    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

  3. Maximum and minimum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_and_minimum

    If the domain X is a metric space, then f is said to have a local (or relative) maximum point at the point x ∗, if there exists some ε > 0 such that f(x ∗) ≥ f(x) for all x in X within distance ε of x ∗. Similarly, the function has a local minimum point at x ∗, if f(x ∗) ≤ f(x) for all x in X within distance ε of x ∗.

  4. Stationary point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stationary_point

    The stationary points are the red circles. In this graph, they are all relative maxima or relative minima. The blue squares are inflection points.. In mathematics, particularly in calculus, a stationary point of a differentiable function of one variable is a point on the graph of the function where the function's derivative is zero.

  5. Glossary of calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_calculus

    In mathematical analysis, the maxima and minima (the respective plurals of maximum and minimum) of a function, known collectively as extrema (the plural of extremum), are the largest and smallest value of the function, either within a given range (the local or relative extrema) or on the entire domain of a function (the global or absolute extrema).

  6. Golden-section search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden-section_search

    The golden-section search is a technique for finding an extremum (minimum or maximum) of a function inside a specified interval. For a strictly unimodal function with an extremum inside the interval, it will find that extremum, while for an interval containing multiple extrema (possibly including the interval boundaries), it will converge to one of them.

  7. Reed–Solomon error correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed–Solomon_error...

    This trade-off between the relative distance and the rate is asymptotically optimal since, by the Singleton bound, every code satisfies + + /. Being a code that achieves this optimal trade-off, the Reed–Solomon code belongs to the class of maximum distance separable codes .

  8. Interval arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_arithmetic

    The main objective of interval arithmetic is to provide a simple way of calculating upper and lower bounds of a function's range in one or more variables. These endpoints are not necessarily the true supremum or infimum of a range since the precise calculation of those values can be difficult or impossible; the bounds only need to contain the function's range as a subset.

    The step size is =. The same illustration for = The midpoint method converges faster than the Euler method, as .. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations are methods used to find numerical approximations to the solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs).
