Currently Playing: Zeta Explained #64: Computational Methods for Zeta

This is the 64th video in a series explaining the Riemann zeta function. The idea of the series is to start with basics and eventually work our way to advanced topics. We follow the text "Riemann's Zeta Function" by H.M. Edwards. This particular video covers four computational methods to compute zeta. 00:00 - Intro 00:36 - Part 1: Naive Sum 06:17 - Part 2: Alternating Sum 11:51 - Part 3: Euler-Maclaurin formula 23:38 - Interlude: The Critical Line 30:21 - Part 4: Riemann-Siegel formula 36:21 - All 4 algorithms together 40:15 - Final thoughts
