Numbers like pi, e and phi often turn up in unexpected places in science and mathematics. Pascal's triangle and the Fibonacci sequence also seem inexplicably widespread in nature. Then there's the ...

Most engineering labs have digital oscilloscopes, but many engineers don’t fully explore their features. Among the more interesting features of a digital oscilloscope is its math channel, which can ...

In the process of debugging and validating both digital and RF designs, the oscilloscope Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) function and a variety of other math functions can prove valuable to designers ...

The Handbook of Mathematical Functions by Milton Abramovich and Irene Stegun is the one book I would wish to have on a desert island. Unlike a novel, it withstands infinities of rereadings. Its ...

A rule for creating a "y" output from an "x" input. For example, the y value of the function f(x) = 15x is 30 if x is 2. THIS DEFINITION IS FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. All other reproduction requires ...

There you are in your introductory physics course. The course requirements say that you have to be in Calculus 101 (it's probably not called that) in order to enroll in Physics 101. Why? There are two ...
