convert/hypergeom - convert functions in an expression to hypergeometric form
Calling Sequence
convert( expr, hypergeom, opt_1, opt_2, )
Parameters
expr
-
expression
opt_i
optional arguments, see convert[to_special_function]
Description
Converts the functions found in expr, including sum and Sum, to their hypergeometric forms when possible. For sums, no attempt is made to ensure that the resulting hypergeometric function is convergent or terminates.
Examples
For negative a we have
Elementary functions are not converted by default (see convert[to_special_function])
To convert them use any of the optional arguments: include=elementary, or include=all
