In the late 19th century, Karl Weierstrass invented a fractal-like function that was decried as nothing less than a “deplorable evil.” In time, it would transform the foundations of mathematics.

NIST has released the Digital Library of Mathematical Functions (DLMF) and its printed companion, the NIST Handbook of Mathematical Functions, the much-anticipated successors to the agency's most ...

Graphs of Sine and Cosine 1.2 An applet illustrating how the graphs of sine and cosine are related to the unit circle. Transformations of Functions 1.3 An applet illustrating how transformations ...

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 ...

High school math, and algebra, in particular, is in crisis. Although some students thrive on the pathway to calculus, most do not. Algebra I is the single most failed course in American high schools.

Even the simplest digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) or digitizer includes some form of waveform mathematics. Waveform math extends the usefulness of these data acquisition-based instruments. The ...

How much math knowledge do you need for machine learning and deep learning? Some people say not much. Others say a lot. Both are correct, depending on what you want to achieve. There are plenty of ...
