Expected this place to be a bit more complete.

I am currently forecasting PewDiePie vs T-Series. Which trend line best fits this data? Linear, logarithmic, exponential, power, or polynomial?

An integer overflow is a mathematical error in computer science.

I know some famous examples

- Integer Overflow

I invented a new formula but I created it from scratch.

Hi All,

I'm a secondary school teacher in Australia who has need for a wiki-style space for my colleagues and students. Rather than create a new wiki from scratch, I wonder if contributions here would be a better way to go about it. Any guidance from the current community would be appreciated.

A few observations from a quick look around:

- The community here appears to have ebbed and flowed over quite a few years. How large/active is the current community?

- The main focus of the wiki appears to be tertiary/research level "math nerd" stuff. While I appreciate that material, it's not very helpful or accessible for my students. Bluntly, the claim that "math wiki is a textbook" is not (yet) justified.

- the overall structure and connections within the wiki are really hard to navigate, especially if you don't already have a pretty good understanding of the math.

I'd be keen to lead a group of educators in the following tasks if the current community would welcome the contribution:

- create a simple template for individual skills/concepts that lays out the following for each:

* skill/concept name

* description in language accessible to the education level typical of someone learning that skill.

* worked example (with graphics where possible)

* links to additional material, especially where automated practice of the skill can be done (eg. Khan Academy exercises)

* reference to textbook pages that have this skill (this will grow to fit the number of different education systems represented by the community)

* application of the skill/concept outside the realm of mathematics (aka "real world"

* prerequisite skills/concepts (linked to the corresponding wiki pages)

* follow-on skills/concepts (linked to the corresponding wiki pages)

- Migrating existing pages to this template

- Creating and populating new pages as required

In reality, most of this activity would probably have no impact on most of what goes on in this wiki as the current focus is post-secondary material.

Please let me know if this approach is likely to help or hurt Math Wiki.

Thanks,

Chris

Since 1/0 is undefined you would think that the integral of x^-1 would be undefined too but instead its ln(x).
