Answer is Calculus | Comment 5 of 7 |
in 2-D the area of a sphere is 4 * pi * r^2
in 3-D the volume is just the integral of the area which is 4/3 * pi * r^3
so in 4-D the "hypervolume" would be the integral again so it would be 1/3 * pi * r^4

waala, whats with these sequences, maybe the infinte sum of those equals to the equation just found.
