Hi, this is quite a specific question. I am wondering if people know of any ways of computing stirling numbers of the first kind efficiently? The only way I know of is to recursively compute s(n+1,m) = s(n,m-1) - n * s(n,m) I needed a more efficient method that can compute or approximate well s(n,m) for large values of n and m (n about at most 1e7, m about 1e5) without needing to compute all values up to the given values of n and m. thank you, yw |
