BETAFUNCTION (a,b)
- and are any positive real numbers.
and 
are any positive real numbers.Description
- This function returns the value of the Beta function.
- Beta function is also called the Euler integral of the first kind.
- To evaluate the Beta function we usually use the Gamma function.
.
.
- For x,y positive we define the Beta function by:
Examples
- BETAFUNCTION(10,23) = 1.550093439705759e-9
- BETAFUNCTION(9.1,7.4) = 0.00001484129272494359
- BETAFUNCTION(876,432) = NaN
