Maths.
It's interesting (to me) that in the US, they will shorten "statistics" to "stats", but not "mathematics".
As someone who went thru differential, integral and engineering calculus I approve this post
I'm almost certain that your avatar did not.
'Cause of bone spurs.
Only because the examination markers didn't understand covfefe theory.
He knows the scientific names of beings animalculous.
Man am I glad I dont have to learn this stuff anymore
There is nothing like a little light reading before bed.

I pictured him doing people's homework. 😆
The author Robert Ghrist is an amazing expositor of maths. There is a YouTube series that accompanies these books.
While I have printed books with this information, having access to it online (and hence practically everywhere) is more useful. Next time a niece or nephew asks for help with their homework, I'll have access to the bits I can't recall clearly, like how to integrate x^(sin x) dx.
These books cover multi-variable calculus. They won't tell you how to integrate that single variable function.
Yeah good luck integrating that one - http://m.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=integrate+x%5E%28sin%28x%…
Thanks OP!
Vectors and matrices are elementary linear algebra, not calculus.
Vectors and Matrices are essential when doing Multivariable Calculus.. It is used extensively in physics and engineering, specifically when describing electromagnetic and gravitational fields, and finite element analysis.
If you are including everything that multivariable calculus CAN apply to, then why are quaternions, sedenions and trigintaduonions not in book 1? :p
The operative word is essential. A Matrix field and/or vector array is not limited to expressions of linearity.. nor are they limited to algebraic expressions. Matrices are especially useful in the world of computational mathematics. They allow us to disseminate large volumes of data. If you studied engineering you'd appreciate the number crunching power of Matlab.
@[Deactivated]: Another silly statement born out of profound ignorance. A Design Engineer's primary role is design. Matlab/Simulink/Calculators/MCAD are tools we use to expedite the process. Engineers don't have the time to build GUIs, Plots, Graphs or mathematical functions from basic principles in Python or C++.
Vectors and matrices are elementary linear algebra, not calculus. ..this statement proves to me that you didn't get into computer science, engineering or any of physical sciences. You really should refrain from commenting on a thread that is above your pay grade.
@knackers: You are funny. You are so busy beating your own naive, self-absorbed Ron Burgandy drum without understanding even how computers work. You have trumpeted yourself as a Matlab guru without realising that Matlab runs happily on computers with no calculus instructions in the ALU at all. The native instructions are algebraic. LINPACK, the underlying software that you need kindergarten, I mean Matlab to even grasp, was originally developed on computers with no hardware multiply or division instructions, let alone calculus operations.
Explain how calculus is possible on even simple microcontrollers WITHOUT ANY calculus commands in the instruction set, lol. I'm waiting. :p Magic!
Oh, that's right, you can perform calculus on machines that only perform native linear algebra and no calculus. Maybe you will work out that numeric calculus is an abstraction layer built on top of native algebraic commands. It's embarrassing for your pay grade that you think things are broken down into calculus to be processed rather than algebraic operations so as to be generic. Please continue staying away from programming, as you, no doubt, were. All that numeric goodness that you thought was calculus because of a UI has been linear algebra and you were too dim to understand it. Everything you love about Matlab is possible on a computer with zero native ability to perform calculus, only algebra. You really should stick to analytical calculus, because Luddites, like you, who interlope numerics but can't program and don't understand underlying computer mathematics are a liability.
(You might also want to drop the pay grade falluting, as you just publicly self-implicated that you didn't profit from the dotcom boom right there.)
LINPACK. LINPACK. LINPACK. Makes you wonder a bit what the LIN in LINPACK means.
@[Deactivated]: Desperate attempt at straw manning and/or obfuscation. Vectors and matrices are elementary linear algebra, not calculus. <— factually incorrect
@knackers: "Vectors and Matrices are essential when doing Multivariable Calculus."
Wrong. You can use arrays. You can do it with simple pointer dereferencing. Don't know much about RISC architecture do you? You could do it entirely in the register file. If you could program or understood simple computer architecture you would know that.
@knackers: Wrong, if you understood programming. Which you don't. Can't tell the difference between hardware and software, can you. Seriously, don't dabble in numerics if you can't program and have no idea about computer architecture.
How many ways do you think it's possible on the 68000 family? (Hint: it's more than zero.)
@knackers: Which instruction would you add to the ARM architecture?
Edit 1 while knackers googles an answer: zzzz.
Edit 2 while knackers googles an answer: wondering how knackers chooses numeric solvers if they don't understand number format precision error.
@[Deactivated]: Do you want me to send you on a fact finding mission?… is this how this works? I'm way too old for this. I don't think you studied calculus at a tertiary level. It's not an indictment on your intelligence. I'm sure you're very capable.
@knackers: Thought so. Is it wrong for me to delight at watching you squirm given both a computer and maths question? You could even use your precious matrices!
What happened to mathnerd and watchnerd?
Something is not adding up here.
On the face of it, 'twas a marriage made in nerd heaven.
Sweet. Was just getting my daughter started on Calculus. This should do. She doesn't need her ABCs when all she needs are her XYZs (and her X' Y' Z').
What hoping last year was the last time I would hear calculus… oh well. thanks OP, grabbed them anyway

i hate math but still get it.
