The name Desmos came from the Greek word δεσμός which means a bond or a tie. [6] In May 2022, Amplify acquired the Desmos curriculum and teacher.desmos.com. Some 50 employees joined Amplify. Desmos Studio was spun off as a separate public benefit corporation focused on building calculator products and other math tools. [7]
A calculator function has been included with iOS since its launch on iPhone [8] and iPod Touch. [9] A native calculator function was added to the Apple Watch with watchOS 6, which included a dedicated button for calculating tips. [10] The Calculator app was not available on Apple's iPad tablet until the release of iPadOS 18 in September
Terms like piecewise linear, piecewise smooth, piecewise continuous, and others are very common. The meaning of a function being piecewise P {\displaystyle P} , for a property P {\displaystyle P} is roughly that the domain of the function can be partitioned into pieces on which the property P {\displaystyle P} holds, but is used slightly ...
A function property holds piecewise for a function, if the function can be piecewise-defined in a way that the property holds for every subdomain. Examples of functions with such piecewise properties are: Piecewise constant function, also known as a step function; Piecewise linear function; Piecewise continuous function
In mathematics, a spline is a function defined piecewise by polynomials. In interpolating problems, spline interpolation is often preferred to polynomial interpolation because it yields similar results, even when using low degree polynomials, while avoiding Runge's phenomenon for higher degrees.
A piecewise linear function is a function defined on a (possibly unbounded) interval of real numbers, such that there is a collection of intervals on each of which the function is an affine function. (Thus "piecewise linear" is actually defined to mean "piecewise affine".)
Linear interpolation on a data set (red points) consists of pieces of linear interpolants (blue lines). Linear interpolation on a set of data points (x 0, y 0), (x 1, y 1), ..., (x n, y n) is defined as piecewise linear, resulting from the concatenation of linear segment interpolants between each pair of data points.
Interpolation with cubic splines between eight points. Hand-drawn technical drawings for shipbuilding are a historical example of spline interpolation; drawings were constructed using flexible rulers that were bent to follow pre-defined points.
