public static double HarmonicNumber(
	int n
)

Public Shared Function HarmonicNumber ( 
	n As Integer
) As Double

public:
static double HarmonicNumber(
	int n
)

static member HarmonicNumber : 
        n : int -> float 

Parameters

n  Int32

An integer.

public static double HarmonicNumber(
	int n,
	double m
)

Public Shared Function HarmonicNumber ( 
	n As Integer,
	m As Double
) As Double

public:
static double HarmonicNumber(
	int n, 
	double m
)

static member HarmonicNumber : 
        n : int * 
        m : float -> float 

Parameters

n  Int32

An integer.

m  Double

The order of the harmonic number.

Return Value

The nth generalized Harmonic Number, H^(m)_n, is the sum of the reciprocals of the integers from 1 up to n raised to the power m.
