Re: Limits!yeah.i got confused or whatever... The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't. “It's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!” ― Richard Feynman “A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón #352 2012-02-17 10:55:35
Re: Limits!Did you see how this problem ties into what we are doing in the other thread? In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. #353 2012-02-17 21:24:22
Re: Limits!hi bobbym The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't. “It's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!” ― Richard Feynman “A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón #354 2012-02-17 21:30:51
Re: Limits!Stirling's formula is an asymptotic form! Just like the ones we are getting over there. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. #355 2012-02-17 21:40:37
Re: Limits!i don't get it now! o.O The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't. “It's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!” ― Richard Feynman “A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón #356 2012-02-17 21:47:34
Re: Limits!The answer we are getting in both thread are just aproximations. They get better and better for higher n's. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. #357 2012-02-17 22:07:19

Re: Limits!Very good. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.

Re: Limits!Is it right? In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. #363 2012-02-17 22:47:11
Re: Limits!btw,that's not correct. it should be 2.
