I want to have three plot 1,2,3 in Matlab with the symbols (a), (b) and (c) on plots 1, 2 and 3 respectively.I can do it by text('(a)'), text('(b)'), text('(c)') on the plot 1,2 and 3 respectively but I want to have the three symbols on the same position on the three plots for example...

I need to know this subject for my uni access exam, which will include one combinatorics problem. It's very silly because it's not studied in the course at all, you are instead given random problems and are supposed to magically know them and work them out in the most painful ways. I just don't...

Finally, got my new copy of Jackson's Classical Electrodynamics 3rd Ed. Took almost 40 days to come in from Amazon...Classmate said his copy won't be in until December. Is this becoming a trend??

Dear everyone, I trying to save serial monitor in the text file, but I still do not know how, could you please help on this problem? Here is the codes with random numbers are set up, and I would like you save all data into the text file, Thank you very much, Nate Duong, long Channel1a;long...

Right now I'm using "Affine Lie Algebras and Quantum Groups" by Fuchs. I'm getting sick of it. As a Physicist the structure and focus of the text is attractive to me. But, to give one example... The text constructs two vector spaces: L and Lw. Lw is dual to L. The text goes on to state...

What software is used to create a text editor, math graph, and math equation such as below image? It seems the math graph is a vector illustration (not pixel), the math equation is not Latex, and they are integrated with the text editor. What software to create such as book?

Hello, I want to start learning mathematical logic. I was wondering what would be a good "expansive" mathematical logic book that covers as much material as possible. My school has books by both Ebinghaus (et. al) and Monk. Are these good? I've heard good things about Schoenfield, but I was...

Good day, Did anyone here use Serge Lang's "Algebra" as an undergraduate text?

What is the best way to make a 9th grader understand the concept of force and laws of motion. Also please refer a book where he can get a good practice to solve force numericals. Please mention the ISBN code of the book also. Thanks a lot

Senior in Fall. Is a full course on vector analysis necessary: Stockes theorem, Green Theorem, differential forms, etc. I feel like Griffith's Electrodynamics gives a sufficient overview of Vector analysis in Chapter 1 covering all you need. I've only taken the required Calc 1 - 3 sequence +...

Hello, I am a math major and I was wondering if you guys knew what would be a good rigorous differential equations text. I really like rigor (like Rudin analysis style rigor or whatnot), instead of the typical books that just focus on the method. I want the proofs and everything. I also would...

This time I have a problem with monotype font and quotes. When I switch to typewriter font using ``quotes'' stops to work*. Character sequences (`` and '') that in other parts of the text are understood as opening and closing quotes are not translated. Standard "quotes" are rendered mostly OK...

Well the texas instruments ti-84 calculator is my favorite toy. I use it for anything I can from getting a girl to put her phone number in my calculator to programming. Is there a way to somehow add an external circuit that can make the ti-84 send text messages. I bet there would have to be a...

In your opinion, what is the most difficult written text (e.g. a book or a paper) on mathematics? My candidate: Principia Mathematica by Whitehead and Russell

I used the label for y-axis as below and plot the figure. ylabel('$\frac{|Iup|-|Idown|}{|Iup|+|Idown|}$','interpreter','latex','FontSize',30) but when I copy the figure in the word, the y-label text is corrupted. What should I do?

I'm taking Physics 121 with an instructor that I personally find confusing. Nothing in the lectures nor explanations during office hours get through to me at all. Our assigned text is "Physics, Volume 1 - Resnick, Halliday, Krane." I want to get a solid foundation of the material (beginning...

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good supplemental text for a college-freshman level mechanics course (calc 1 being the pre-req). I am pretty solid on the math, and I feel like that ends up hurting me sometimes because I think of things more in terms of the mathematics and sometimes I...

Hi all, I am a newbie and this is my first post in PF. I have recently started on learning calculus and I'm using Apostol's calculus-I (second edition). I need some clarification on "The method of exhaustion for the area of a parabolic segment" (I 1.3 page 3). I'm able to follow the author till...

Hi, I am teaching a machine learning course and the students have very poor knowledge about conditional probability, Bayes rule etc. Most students have done their undergraduates years ago and I guess their educational background has not been that good. Last lecture was on Naive Bayes...

HI, I am studying vibration, came across this in a textbook and can't see the steps taken to substitute e.q 3.5 into 3.3. There is a second derivative x so where does this go, as there is no s^2 either and I can't see how cos was eliminated Cheers

Good afternoon, I've been working my way through Serge Lang's series of textbooks, and I recently completed A First Course in Calculus. I'm currently working through the sequel to that book, Multivariable Calculus, and that should keep me tied up for at least two months. Looking ahead...

Hey all, been wanting to get into NLP (natural language processing) but I require a text file with a list of all English words (not the definitions) and a tag indicating their part of speech, I know it exists because I had it on my old laptop but I can't seem to refind it. Any help apreciated.
