Hello, can someone tell me how to find the harmonic number in R. I know how to find it on Wolfram Mathematica using command HarmonicNumber[n]. for eg, HarmonicNumber[-(3/4)]. But I don't know how to find it on R. I don't know which package or command should be used.
I know just enough math and also just enough r to give you the implementation of the common definition
as seen here:
the n-th harmonic number is the sum of the reciprocals of the first n natural numbers
Harmonic number - Wikipedia
harmonicnumber <- function(n){
k <- seq_len(n)
-sum((-1)^k*(1/k) * choose(n,k))
}
This doesn't cover -3/4 as that is not a natural number
Oh I see. Thank you so much ya.
