What is a Euler Number?
Euler numbers are a sequence En of integers defined by the Taylor expansion:
$$( \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} {\frac {E_{n}}{n!}} \cdot t^{n} = {\frac {2}{e^{t}+e^{-t}}} = \displaystyle {\frac {1}{\cosh t}})$$
Euler numbers appear in the coeffients of Euler polynomials and
the Taylor series expansions of the secant (sec(x) = 1 / cos(x)
)
and hyperbolic secant (1 / cosh(x)
) functions (through which euler numbers are defined).
They also occur in combinatorics,
specifically when counting the number of alternating permutations of a set with an even number of elements
(also known as zig zag numbers).
How do you calculate a Euler number?
All odd En are equal to zero, while even numbers alternate between positive (n = 4 * k) and negative (n = 4 * k + 2) integers.
The nth euler number can be calculated through several methods.
