Calling Sequence

Parameters

Description

Examples

Calling Sequence

convert(expr, factorial, indets)

Parameters

expr

-

expression

indets

-

(optional) indeterminate or set of indeterminates

Description

• 

The convert/factorial function converts GAMMAs (expressions expressed in terms of the gamma function), binomials and multinomial coefficients in an expression to factorials.

• 

If an indeterminate or set of indeterminates is specified, then only GAMMAs and binomials involving a specified indeterminate are converted to the factorial function.

• 

The convert(..., `!`) calling sequence is equivalent to the convert(..., factorial) calling sequence.
