pochhammer returns the value of Pochhammer's symbol calculated as
pochhammer
$$\left( z \right)_n = z\;\left( {z + 1} \right)\; \ldots \;\left( {z + n - 1} \right) = \frac{{\Gamma \left( {z + n} \right)}}{{\Gamma \left( z \right)}}$$
where \(\Gamma \left( z \right)\) is the Gamma function
pochhammer(z, n)
numeric value for the argument of the symbol
integer value for the number of terms in the symbol
The value of Pochhammer's symbol
# NOT RUN { ### ### compute the Pochhamer's symbol fo z equal to 1 and ### n equal to 5 ### pochhammer( 1, 5 ) # }
