from the ill-conditioning of the Hilbert matrix, and the |
|
|
63 ## finite precision of your computer's floating point arithmetic. |

80 ## The point about the second formula above is that when vectorized, |
|
|
81 ## p(k) is evaluated for k=1:n which involves O(n) calls to bincoeff |
|
|
82 ## instead of O(n^2). |
|
|
83 ## |
|
|
84 ## We evaluate the expression as (-1)^(i+j)*(p(i)*p(j))/(i+j-1) except |
|
|
85 ## when p(i)*p(j) would overflow. In cases where p(i)*p(j) is an exact |
|
|
86 ## machine number, the result is also exact. Otherwise we calculate |
|
|
87 ## (-1)^(i+j)*p(i)*(p(j)/(i+j-1)). |

|
89 ## The Octave bincoeff routine uses transcendental functions (gammaln |
|
3889
|
90 ## and exp) rather than multiplications, for the sake of speed. |
|
|
91 ## However, it rounds the answer to the nearest integer, which |
|
|
92 ## justifies the claim about exactness made above. |
