Mathematica Asked on June 24, 2021
Let’s say I have assigned the follow value to s
by
s = Floor[Log[n]]
Then I want to compute
Sum[r^j, {j, 0, s}]
but with s
as a symbol, because otherwise the result is a bit difficult to read. But replacing s
by Hold[s]
and HoldForm[s]
both fails to achieve what I want. s
is always evaluated in the output.
You can replace it after Sum
Sum[r^j, {j, 0, s}]
(-1 + r^(1 + s))/(-1 + r)
(-1 + r^(1 + s))/(-1 + r) /. s -> Floor[Log[n]]
(*(-1 + r^(1 + Floor[Log[n]]))/(-1 + r)*)
It's not recommend to directly use =
, better in a With
, or use /.
instead.
