BinomialMatrix
¶ A class that computes binomial coefficients up to a certain power.
The binomial coefficient is defined as:
\[ \left(\begin{array}{ c } n k \end{array}right\) = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} \]with both \(n\) and \(k\) nonnegative integers and \(k \le n\)This class uses recurrence relations to avoid computing factorials directly, making it both more efficient and numerically stable.
