Traditional ‘pencil and paper’ derivations of the numerical differentiation formulae for f′ [x 0] and f ″[x 0] have been done independently as if there was no connection among the two derivations. This new approach gives a parallel developmen

We construct and explore the properties of a generalization of hy- perbolic and trigonometric functions we cal l superexponentials. The general ization is based on the characteristic second-order differential equations (DE) these functions satisfy, a

Today's software offers more for numerical analysis than just programming. The software MATLAB can be used to do things the traditional way; writing loops; branching using logical decisions and invoking subroutines. Now a larger programming environme

An important topic in calculus is optimization. Historically, it has been presented as an application involving curve sketching and differentiation, and is used to show how the theory is put to practical use. From the pedagogical side, we want studen

A detailed study of least squares lines reveals that there are several cases to consider. There are three “close fitting lines”, they minimize of the sum of the squares of the vertical distances, horizontal distances, and orthogonal distances, re

The availability of computer algebra systems (CAS's) such as Derive, MACSYMA, Maple, Mathematica, and SMP are influencing the way we teach calculus. New approaches to old problems are being initiated at colleges and universities world? wide. In this

Introduction In this note we look at the solution of two problems drawn from the field of mathematics of finance. These problems are interesting because they provide us with real-world examples of fixed-point problems. (Recall that a fixed point xo o
