Ramanujan: Twelve Lectures on Subjects Suggested by His Life and Work, 3rd ed. Concrete Mathematics: A Foundation for Computer Science, 2nd ed. For example,  e^x = \sum_{n=0}^\infty {1\over n!} Most generating functions share four important properties: 1. New York: Generating Functions As usual, our starting point is a random experiment with probability measure ℙ on an underlying sample space. function is sometimes said to "enumerate" New York: Academic Press, 1994. A generating function is a (possibly infinite) polynomial whose coefficients correspond to terms in a sequence of numbers a n. a_n. An Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. The interest of this notation is that certain natural operations on generating functions lead to powerful methods for dealing with recurrences on a n. De nition 1. using generating functions.
