Hello
I want to calculate natural logarithm of sum of combinations as follow: (R code)
{
com_sum=choose(2000000,482)*choose(1000000,118)+choose(2000000,483)*choose(1000000,117)+...+choose(2000000,i)*choose(1000000,600-i)+...+choose(2000000,600)*choose(1000000,0) #calculate the sum
result=log(com_sum) #calculate the log of the sum
}
But every element of the com_sum is Inf, so I can't get the result
Thank you in advance
Yours sincerely
