Pi has always been an interesting concept to me. A number that is infinitely being calculated seems almost unbelievable. This number has perplexed many for years and years‚ yet it is such an essential part of many peoples lives. It has become such a popular phenomenon that there is even a day named after it‚ March 14th (3/14) of every year! It is used to find the area or perimeter of circles‚ and used in our every day lives. Pi is used in things such as engineering and physics‚ to the ripples created

equivalent decimal values for presentation to or input from humans; computer programs express literals in decimal by default. (123.1‚ for example‚ are written as such in a computer program‚ even though many computer languages are unable to encode that number precisely.) Both computer hardware and software also use internal representations which are effectively decimal for storing decimal values and doing arithmetic. Often this arithmetic is done on data which are encoded using some variant of binary-coded

I’m Jordan and I’m an addict slash abuser‚ I guess.” I watch my son shrug his shoulders and hunch over‚ clasping his hands in his lap after uttering these words.

Complex Number System Arithmetic A complex number is an expression in the form: a + bi where a and b are real numbers. The symbol i is defined as √ 1. a is the real part of the complex number‚ and b is the complex part of the complex number. If a complex number has real part as a = 0‚ then it is called a pure imaginary number. All real numbers can be expressed as complex numbers with complex part b = 0. -5 + 2i 3i 10 real part –5; imaginary part 2 real part 0; imaginary part 3 real part 10; imaginary

Quantum Numbers Quantum Numbers The Bohr model was a one-dimensional model that used one quantum number to describe the distribution of electrons in the atom. The only information that was important was the size of the orbit‚ which was described by the n quantum number. Schrödinger’s model allowed the electron to occupy three-dimensional space. It therefore required three coordinates‚ or three quantum numbers‚ to describe the orbitals in which electrons can be found. The three coordinates that
