  2. Mathematics education in the United States - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_education_in...

    As previously stated, American children usually follow a unique sequence of mathematics courses in secondary school (grades 6 to 12), learning one subject at a time. They take two years of Algebra punctuated by a year of Geometry. Geometry, hitherto a collegiate course, was introduced into high schools in the nineteenth century.

  3. Geometric progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_progression

    For example, the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ... is a geometric progression with a common ratio of 3. Similarly 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, ... is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 1/2. Examples of a geometric sequence are powers r k of a fixed non-zero number r, such as 2 k and 3 k. The general form of a geometric sequence is

  4. Sequence diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_diagram

    The diagram emphasizes events that cross the system boundary from actors to systems. A system sequence diagram should be done for the main success scenario of the use case, and frequent or complex alternative scenarios. There are two kinds of sequence diagrams: Sequence Diagram (SD): A regular version of sequence diagram describes how the ...

  5. Schaum's Outlines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schaum's_Outlines

    The "Demystified" series is introductory in nature, for middle and high school students, favoring more in-depth coverage of introductory material at the expense of fewer topics. The "Easy Way" series is a middle ground: more rigorous and detailed than the "Demystified" books, but not as rigorous and terse as the Schaum's series.

  6. Interactive Mathematics Program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interactive_Mathematics...

    Designed in response to national reports pointing to the need for a major overhaul in mathematics education, [3] [4] [5] the IMP curriculum is markedly different in structure, content, and pedagogy from courses more typically found in the high school sequence.

    The same structure can also be found in the Viterbi algorithm, used for finding the most likely sequence of hidden states. The butterfly diagram show a data-flow diagram connecting the inputs x (left) to the outputs y that depend on them (right) for a "butterfly" step of a radix-2 Cooley–Tukey FFT algorithm.

  8. Farey sequence - Wikipedia

    Comparison of Ford circles and a Farey diagram with circular arcs for n from 1 to 9. Each arc intersects its corresponding circles at right angles. In the SVG image, hover over a circle or curve to highlight it and its terms. There is a connection between Farey sequence and Ford circles.

  9. Secondary School Mathematics Curriculum Improvement Study

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_School...

    For instance, Leonia High School, which incorporated grades 8–12 (since there was no middle school then), called the program "Math X" for experimental, with individual courses called Math 8X, Math 9X, etc. [13] Hunter College High School used it as the basis for its Extended Honors Program; the school's description stated that the program ...
