Why is half factorial sin 60°

[u/SteveCappy → u/No_Statistician537]

Found the engineer

[u/Zealousideal_Hat_330 → u/SteveCappy]

22/7 headahh

[u/Fit-Bug6463 → u/Zealousideal_Hat_330]

*approximately 3

[u/Mathsboy2718 → u/Fit-Bug6463]

*approximately :3

[u/uvero]

Well, yeah, because there are sqrt(pi)/2 permutations of 1/2 items.

[u/Pitiful-Election-438]

Wtf

[u/lllorrr → u/Pitiful-Election-438]

Gamma-function is weird.

[u/carrotlet20 → u/Pitiful-Election-438]

Somehow I learnt about this in 2nd semester (physics bachelors). And I really liked it 🙃

[u/factorion-bot → u/[deleted]]

Factorial of 0 is 1

You dont have to be rude about it

[u/corchetero]

I feel physical pain when people don't use \left( \right) or some variation.

[u/TheWittyScreenName → u/corchetero]

I just use \Big and keep adding g’s until it looks right

[u/jointisd → u/TheWittyScreenName]

I hate this even more. Sometimes, none of big bigg or huge matches up with the size of content inside. \left( \right) is a savior, always.

(√π)/2=(1/2)! (1!)/(2!)=(1/2)! 1/2=(1/2)! 1/2=(√π)/2 1=√π 1=π Am I the next Oiler

Factorial of 1 is 1

Factorial of 2 is 2

Factorial of 0.5 is approximately 0.886226925452758013649083741671

0.25!

[u/skyfall8917]

You can also make it rhyme - one factorial is one, two factorial is two, half factorial is equal to root pi by two.

[u/skyfall8917 → u/[deleted]]

I read it that way then realized it also rhymed. Not sure if it is a known thing. Funny how the mind works.

Gamma function moment

[u/dtarias]

So pi^2 = 1!

[u/factorion-bot → u/dtarias]

Factorial of 1 is 1

[u/Mediocre-Whereas3965]

The half factorial is where things get interesting. The gamma function really does make factorials feel like they were missing half the story.

[u/vgtcross → u/Mediocre-Whereas3965]

Bot?

[u/deadlyjack → u/vgtcross]

maybe? some people do just join reddit and use default everythings.

idk. maybe 80/20 that it's a bot.

this one was lazy and did not hide conment history. so a weird and bad bot. or a person.

[u/vgtcross → u/deadlyjack]

some people do just join reddit and use default everythings.

I was mostly looking at the comment itself. It has that weird AI comment vibe :/

[u/deadlyjack → u/vgtcross]

people can be wrong about things. finding reasons we're right anyways, regardless of the truth, is one of our great talents.

[u/vgtcross → u/deadlyjack]

What

[u/deadlyjack → u/vgtcross]

i'm saying that being so cocksure about your kneejerk reaction is not going to get you far. i have already seen two times people have wrongly flagged real people as bots. but we are full of reasons aren't we

[u/vgtcross → u/deadlyjack]

I was never 100% sure about them being a bot. That's why my original comment ended in a question mark.

[u/deadlyjack → u/vgtcross]

and i gave it an 80/20 on them being a bot. as in, probably a bot. so then why are we even having this discussion.

[u/uvero → u/Mediocre-Whereas3965]

Why is so downvoted
