Description
|
|
•
|
The IsProperHypergeometricTerm(T,n,k) command returns true if is a proper hypergeometric term. Otherwise, it returns false.
|
•
|
The IsHolonomic(T,n,k) command returns true if the bivariate hypergeometric term is holonomic. Otherwise, it returns false.
|
•
|
It can be shown that is proper if and only if it is holonomic.
|
|
Note: If is a proper hypergeometric term, the termination of Zeilberger's algorithm is guaranteed.
