@polymathematic: Reply to @wyatthadley alright, gamma(4.5) it is! Here’s a quick overview of the gamma function and how it works. #math #maths #mathematics #teachertok

Why do you write "x 1 x 0!"? Seems redundant to include every time.

I've never heard of including 0! in the definition of factorial. Where did you get it? Seems confusing.

Hm so Wolfram Alpha must be using Taylor polynomials to compute this. What's the taylor polynomial for the gamma function 👀

What if we ask (see ur prev. video) “how many ways can we arrange three and a half things?” [defn of factorial] which would be 4 individual items=24

I like this video. I think it's a good illustration of the fact that for a lot of things in math, there isn't a right answer so much as a conventional

If it’s weird and a factorial I’m throwing it in the gamma function

Intuitively, I think the geometric sum should be closer as exponential growth is closer to factorial growth than linear growth is.

I understand that 3.5 is not a whole number but why can't you solve it by 1x2x3.5 to get 7?

I’ve always just thought of the gamma function as the continuous analog of the factorial function.

for some reason I immediately thought 18 because it looks like half way between 6 and 24.

What if we went back to imagining them as objects again? 3.5 pies could be arranged in the same ways as 4 pies.

All numbers between 6 and 24 must be present, but not ONLY those numbers, so it doesn’t have to be between the two necessarily

maybe 3.5 base ten is a whole?number is a different base system like a 12 base or a 60 base?

I still think this function is so cool. I proved it last summer as an effort to teach myself proofs but I still don’t know WHY it works… 😂
