MHB Understanding Legendre Polynomials for Students

Click For Summary
Legendre polynomials are crucial for understanding certain mathematical concepts, and their application can significantly aid in exam preparation. The project is not for a final exam but serves as a review tool to enhance comprehension. Students seeking assistance should focus on coding practices related to these polynomials to improve their skills. Familiarity with coding will facilitate better understanding and application of the concepts. Engaging with resources and study groups can further aid in mastering this topic.

No, it's not. But understand this will definitely help for final. The professor gave it for review. I am not that familiar with writing code, so i am trying to find best way to prepare and study for this course.
 

Thread 'Significant figures for inherently bound values'

I have been insisting to my statistics students that for probabilities, the rule is the number of significant figures is the number of digits past the leading zeros or leading nines. For example to give 4 significant figures for a probability: 0.000001234 and 0.99999991234 are the correct number of decimal places. That way the complementary probability can also be given to the same significant figures ( 0.999998766 and 0.00000008766 respectively). More generally if you have a value that...
