THE B AND T FUNCTIONS

Thus P n = G- n . But Gr n = G, hence P n , is convergent and G =
lim P n .
223. Euler s Constant. This is defined by the convergent series
It is easy to see at once that
by 218, 7). By calculation it is found that
C=. 577215-.
224. Another expression of G is

G =

where C is the Eulerian constant.
For when a > 0,
