I Don't Know Why

This is very strange. Very strange indeed. After fooling around with my calculator that allows me to do .5!, I discovered:

.5! = .5 * (-.5)!

and (this is the kicker)

(-.5)! = square root of PI.

Yep. (-.5)!(-.5)! = 3.14159265358979...

I wish I could explain why this is true, but I can't. Perhaps this man can.

The Gamma Function

I hope that clears some things up. I'm still partially confused.

Anyway...gonna work on AI.

Until next time, remember: May the sqrt(PI) be with you.
