When you think of a hacker, do you think of a young woman who loves the outdoors and fitness, who has worked waiting tables, and enjoys cooking at home? Maybe you should. Tatisana Maskalevich, a data scientist with Accenture Technology Labs,...
When people think about mathematics they probably first think of numbers and not words. But mathematics, with its great intellectual curiosity for ideas, studies words from many points of view-doing what it often does, looking for patterns. In fact,...
Introduction On the whole, standard card solitaire games notoriously resist the calculation of their winning probabilities. Yan et al. [2005] have said, in referring to what is commonly known as Klondike solitaire, "It is one of the embarrassments of...
What subjects are sciences? A list often begins with chemistry and physics and a subject that is sometimes taken as part of physics, astronomy. Perhaps studying the motions of the moon and the stars and seeing the changing patterns of the sky at night...
Mathematical Modeling Handbooks I, II, and III were prepared at Teacher College Columbia University and published by the Consortium for Mathematics and its Applications [COMAP] to support the Common Core State Standards in mathematical modeling. Each...
The six orbital elements are used to classify the size, shape, and orientation of a satellite in orbit about the earth in space. Determining the orbital elements involve basic computations in three-dimensional coordinate systems that are typically...
BioMath The BioMath Connection (BMC) & Integrating Mathematics and Biology (IMB) Projects BMC/IMB was a pioneering project linking biology and mathematics in the high schools. It provided an opportunity for high school teachers, writers, researchers,...
