Binomial coefficient: History, Generalizations & Binomial coefficients as polynomials

In mathematics, the binomial coefficients are the positive integers that occur as coefficients in the binomial theorem. Commonly, a binomial coefficient is indexed by a pair of integers n ≥ k ≥ 0 and is written ( n k ) {\displaystyle {\tbinom {n}{k}}} or ⁠ C ( n , k ) {\displaystyle C(n,k)} ⁠. It is the coefficient of the xk term in the polynomial…
