Sometimes, it’s easy for a computer to predict the future. Simple phenomena, such as how sap flows down a tree trunk, are straightforward and can be captured in a few lines of code using what ...

You can use a SOLVE statement to solve the nonlinear equation system for some variables when the values of other variables are given. Consider the demand and supply model shown in the preceding ...

Carpathian Journal of Mathematics, Vol. 31, No. 1 (2015), pp. 11-30 (20 pages) We use the method of recurrent functions to provide a new semilocal convergence analysis for secant-like methods in order ...

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, Vol. 13, No. 5 (Oct., 1976), pp. 705-719 (15 pages) A method is described whereby certain nonlinear Volterra integral equations may be numerically solved by ...

Grade school math students are likely familiar with teachers admonishing them not to just guess the answer to a problem. But a new proof establishes that, in fact, the right kind of guessing is ...
