1. Factorial: if n is a positive integer, n! is the product of the first n positive integers, and is read as "n factorial". 2. Double factorial: if n is a positive integer, n!! is the product of all positive integers up to n with the same parity as n, and is read as "the double factorial of n". 3.
The styled characters are mostly located in the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block, but the 24 characters in cells with a pink background are located in the letterlike symbols block, for example, ā (script capital r) is at U+211B rather than the expected U+1D4AD which is reserved.
A number n that has more divisors than any x < n is a highly composite number (though the first two such numbers are 1 and 2). Composite numbers have also been called "rectangular numbers", but that name can also refer to the pronic numbers, numbers that are the product of two consecutive integers. Yet another way to classify composite numbers ...
Every Euclid number is congruent to 3 modulo 4 since the primorial of which it is composed is twice the product of only odd primes and thus congruent to 2 modulo 4. This property implies that no Euclid number can be a square. For all n ≥ 3 the last digit of E n is 1, since E n − 1 is divisible by 2 and 5.
An overline, overscore, or overbar, is a typographical feature of a horizontal line drawn immediately above the text. In old mathematical notation, an overline was called a vinculum, a notation for grouping symbols which is expressed in modern notation by parentheses, though it persists for symbols under a radical sign.
Corner quotes, also called “Quine quotes”; for quasi-quotation, i.e. quoting specific context of unspecified (“variable”) expressions; [3] also used for denoting Gödel number; [4] for example “āGā” denotes the Gödel number of G. (Typographical note: although the quotes appears as a “pair” in unicode (231C and 231D), they ...

The probability is sometimes written to distinguish it from other functions and measure P to avoid having to define "P is a probability" and () is short for ({: ()}), where is the event space, is a random variable that is a function of (i.e., it depends upon ), and is some outcome of interest within the domain specified by (say, a particular ...
