    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stars_and_bars_(combinatorics)

    For any pair of positive integers n and k, the number of k-tuples of non-negative integers whose sum is n is equal to the number of multisets of size k − 1 taken from a set of size n + 1, or equivalently, the number of multisets of size n taken from a set of size k, and is given by

    The situation, task, action, result (STAR) format is a technique [1] used by interviewers to gather all the relevant information about a specific capability that the job requires. [ citation needed ] Situation : The interviewer wants you to present a recent challenging situation in which you found yourself.

  4. Investigations in Numbers, Data, and Space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Investigations_in_Numbers...

    Investigations was developed between 1990 and 1998. It was just one of a number of reform mathematics curricula initially funded by a National Science Foundation grant. The goals of the project raised opposition to the curriculum from critics (both parents and mathematics teachers) who objected to the emphasis on conceptual learning instead of instruction in more recognized specific methods ...

  5. Collocation method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collocation_method

    In mathematics, a collocation method is a method for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations and integral equations.The idea is to choose a finite-dimensional space of candidate solutions (usually polynomials up to a certain degree) and a number of points in the domain (called collocation points), and to select that solution which satisfies the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_(graph_theory)

    In graph theory, a star S k is the complete bipartite graph K 1,k : a tree with one internal node and k leaves (but no internal nodes and k + 1 leaves when k ≤ 1). Alternatively, some authors define S k to be the tree of order k with maximum diameter 2; in which case a star of k > 2 has k − 1 leaves. A star with 3 edges is called a claw.

    In 2003, Schwartz was teaching one of his young daughters about number basics and developed a poster of the first 100 numbers using colorful monsters. This project gelled into a mathematics book for young children published in 2010, entitled You Can Count on Monsters, which became a bestseller. [10]

  9. Magic star - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_star

    An n-pointed magic star is a star polygon with Schläfli symbol {n/2} [1] in which numbers are placed at each of the n vertices and n intersections, such that the four numbers on each line sum to the same magic constant. [2] A normal magic star contains the integers from 1 to 2n with no numbers repeated. [3]
