This is the product symbol in mathematics, denoted as the uppercase Greek letter Pi. It is used to indicate the product of a sequence of factors.
This is the product symbol in mathematics, denoted as the uppercase Greek letter Pi. It is used to indicate the product of a sequence of factors. It is similar to the summation symbol (\( \htmlClass{sdt-0000000080}{\sum} \)), but instead of summing, it multiplies a sequence of terms. The general form is \(\prod_{\htmlClass{sdt-0000000018}{i} = \htmlClass{sdt-0000000121}{a}}^{\htmlClass{sdt-0000000033}{b}} \htmlClass{sdt-0000000003}{x}_{\htmlClass{sdt-0000000018}{i}} \) meaning the product of all \(\htmlClass{sdt-0000000003}{x}_{\htmlClass{sdt-0000000018}{i}}\) terms for \(\htmlClass{sdt-0000000018}{i}\) ranging from \(\htmlClass{sdt-0000000121}{a}\) to \(\htmlClass{sdt-0000000033}{b}\).
