JSH: A very uneducated culture? You know I just got through with some exchanges that were maybe heated a bit but not terribly more than normal, and the issue of probability and statistics has come up in my threads, and it occurs to me: how badly educated IS our modern culture? How many people are there out there who think they understand issues... 26 Jul 2010 23:46
Subdivide And Acquire Game Here is a game for any plural number of players. Start with an n-by-n grid drawn on paper, where n is larger if there are more players. Each player has a colored pencil of unique color. In the first part of the game, players take turns drawing straight line-segments -- one line-segment each turn. A player can dra... 25 Jul 2010 07:36
A pi and e equation challenge. (3) separate equations using pi and e where the results are close too the value of pi (correct too 6 decimal digits) (((e^3/pi^2)^2)-1) = 3.141592835... (slightly greater than pi) (1/((e^6/pi^5)-1)) = 3.1415920835... (slightly less than pi) (e^6)/((pi^2 + pi)* pi^2) = 3.1415927912... (slightly gre... 26 Jul 2010 11:38
KISS4691, a potentially top-ranked RNG. I have been asked to recommend an RNG (Random Number Generator) that ranks at or near the top in all of the categories: performance on tests of randomness, length of period, simplicity and speed. The most important measure, of course, is performance on extensive tests of randomness, and for those that perform we... 12 Aug 2010 10:23
An investment problem I would appreciate any suggestions for this problem. There are N investment opportunities, and the investor's starting wealth is B. At the start of each period, the investor is made aware of a subset ("none" and "all" included) of the opportunities that are available. He may split his starting wealth as he ple... 24 Jul 2010 20:58
An exact simplification challenge - 98 (MeijerG) Hello, Mathematica: MeijerG[{{1/10, 3/10, 2/5, 1/2, 7/10, 9/10, 9/10}, {}}, {{0, 1/5, 2/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, 9/10}, {}}, 1] Maple: MeijerG([[1/10, 3/10, 2/5, 1/2, 7/10, 9/10, 9/10], []], [[9/10, 4/5, 3/5, 2/5, 2/5, 1/5, 0], []], 1) Can you "elementarize" this ? Cheers, Vladimir Bonda... 24 Jul 2010 08:00
Lwalk or Mr. Transfer P becoming the third human to do the only valid correct Indirect Euclid IP #4.14 Correcting Math Transfer Principle wrote: So AP is asking me to settle the dispute between himself and the anonymous poster (on Google, he appears only via the email address sttscitrans(a)tesco.net) regarding Euclid's infinitude of primes proof. No, I was not asking that at all. I was asking you to acknowledge a ... 24 Jul 2010 17:45
Is RH equivalent to, there are two primes between n and 2n?? #704 Correcting Math Archimedes Plutonium wrote: (snipped a far too long of a post, but it did show two proofs of Riemann Hypothesis) I do not know whether the Twin Primes can construct rectangles in whirling rectangles as an independent proof of the Riemann Hypothesis, or, whether the Twin Primes proof which yields ... 24 Jul 2010 03:45
change of base of fields Suppose that k is a field and that k' and F are extensions of k. Does anyone know where I can read the proof that, in the tensor product over k of F with k', prime ideals are minimal? ... 27 Jul 2010 10:37
