Weierstrass functions

Here is an example of one: It is not hard to show that this series converges for all x. In fact, it is absolutely convergent. It is also an example of a fourier series, a very important and fun type of series. It can be shown that the function is continuous everywhere, yet is differentiable at no values of x.

Command-line interfaces to computer operating systems are less widely used by casual computer users, who favor graphical user interfaces.

Command-line interface

Command-line interfaces are often preferred by more advanced computer users, as they often provide a more concise and powerful means to control a program or operating system. Programs with command-line interfaces are generally easier to automate via scripting. Operating system command-line interfaces[edit] Operating system (OS) command line interfaces are usually distinct programs supplied with the operating system. Application command-line interfaces[edit] Application programs (as opposed to operating systems) may also have command line interfaces. An application program may support none, any, or all of these three major types of command line interface mechanisms: Parameters: Most operating systems support a means to pass additional information to a program when it is launched.

Skill Set: The Beginning (Mechanical) Engineer’s Checklist. A while ago MAKE did a post on A Beginning Engineer’s Checklist from the PIClist site.

Skill Set: The Beginning (Mechanical) Engineer’s Checklist

And while I love these kind of lists, it left me – as a mechanical engineering – feeling a little left out, with all the talk of chips and Ohm’s Law and power busses (oh my!). It also reminded me of a list we had posted on a bulletin board at my first job, called Akin’s Laws of Spacecraft Design, which definitely apply to more than just spacecraft. So here’s my attempt at rearranging and adding to these lists to give them more of a mechanical flavor and include some of my own lessons learned over the last few years. 1. NEVER loan out your copies of:Machinery’s HandbookShigley’s Mechanical Engineering DesignMaking Things Move: DIY Mechanisms for Inventors, Hobbyists, and Artists (okay this one is a shameless plug, but Dug North told me it’s “destined to be be a classic of sorts” so you can blame him) 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

Posted by Anthony Mowl in EQUIPMENT, Uncategorized on 06-20-11 1 Comment I think I should start investing in companies that make accelerometers. They’re finding their way in just about anything that moves, even where you’d least expect it. Surfing is one of the purest sports you can find, just a surfer on a board feeling the waves beneath them. It used to be the only thing a surfer needed was a wet suit and bare feet. Now, surfers might have to bring an extension cord and a power outlet to to the beach so they can charge their surfboard. The dudes over at Pukas surf must have broken their boards on a nasty wave, because they tossed their old surfboard. The Surfsens project is initially being used to build better surfboards by measuring torque and flexibility and gauging surfers’ performances on different types of boards and seeing which settings work best.

Surfing used to be cool, tanned dudes taking a drop down the face of a wave and hanging 10. Like this post? Pyschology Tests & Surveys.
