Flavors of Uncertainty: The Difference between Denial and Debate

Learning intro number theory | Ask a Mathematician / Ask a Physicist

Physicist : We occasionally get questions about free learning resources. Khan academy is excellent, and if you poke around you can find a smattering of free class notes and text books , but generally speaking the more more detailed/advanced the material, the more difficult it is to find/understand. In keeping with that tradition, here’s this ↓. It was originally written for a group of “ mathlete ” high school students to teach them number theory and erode their egos a bit. It’s Socratic , so rather than just presenting stuff to be known, it’s mostly a series of leading questions.
If you're curious about learning a programming language then you're in luck: there's no shortage of resources for learning how to code online. University-level courses, tutorials, cheat sheets, and coding communities all offer excellent ways to pick up a new language, and maybe even a new job, too. Read on, and you'll discover 50 great places to learn how to code, for free, online. Many big names in education including MIT and Stanford offer programming courses, absolutely free.

Thinking in C CDROM | Why do you put your books on the web? | Comments from Readers | The Cover Story | Electronic Translations | Strategy | The Electronic Book | HTML Format | Making a Contribution to the Book | Downloading problems | Unzipping | Mirror Sites | Download the book | Download the source code | Win32 Compilers | Chapter 3 is a fairly intense coverage of the C that's used in C++, but if you're just getting started with all this it may be a little too intense. To remedy this, the printed book contains a CD ROM training course that gently introduces you to the C syntax that you need to understand in order to take on C++ or Java. http://mindview.net/Books/TICPP/ThinkingInCPP2e.html

Jazz Chord Progressions - II-V-I with 7/9/13 chords

http://www.piano-play-it.com/jazz-chord-progressions.html Home » Piano Chords » Jazz Chord Progressions - II-V-I With Extensions During the past three lessons we started to talk about extensions. Now that we know how to form jazz chords I'd like us to go back to the II-V-I chord progression and see how to play it as a jazzy chord progression. We'll start with Looking at this image.

The Rubik's Cube Solution

How to Solve the Rubik's Cube in Seven Steps The world's most famous puzzle, simultaneously beloved and despised for it's beautiful simple complexity, the Rubiks Cube has been frustrating gamers since Erno Rubik invented it back in 1974. Over the years many brave gamers have whole-heartedly taken up the challenge to restore a mixed Rubik's cube to it's colorful and perfect original configuration, only to find the solution lingering just out of their grasp time and time again. After spending hours and days twisting and turning the vaunted cube in vain, many resorted to removing and replacing the multi-colored facelets of the cube in a dastardly attempt to cheat the seemingly infallible logic of the cube, while others simply tossed it to the side and dubbed it impossible. The Rubik's cube, it seemed, had defeated all. http://www.chessandpoker.com/rubiks-cube-solution.html
http://lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/index.php Last Updated 12/21/12 These tutorials were made to help programmers start out in game programming. I tried to keep them as simple and to the point as possible. They are a perpetual work in progress, and will be improved over time. They use C++ as the programming language because it is considered the game industry's standard.

Neural Network Tutorial

I ntroduction I have been interested in artificial intelligence and artificial life for years and I read most of the popular books printed on the subject. I developed a grasp of most of the topics yet neural networks always seemed to elude me.

Voting Methods

First published Wed Aug 3, 2011 Think back to the last time you needed to make a decision as a member of a group. This may have been when you voted for your favorite political candidate during the last election. On a smaller scale, it may have been when you took part in a committee that needed to choose the best candidate for a job or a student to receive a special award.

Real Analysis

An Introduction to Species Counterpoint C OUNTERPOINT may be briefly defined as the art of combining independent melodies. In figure 1 the lower melody is harmonized by one a third higher - such an arrangement of the voices could be regarded as counterpoint, but there is little or no independence between the parts; for example there is no dissonance between the voices, and both rise and fall together in parallel. However, the arrangement in figure 1a demonstrates much greater independence between its two voices, with movement in one part while the other halts, divergence in the melodic direction of the parts, and with at least some occurrence of dissonance. In a longer melody the voices could peak at different times - this would also emphasize their independence.

Species Counterpoint

Hello and welcome back to my blog! This time i’m going to talk about the basic components that make up a physics engine and how to put them together; this tutorial is aimed at programmers who have a basic grasp of maths and geometry but would like to step into the world of simulation. It is my hope that if, at the beginning of this article, you are able to code the physics behind the 1972 game Pong , by the end of the article you will be equally happy writing your own constraints to use in your own physics solver! Can you code this? I’ve always found the title of those books of from the ‘…for dummies’ series reassuring; after all, if a dummy can learn this stuff you should stand a good chance, right?

Spaun | Repository of Neural and Cognitive Models

Description: Spaun is a biologically realistic model of cognition that is not only able to perform multiple (at least 10) cognitive, perceptual, and motor tasks, but also utilizes the same model parameters across all tasks. Spaun is able to perform tasks that encompass strictly visual tasks (e.g. recognition of handwritten digits), memory tasks (e.g. forward and backward recall of a list), simple cognitive tasks (e.g. counting), and complex fluid intelligence tasks (e.g. solving the Raven's Progressive Matrices).
