    Mathematica Mathematica Help for Negative Numbers and Functional Programming

    Hi, Personally I found the help/guides in Mathematica to be fairly sufficient to get me started. There is also lots of tutorials and seminars available online at wolfram.com: http://www.wolfram.com/services/education/seminars/ http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/...

    Troubleshooting Laptop Battery Detection Issues

    There was a huge recall of Sony batteries last year (or was it 2 years ago), is it possible you might have one of these batteries? If the machine is a couple of years old then you might want to check out the serial numbers against those of recalled batteries.

    Word 2003 in-line figures question

    I would strongly recommend creating a template in Word to do any serious document writing. I managed to find a course in report/thesis writing in MS Word which helped me to use Word's more advanced features. I also found quite a lot of info in the web about using word to prepare...

    Lots of positive exponentials leading to huge exponents

    Thanks for the help, that has solved the problem. I am now able to calculate the function without it overflowing and under-flowing all over the place!

    Lots of positive exponentials leading to huge exponents

    Yeah, I am not surprised you haven't heard of the 'deca-nanometre' term, it is one of these fancy buzz words used to make a particular dimension sound more interesting than it actually is! It is used to denote dimensions of tens of nanometres, so the 10^-8 to 10^-9 range. Thanks for the...

    Lots of positive exponentials leading to huge exponents

    Have not had much experience with Latex typesetting but here goes: \begin{multline*} f_{dbl}(\Theta)= \frac{ \exp^{-2(L_c+Z_i)A_Q(\Theta)} } { (\exp^{ 2L_c A_Q(\Theta) } - 1)^2 } \\ \{ E_C(\Theta)^2 + E_D(\Theta)^2 +E_S(\Theta)^2 \\ + 2 E_C(\Theta) ( E_D(\Theta) \cos{ (Q_Z(\Theta) L_c)...

    Lots of positive exponentials leading to huge exponents

    Hello there, This is my first post on this forum so bear with me if I don't know the rules or I am posting in the wrong area. I am coding up an of equation for a scattering rate which involve quite a few positive (and a couple of negative) exponentials which often have terms that go into...
