Calculus I

Due to the nature of the mathematics on this site it is best views in landscape mode. If your device is not in landscape mode many of the equations will run off the side of your device (should be able to scroll to see them) and some of the menu items will be cut off due to the narrow screen width. Here are the notes for my Calculus I course that I teach here at Lamar University. Despite the fact that these are my “class notes”, they should be accessible to anyone wanting to learn Calculus I or needing a refresher in some of the early topics in calculus. I’ve tried to make these notes as self-contained as possible and so all the information needed to read through them is either from an Algebra or Trig class or contained in other sections of the notes.

PROLOGUE skip this if you want One of the things I managed to teach myself after dropping out of school is calculus.

Before I knew what calculus is, merely hearing its name gave me the impression that it is one of the hardest topics in maths, and that I could not possibly learn it by looking into the freely-available resources online. I was wrong. Nathanmarz/pallet-crates.

Blogs. Utilities. The Markdown Resume. Maintaining a resume is one of those annoying tasks that always takes up much more time than it should.

The Markdown Resume

Compounding this is the fact that resumes are regularly requested in different formats: raw text, pdf, Microsoft Word, etc. In addition, it might be desirable to have a HTML version online somewhere for added visibility. How then to manage this complexity? No one wants to manually update four versions of their resume, and the pdf conversion tools included with word processors leave much to be desired. Christophe-Marie Duquesne has a great blog post in which he shows that using the document translation tool pandoc, you can maintain your resume in markdown format and convert to other formats such as html and Word at will. This is convenient because: This is what a simple resume in markdown format looks like: However, in the above approach the generation of a pdf version (arguably the most important) is problematic.

Background on Geometry. Before embarking on trigonometry, there are a couple of things you need to know well about geometry, namely the Pythagorean theorem and similar triangles.

Background on Geometry

Both of these are used over and over in trigonometry. (The diagrams in Dave’s Short Trig Course are illustrated with a Java applet if your browser is Java-enabled. See About the applet for directions. If it is, drag the points in the images on this page to see what you can do.) The Pythagorean theorem Let’s agree again to the standard convention for labeling the parts of a right triangle. The Pythagorean theorem is about right triangles, that is, triangles, one of whose angles is a 90° angle. The Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of the other two sides, that is, This theorem is useful to determine one of the three sides of a right triangle if you know the other two. Likewise, if you know the hypotenuse and one leg, then you can determine the other. Similar triangles.

Lock-free Data Structures. 1 — Introduction / C++ / Kukuruku / Technology Hub

I would like to share my experience with community, monitoring and thoughts about what lock-free structures are, how to implement them and whether the concepts of Standard Template Library (STL) containers are suitable for the lock-free containers, and when its worth to apply lock-free data structures. It doesn't make any sense to talk about lock free data structures without covering such topics as atomic operations, memory model in programming languages, safe memory reclamation, compiler and optimizations used by them, modern CPU designs, — all of these topics will be covered more or less in this series.

I take it upon myself to tell about all these things, though I don’t consider myself to be an absolute expert in any of them. I will begin with the library appearing. It happened in far 2006. I used to work then for quite a big company that created software for a telco operator.
