  2. Mathematical puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_puzzle

    Mathematical puzzles require mathematics to solve them. Logic puzzles are a common type of mathematical puzzle. Conway's Game of Life and fractals , as two examples, may also be considered mathematical puzzles even though the solver interacts with them only at the beginning by providing a set of initial conditions.

    Mathematics education has been a topic of debate among academics, parents, as well as educators. [4] [9] [195] [38] Majorities agree that mathematics is crucial, but there has been many divergent opinions on what kind of mathematics should be taught and whether relevance to the "real world" or rigor should be emphasized.

  6. Outline of discrete mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Outline_of_discrete_mathematics

    Discrete mathematics is the study of mathematical structures that are fundamentally discrete rather than continuous.In contrast to real numbers that have the property of varying "smoothly", the objects studied in discrete mathematics – such as integers, graphs, and statements in logic [1] – do not vary smoothly in this way, but have distinct, separated values. [2]

    true anomaly at time t 1 = −7.577° true anomaly at time t 2 = 92.423° This y-value corresponds to Figure 3. With r 1 = 10000 km; r 2 = 16000 km; α = 260° one gets the same ellipse with the opposite direction of motion, i.e. true anomaly at time t 1 = 7.577° true anomaly at time t 2 = 267.577° = 360° − 92.423° and a transfer time of ...

    In 2014, the competition was hosted in Latin America. [7] In 2017, the Bulgarian association held a week-long Kangaroo summer camp. [8] In Canada, math contest clubs for elementary school children teach "questions typical of the Math Kangaroo contest", starting with those with a visual component and helping to develop logic and spatial ...

    In mathematics, Knuth's up-arrow notation is a method of notation for very large integers, introduced by Donald Knuth in 1976. [1]In his 1947 paper, [2] R. L. Goodstein introduced the specific sequence of operations that are now called hyperoperations.
