| | r""" |
| | Simplify combinatorial expressions. |
| | |
| | Explanation |
| | =========== |
| | |
| | This function takes as input an expression containing factorials, |
| | binomials, Pochhammer symbol and other "combinatorial" functions, |
| | and tries to minimize the number of those functions and reduce |
| | the size of their arguments. |
| | |
| | The algorithm works by rewriting all combinatorial functions as |
| | gamma functions and applying gammasimp() except simplification |
| | steps that may make an integer argument non-integer. See docstring |
| | of gammasimp for more information. |
| | |
| | Then it rewrites expression in terms of factorials and binomials by |
| | rewriting gammas as factorials and converting (a+b)!/a!b! into |
| | binomials. |
| | |
| | If expression has gamma functions or combinatorial functions |
| | with non-integer argument, it is automatically passed to gammasimp. |
| | |
| | Examples |
| | ======== |
| | |
| | >>> from sympy.simplify import combsimp |
| | >>> from sympy import factorial, binomial, symbols |
| | >>> n, k = symbols('n k', integer = True) |
| | |
| | >>> combsimp(factorial(n)/factorial(n - 3)) |
| | n*(n - 2)*(n - 1) |
| | >>> combsimp(binomial(n+1, k+1)/binomial(n, k)) |
| | (n + 1)/(k + 1) |
