  2. Solving quadratic equations with continued fractions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solving_quadratic...

    If the discriminant is zero the fraction converges to the single root of multiplicity two. If the discriminant is positive the equation has two real roots, and the continued fraction converges to the larger (in absolute value) of these. The rate of convergence depends on the absolute value of the ratio between the two roots: the farther that ...

  3. Calculator input methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator_input_methods

    Modern computer algebra systems, as well as many scientific and graphing calculators, allow for "pretty-printing", that is, entry of equations such that fractions, surds and integrals, etc. are displayed in the way they would normally be written. Such calculators are generally similar in appearance to those using infix notation, but feature a ...

  4. Windows Calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calculator

    A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.

  6. Casio V.P.A.M. calculators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casio_V.P.A.M._calculators

    Casio V.P.A.M. calculators are scientific calculators made by Casio which use Casio's Visually Perfect Algebraic Method (V.P.A.M.), Natural Display or Natural V.P.A.M. input methods. V.P.A.M. is an infix system for entering mathematical expressions, used by Casio in most of its current scientific calculators.

  7. Continued fraction - Wikipedia

    In the first of these equations the ratio tends toward ⁠ A n / B n ⁠ as z tends toward zero. In the second, the ratio tends toward ⁠ A n / B n ⁠ as z tends to infinity. This leads us to our first geometric interpretation. If the continued fraction converges, the successive convergents ⁠ A n / B n ⁠ are eventually arbitrarily close ...

    The user has three chances to enter the correct number. If the answer is incorrect, the display shows "EEE". After the third wrong answer, the correct answer is shown. If the answer supplied is correct, the Little Professor goes to the next equation. [2] The Little Professor shows the number of correct first answers after each set of 10 ...

  9. Extraneous and missing solutions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraneous_and_missing...

    To begin solving, we multiply each side of the equation by the least common denominator of all the fractions contained in the equation. In this case, the least common denominator is () (+). After performing these operations, the fractions are eliminated, and the equation becomes:
