That's quite an accomplishment you've got there.

What's a pillock?

ah...drats

I tried C&P the theta sign into the quick-reply box. I guess it doesn't work. Thanks to Sayo for the non-winking version of De Moivre's Th'm.

I found the Binomial Theorem neat too:

The theorem that' date=' for positive integers n,

the so-called binomial series, where are binomial coefficients.

It was very neat when we studied it with Pascal's triangle, combinatorics, and the like.

He's nocturnal

lol

good thing i have 0.9.1

I like De Moivre's Theorem. Other than finding complex roots, I like it as a easy(?) way to remember expansions of the sin & cos funx.

De Moivre's Theorem

If z = r cos(θ) + i r sin(θ), then zⁿ = r cos(nθ) + i r sin(nθ) for all n ∈ N

Any ideas from you so far?

Always important in these types of problems are the definition of a slope and that two lines are perpendicular if one's slope is the negative reciprocal of the other.

hehe

icq too?

everyone seems to be on msn now

as for adam, maybe you guys can talk to him on IRC or sth...

faf seems to see him onlnie

^ lol

This would be a good debate topic hm?

Though evidence would be hard. :/

I'm not sure if the soccer match qualifies as media news.

680 News based in Toronto Ontario, Canada has a java applet that allows listeners to tune into it's radio broadcasts [by clicking on the link] until you close the window.

Pulse 24 [also based in Toronto] has a "watch live" applet. Pulse 24 is a all-day news broadcast station.

What's your current academic status [Freeman]?

^ Why is that?

Well, phpBB could be modified such that there exists a quick reply box.

I just don't know how.

Me too.

I'll start it up later today, after Canada Day festivities

[edit]

Actually, I'm just wondering as to where to start right now.

Should I start with elementary functions [i.e. y = x], algebra skills [i.e. factor 2x² + 3x + 1], trig, ... ?

I had a list prepared:

1. Algebra Skills and Quadratic Functions
   
2. Introduction to Functions
   
3. Trigonometric Ratios and Functions
   
4. Graphing and Transformations of Trigonometric Functions
   
5. Loci and Conics
   
6. Polynomial Function Models
   
7. Rates of Change in Polynomial Functions Models
   
8. Vectors
   
9. Equations of lines and Planes [Parametric form]
   
10. Tricks
    

But it occurred to me that many SFNers already now this material. Would there be an audience for such material?

I don't think that's what group memberships are.

MrL & Freeman know each other?

I was wondering if you guys would consider switching from VB to phpBB?

Afterall, phpBB is free.

I'm not sure what you're trying to state there...

We began with C = Dπ...

So what?

Perhaps we should make an "Pre-Calculus" section too?

i.e.:

* tricks for factoring quartics, trinomials, etc

* definitions / terminology

* finite differences

* polynomial behaviour

* dividing polynomials, synthetic division

* etc.

I'll be happy to head it up. I have my grade 12 intro to calc notes out, as I'm helping a friend with it atm.

In addition, I can post some more problems, as they're in my notes.

I think the practical/application parts should be shown too whenever possible. [i.e. for gradients of a non-steady function, the average speed in a position-time graph; using the derivative to find the speed @ that point in time; etc.]

dance dance dance

What does your collection currently consist of?

I dont' want to name any overlapping songs

Me too......

I usually see cookiemonster on, but he's idle for ages.

I end up talking to random people from PF

huzzah Canada!

Where in Canada did you go daisy?

Well, you can get rid of the "right-click" --> "save as" by disabling right click on your page.

Windows Media Encoder can go from MP3 to WMA.

I've yet to find one the other way though...

I use 1280 * 1024 @ 60 Hz on my Viewsonic A70f.

Why do you want to go higher Sayo?

lol

Have you used Netscape Navigator? It's like that but much faster.

With FireFox, you can download & install more plug-ins as you wish, built-in pop-up blocker, tabbing windows, and I just like the overall operation of FireFox. IE seems so...bulky. Even MyIE2 [which I use to see IE-only pages] doesn't have the same functionality as FireFox.
