In mathematics, the term undefined refers to a value, function, or other expression that cannot be assigned a meaning within a specific formal system. [ 1 ] Attempting to assign or use an undefined value within a particular formal system, may produce contradictory or meaningless results within that system.
A "vertical" line has undefined or infinite slope (see below). If two points of a road have altitudes y 1 and y 2, the rise is the difference (y 2 − y 1) = Δy. Neglecting the Earth's curvature, if the two points have horizontal distance x 1 and x 2 from a fixed point, the run is (x 2 − x 1) = Δx. The slope between the two points is the ...
Plot of the hypergeometric function 2F1(a,b; c; z) with a=2 and b=3 and c=4 in the complex plane from -2-2i to 2+2i with colors created with Mathematica 13.1 function ComplexPlot3D In mathematics , the Gaussian or ordinary hypergeometric function 2 F 1 ( a , b ; c ; z ) is a special function represented by the hypergeometric series , that ...
Functional notation: if the first is the name (symbol) of a function, denotes the value of the function applied to the expression between the parentheses; for example, (), (+). In the case of a multivariate function , the parentheses contain several expressions separated by commas, such as f ( x , y ) {\displaystyle f(x,y)} .
The slope is defined to be the "rise" (change in vertical coordinate) divided by the "run" (change in horizontal coordinate) along the line. When this is written using the symmetrical ratio notation, a horizontal line has slope 0 : 1 {\displaystyle 0:1} and a vertical line has slope 1 : 0. {\displaystyle 1:0.}
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.
The resulting curve then consists of points of the form (r(φ), φ) and can be regarded as the graph of the polar function r. Note that, in contrast to Cartesian coordinates, the independent variable φ is the second entry in the ordered pair. Different forms of symmetry can be deduced from the equation of a polar function r:
Vertical alignment with the surrounding text can also be a problem; a work-around is described in the "Alignment with normal text flow" section below. The CSS selector of the images is img.tex. Apart from function and operator names, as is customary in mathematics, variables and letters are in italics; digits are not.
