Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AVOID SILLY MISTAKES IN MATHEMATICS Learning math not only requires strong fundamentals but also a lot of practice, and making mistakes is part of that process. Making errors in math is a good thing, and can help the students to learn and explore math in a better way. However, repeating same mistakes again and again over an extended period will not benefit the students and will be harmful to their confidence. There are different types of silly errors that students make. Students should try to identify these mistakes with the help of techniques explained in this book and after that should make efforts to cut down and rectify these mistakes for getting good grades in schools. The Categories of silly mistakes are: 1. Careless or Casual Silly Mistakes 2. Calculation Errors 3. Conceptual Errors This book is an effort to guide students, teachers, and parents to take necessary measures to improve upon the habit of committing silly mistakes by students. The various techniques mentioned in this book if practiced or taught to students in the correct manner will help them reducing the quantum of stupid mistakes to a minimal and will further improve their confidence. The book also includes a collection of 100 most common silly mistakes committed by students in Arithmetic, Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus and other branches of Mathematics across the globe in the age group of 10 to 18 years. After going through the book, students will also be able to learn about some of their misconceptions in Mathematics like: 1. 0 is even or odd? 2. Why 0/0 is not 1? 3. 0 is prime or composite? 4. Volume and Capacity of a container are not same, 5. Perimeter and Circumference of a 2-D figure are not same, 6. Pi is 22/7; still, it is irrational, 7. Why x to the power 0 is 1? 8. Why factorial 0 is 1? 9. What are the factors and multiples of 0? 10. All real numbers are polynomials. and much more ABOUT THE AUTHOR Rajesh Sarswat is presently working in a senior capacity in the Government of India. Despite the pressing bureaucratic compulsions he has to negotiate with on a daily basis, he pursues his keen interest in the field of Mathematics and has done a lot of research on various techniques and concepts on quick Mathematics. This book is the result of his extensive studies in this field for the last 20 years. He qualified in 13 All India Level Competitive Examinations, some of which are the toughest and the most gruesome, along with his research and writing work. His earlier book "Be a Human Calculator" became very popular among students due to the observation based calculation tricks explained in the book. The present book is his fourth book. Apart from writing on mathematical subjects, Rajesh also writes fiction and creative non-fiction. He is also having a passion for teaching mathematics and is a very popular teacher for his innovative and entertaining ways of presenting the subject. Rajesh lives in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, India with his wife and son.

The topic is important, but far too often ignored. This is the first book to explain the underlying math in a way that’s accessible to database professionals. Just as importantly, if not more so, this book goes beyond the abstract by showing readers how to apply that math in ways that will make them more productive in their jobs. What’s in this book will "open the eyes" of most readers to the great power, elegance, and simplicity inherent in relational database technology.
Download or read book Street Fighting Mathematics written by Sanjoy Mahajan and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2010-03-05 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An antidote to mathematical rigor mortis, teaching how to guess answers without needing a proof or an exact calculation. In problem solving, as in street fighting, rules are for fools: do whatever works—don't just stand there! Yet we often fear an unjustified leap even though it may land us on a correct result. Traditional mathematics teaching is largely about solving exactly stated problems exactly, yet life often hands us partly defined problems needing only moderately accurate solutions. This engaging book is an antidote to the rigor mortis brought on by too much mathematical rigor, teaching us how to guess answers without needing a proof or an exact calculation. In Street-Fighting Mathematics, Sanjoy Mahajan builds, sharpens, and demonstrates tools for educated guessing and down-and-dirty, opportunistic problem solving across diverse fields of knowledge—from mathematics to management. Mahajan describes six tools: dimensional analysis, easy cases, lumping, picture proofs, successive approximation, and reasoning by analogy. Illustrating each tool with numerous examples, he carefully separates the tool—the general principle—from the particular application so that the reader can most easily grasp the tool itself to use on problems of particular interest. Street-Fighting Mathematics grew out of a short course taught by the author at MIT for students ranging from first-year undergraduates to graduate students ready for careers in physics, mathematics, management, electrical engineering, computer science, and biology. They benefited from an approach that avoided rigor and taught them how to use mathematics to solve real problems.

Download or read book Advanced Problems in Mathematics written by Stephen Siklos and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-16 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new and expanded edition is intended to help candidates prepare for entrance examinations in mathematics and scientific subjects, including STEP (Sixth Term Examination Paper). STEP is an examination used by Cambridge Colleges for conditional offers in mathematics. They are also used by some other UK universities and many mathematics departments recommend that their applicants practice on the past papers even if they do not take the examination. Advanced Problems in Mathematics bridges the gap between school and university mathematics, and prepares students for an undergraduate mathematics course. The questions analysed in this book are all based on past STEP questions and each question is followed by a comment and a full solution. The comments direct the reader's attention to key points and put the question in its true mathematical context. The solutions point students to the methodology required to address advanced mathematical problems critically and independently. This book is a must read for any student wishing to apply to scientific subjects at university level and for anyone interested in advanced mathematics.
