JS Wiki Maths update: Inequalities section added with examples and audio explanations.

Playing around with this: http://wolframalpha.com site. It has been brought to my attention by the abdbg; and he has made a more comprehensive post about look and features.

It has been showing up on the twit radar, and other places.  I used it in class today to generate random numbers, but then gave up on it (for that task) in favour of a simpler tool http://www.random.org/  

Nobody seems to exactly try to know what to make of it.  Is it a search engine or what?? 

I am calling it a data stack attacker.  It attacks the data and makes interesting reports.  One of the twit guests called it the end of thought.  Probably not especially since from a science/engineering/math perspective it just gives some great new explorative directions.

If you are interested in math and science it is undeniably fun in the search to the right I typed in:  ”Tarqeq vs. Pan” and get some great comparisons and data with one query “zero” clicks.

I think it would be pretty hard to get comprehensive data like that with one click on google, but I would use google to find a new car.

Give it a try have some fun with it, report back some of your interesting queries.

matrices updated, what is a scalar, vector, and matrix.  2×2’s and m x n’s … it is a work in progress… js math wiki

here is a snapshot of my mind:

I thought this was fun! Taken with Blackberry touch screen celly 3.1 megapixel camera .. pretty sweet.

I found this on a quick internet search of myself (yes I search myself);

this is a lab I did at STCC, and had some insight as to force applied in a spring problem
where a force is applied for some time, and then turned off. What is equilibrium while the external force is on? What happens when the force is shut off? What is the equilibrium after some time t? here is the link:

http://www.stcc.edu/math/labs/math455/Lab3.html, this is perhaps an overestimate, but I had good fun with this lab.

Mandelbrot Swan created with Fraqtive

Maybe I am behind the times here as MIT released this in 1999, but it is awesome.

One of the worlds greatest universities releasing their educational content for anyone in the world to view, study, and better themselves free of charge.

the site is: http://ocw.mit.edu

they have a lot of content; video lectures, problem sets, lecture notes, and more. Topics from many departments; Mathematics, History and many more.

I can not speak for other content areas, but obviously MIT is known for mathematics and technical education throughout the world. I have been studying the Differential Equations Course 18.03 and there are many other courses I intend to take a look at.

I have tackled the first of 32 lectures of the 18.03 and am working on the first problem set that corresponds to the lecture. In other words do more than watch, do the homework and actually learn stuff. I look forward to completing this course and “taking” more courses.

MIT is clear about the mission; this is NOT an MIT education, but it will give you insight to their educational process, the world, and make you a better person. Just like reading a book will. You get bragging rights and understanding if you take it seriously.

I will probably also study some Engineering and Linear Algebra courses. I think you should take some too.
