Theory of Knowledge (TOK) v. t. e. The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme ( MYP) is an educational programme for students between the ages of 11 and 16 around the world as part of the International Baccalaureate (IB) continuum. Middle Year Programme is intended to prepare students for the two-year IB Diploma Programme.
Order of operations. In mathematicsand computer programming, the order of operationsis a collection of rules that reflect conventions about which operations to perform first in order to evaluate a given mathematical expression. These rules are formalized with a ranking of the operations. The rank of an operation is called its precedence, and an ...
In mathematics, the look-and-say sequence is the sequence of integers beginning as follows: 1, 11, 21, 1211, 111221, 312211, 13112221, 1113213211, 31131211131221, ... (sequence A005150 in the OEIS ). To generate a member of the sequence from the previous member, read off the digits of the previous member, counting the number of digits in groups ...
The International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme ( PYP) is an educational programme managed by the International Baccalaureate (IB) for students aged 3 to 12. [1] While the programme prepares students for the IB Middle Years Programme, it is not a prerequisite for it. The subject areas of the PYP are language, social studies, mathematics ...
Arithmetic progression. An arithmetic progression or arithmetic sequence (AP) is a sequence of numbers such that the difference from any succeeding term to its preceding term remains constant throughout the sequence. The constant difference is called common difference of that arithmetic progression. For instance, the sequence 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 ...
Telescoping series. In mathematics, a telescoping series is a series whose general term is of the form , i.e. the difference of two consecutive terms of a sequence . [ 1] As a consequence the partial sums only consists of two terms of after cancellation. [ 2][ 3] The cancellation technique, with part of each term cancelling with part of the ...
Sequence. In mathematics, a sequence is an enumerated collection of objects in which repetitions are allowed and order matters. Like a set, it contains members (also called elements, or terms ). The number of elements (possibly infinite) is called the length of the sequence. Unlike a set, the same elements can appear multiple times at different ...
A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...
