Numerical Integration in 1D
Dear UseRs, I'm curious about the derivative of n!. We know that Gamma(n+1)=n! So when on takes the derivative of Gamma(n+1) we get Int(ln(x)*exp(-x)*x^n,x=0..Inf). I've tried code like
integrand<-function(x) {log(x)*exp(x)*x^n}
integrate(integrand,lower=0,upper=Inf)
It seems that R doesn't like to integrate for any n, and I was wondering if anyone knew a way around this? -Max
