You use the 'Vector' command. A complex number can be easily treated as a 2D vector.

You can find whatever you want on Amazon if you don't mind waiting. Highly doubt that you will get anything useful at a normal bookshop. There is probably stuff that you can download for nothing.

Yes, advanced science means that you have signed up for honours right from the beginning. If you want to graduate after three years you will have to change to the plain vanilla science degree. Its one of the reasons that I have always maintained that advanced sci is a less flexible degree...

less flexibility?

What has happened is that the first representation has given you the tangent to a point on one side of the parabola, and the second has given you the tangent to a point on the other side of the parabola. The second equation is a mirror image of the first one. So the same point in cartesian...

^ I think you need some limits of integration.

They are both correct as the parabola is symmetric about its axis. But it is probably easier to use the first.

I think they only look at attendance in borderline cases. So it could make the difference between an F and a CP.

This is quite an interesting question - it is related to the obsession the ancient Greeks had with trisecting the angle using only compass and straight edge techniques. However, I think you are going to have to use the cubic formula, because as far as I can see, tan(pi/18) is not an element...

We have already had one about 25 years ago. It is widely know that Bob Hawke is an atheist.

There seems to be quite a bit of confusion of partial differentiation with implicit differentiation in this thread. Implicit differentiation is in the syllabus; partial differentiation is not.

I think that's a good idea. Lots of job adverts ask for SAS thesedays.

Remember, if you do adv. math or sci you have to do those stupid SCIF courses. I have always thought that the advanced science degrees are a marketing exercise on the part of the university, and from what I can see of the maths component, the quant risk major looks much the same. (I don't do...

Wouldn't it be exactly the same as doing a BSc/BEng with an extra honours year in maths? I suspect the reason that they don't offer it is because you can't fit all the required subjects into the time frame of the degree.

I think you'll find micro is just very easy maths once you do a strange code switch...

It is not mathematically valid to do ordinary arithmetic with infinite sums and products unless you have established that they converge. There are many examples of paradoxes that arise if you try to do this. So, as Drogonski has done, you have to establish that the sequence converges to a...

I think what you are looking for is called a Wallis product Wallis product - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Strictly speaking, you probably need to use the Monotone Convergence Theorem to prove that the limit of this thing exists (which means to do this question properly is beyond the 4u syllabus), but if you are willing to accept that it converges on faith, then you let x=that thing with all the...

I just tried your code in the fairly archaic version of maple that i have at home. There is no problem with it . I think you get that funny message because the vector is long. Test your code with a shorter sequence, and you will see that it displays properly. You can also pull out some...
