Special Values For Fractional Arguments
There are the following special analytic values for fractional arguments between 0 and 1, given by the integral
More may be generated from the recurrence relation or from the reflection relation .
For every, integer or not, we have:
Based on, we have:, where is the Euler–Mascheroni constant or, more generally, for every n we have:

Famous quotes containing the words special, values, fractional and/or arguments:
“History repeats itself, but the special call of an art which has passed away is never reproduced. It is as utterly gone out of the world as the song of a destroyed wild bird.”
—Joseph Conrad (18571924)
“During our twenties...we act toward the new adulthood the way sociologists tell us new waves of immigrants acted on becoming Americans: we adopt the host cultures values in an exaggerated and rigid fashion until we can rethink them and make them our own. Our idea of what adults are and what were supposed to be is composed of outdated childhood concepts brought forward.”
—Roger Gould (20th century)
“Hummingbird
stay for a fractional sharp
sweetness, ands gone, cant take

—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“The conclusion suggested by these arguments might be called the paradox of theorizing. It asserts that if the terms and the general principles of a scientific theory serve their purpose, i. e., if they establish the definite connections among observable phenomena, then they can be dispensed with since any chain of laws and interpretive statements establishing such a connection should then be replaceable by a law which directly links observational antecedents to observational consequents.”
—C.G. (Carl Gustav)
