My Math Blog
Welcome to my blog. My plan is to write about math topics that interest me and, hopefully, interest you as well.
It will probably take a few weeks to develop each topic. The process is a bit like creating an app. Every few days you add a new feature but most days you just polish the existing features. So make sure you come back often to see what's new.
If you would like to leave a comment, ask a question, or suggest a new topic, please send me an email.
Here is the topic I'm working on right now:
Interest and Loans in Excel
How do you calculate interest using Excel?
Coming soon! |
... and here are all the topics so far, arranged, more or less,
from easiest to hardest:
The Travelling Salesman Problem
In what order should you visit 20 cities to minimize the distance travelled?
The Inside or Outside Problem
How can you program a computer to tell if a point is inside an object or not?
The Roller Coaster and the Brachistochrone Problem
How should you design a roller coaster to give the fastest ride?
Scalar and Vector Fields
Scalar and vector fields, including models to explain the meaning of Green's, Gauss', and Stokes' Theorems.
