Numerator of the n-th series entry for the convergent form of Stirling's Approximation for the gamma function. ln gamma z = (z - 1/2) ln z - z + ln(2pi)/2 + sum(c(n)/(z+1)^(n), {n, 1, infinity}], where z^(n) is the rising factorial. |

FORMULA
|
c(n) = integral(x^(n)*(x - 1/2), {x, 0, 1}) / n
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
c(1) = integral(x*(x - 1/2), {x, 0, 1}) / 1 = integral(x^2 - x/2, {x, 0, 1}) = x^3/3 - x^2/4|{x, 0, 1} = 1/12

MATHEMATICA

Rising[z_, n_Integer/; n>0] := z Rising[z + 1, n - 1]; Rising[z_, 0] := 1; c[n_Integer/; n>0] := Integrate[Rising[x, n] (x - 1/2), {x, 0, 1}] / n;
