Summation Calculator (`Sigma`)
Answer
= `0.333333333333333*n^3 + 0.5*n^2 + 0.166666666666667*n`
Do you have any suggestions to improve this page ?Cet outil calcul la somme d'une suite de termes, notée comme suit,
`\sum_{k=p}^{n} u_k = u_p + u_(p+1) + ... + u_(n-1) + u_n`
• k is the sommation index,
• p et n are respectively the lower and upper range of the sommation, which means that the sum of the `u_k` terms begin from k=p and end at k=n.
How to use this calculator ?
'index' field | Input a single letter which denotes the sommation index. Example: i or k |
---|---|
'Calculate sum of' field | Expression (above `u_i`) to sum. this field may include a secondary variable, e.g. `u_i = i + m` see more details below. |
'from index' field | lower limit of the index range (denoted 'p' above). You may input a number or a secondary variable. |
'to index' field | upper limit of the index range (denoted 'n' ci-dessus). You may input a number or a secondary variable or oo (double o) for '+infinity' which is useful for infinite sum calculations. |
