While there are formulas and tools for performing simple functions like addition, subtraction, multiplication, etc. in Excel, exponential calculations could be a little complicated. There is no ...

This function is a simple two-dimensional example which occurs several times in the literature on computer experiments. Currin, C., Mitchell, T., Morris, M., & Ylvisaker, D. (1988). A Bayesian ...

\({\log _a}a = 1\) (since \({a^1} = a\)) so \({\log _7}7 = 1\) \({\log _a}1 = 0\) (since \({a^0} = 1\)) so \({\log _{20}}1 = 0\) \({\log _a}p + {\log _a}q = {\log _a ...

What’s the greatest shortcoming of the human race? I’m sure we all have some suggestions, but according to physicist Albert Bartlett, it is “our inability to understand the exponential function.” ...

A PHASE relation familiar to students of applied mathematics exists between a simple harmonic oscillation and its derivative. Similar relations exist between exponential functions and their ...
