How to solve this:
Find The value of :: .
here P(n,r) means permutation of n things taken r at a time .
I have not study Binaomial chapter in detaied Yet . But I need this sumition whlile solving an question of PNC .
PLease Help , I have no idea for such summitions , Please Explain , Thanks a lot

We can actually evaluate the sum as Γ(n+1,1) , where Γ(a,x) is the Upper Incomplete Gamma function .
r=0∑n(rn)r!=r=0∑n(rn)∫0∞e−xxrdx=∫0∞r=0∑n(rn)e−xxrdx=∫0∞e−x(1+x)ndx=e⋅Γ(n+1,1) .
This solution has been inspired from the genius Pratik Shastri's solution to this problem .

Can you please explain the second step , not getting

Well in the second step I've just taken the Summation into the integral .
∫0∞r=0∑n(rn)e−xxrdx and we all know that r=0∑n(rn)xr=(1+x)n . And after that we just use the definition of Incomplete Upper Gamma Function .

this out.
CheckOhh , so it is gamma summition . Can we use any other approach ? Since I didn't Know anything about gamma function , or can you please tell something about this gamma function ? I'am nwe to it . Thanks

Well even I am new to Gamma function . If you study the topic from Wolfram Mathworld , you will get some understanding . It's actually quite easy , we are just exploiting the properties of Gamma Function .
Do you know how to add a question in a white box?
