Let a ≈ 0.46163 be the positive real number that minimizes the factorial, x!. Then Euler's constant γ is given by
and
where ζ(s) is the Riemann zeta function. Both formulas follow trivially from the properties of the digamma function, but if I didn't know that, I'd find them pretty neat.
I work on a few free software projects, notably SymPy and mpmath. In real life, I study engineering physics and mathematics at Chalmers University of Technology.
