  2. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_constants

    A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]

  3. Word-representable graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word-representable_graph

    Wheel graphs W 2n+1, for n ≥ 2, are not word-representable and W 5 is the minimum (by the number of vertices) non-word-representable graph. Taking any non-comparability graph and adding an apex (a vertex connected to any other vertex), we obtain a non-word-representable graph, which then can produce infinitely many non-word-representable ...

    In group theory, a word metric on a discrete group is a way to measure distance between any two elements of .As the name suggests, the word metric is a metric on , assigning to any two elements , of a distance (,) that measures how efficiently their difference can be expressed as a word whose letters come from a generating set for the group.

    ((x),(y) = {239, 13 2} is a solution to the Pell equation x 22 y 2 = −1.) Formulae of this kind are known as Machin-like formulae . Machin's particular formula was used well into the computer era for calculating record numbers of digits of π , [ 39 ] but more recently other similar formulae have been used as well.

    Graphs that show a trend of data should illustrate the trend accurately in its context, rather than illustrating the trend in an exaggerated or sensationalized way. In short, don't draw misleading graphs. Choose a type of graph that is appropriate for the data you are illustrating. Cartesian coordinates

  7. Piphilology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piphilology

    The word is a play on the word "pi" itself and of the linguistic field of philology. There are many ways to memorize π , including the use of piems (a portmanteau , formed by combining pi and po em ), which are poems that represent π in a way such that the length of each word (in letters) represents a digit. [ 1 ]

    is the number of collisions made (in ideal conditions, perfectly elastic with no friction) by an object of mass m initially at rest between a fixed wall and another object of mass b 2N m, when struck by the other object. [1] (This gives the digits of π in base b up to N digits past the radix point.)
