Thanks for the replies, I check both out.

Hello, I am looking for a book that has sections on different areas of math. I’ve browsed through a few discrete math books but they have something similar to this but not at the level I am looking for. Essentially, I would like the book to serve as a tour if you will, so I can try and find a...

Just got done reading a wiki on monoids, and I think this is something I would like to pursue for my project. Some (probably more than I think) of the material is over my head, can you recommend a text or video series on the subject? Thanks!

Ok, thank you all for the ideas! I’ll start looking into these.

Hello all, I am currently taking the first of a two semester sequence of C++ courses and I am taking the course as an Honors option and thus I will be writing an extra program to fulfill the requirements. A little about my experience, I am currently taking Calc 3 and an intro to proves...

This would be a violation of many schools academic integrity policy and hopefully your own morals.

Almost a year, so I guess not too much of a lurker.

Hello All, I have been lurking the boards for a while, and finally decided to sign up and become a member! I am currently in community college studying mathematics. NG

Hello all, I was working on some homework regarding testing for convergence and divergence of series and I was having trouble with a particular series (doesn't really matter which one) and tried almost all the methods; then tried the Integral Test, my series met the conditions of the...

I’m taking a fairly intensive course load this fall as well; Calc II (4hrs), General Physics (4hrs), General Chem (4hrs), Linear Algebra (3hrs), and C++ Programming (3hrs); and have been getting opinions from others about if it is doable. One piece of advise I’ve gotten repeatedly is to revise...

OK, plane and simple...no pun, sadly. As you are now, looking back to your young mathematical prodigy self, which five math text would you recommend to yourself and why? The bonus question, would you recommend a computer language or LaTex or both? Thank you for the input! Jonathan P.S...

OK, thank you very much for the input!

Should I go with a proof book prior to Apostol Vol II, currently or finish my Apostol sequence first. The proofs I have encountered thus far I can muscle through with internet searches but I feel as though I don't completely grasp them.

@micromass, so that was a bit over my head

Hello all! I am looking at books related to proofs, I have been looking around and it appears that either, "How it Prove It" or "Book of Proof" seem to be the top recommendations. Has anybody had any experience with these text and/or could provide some insight. Currently I am working through...
