Math From Scratch 007: In Her Majesty’s Secret Subgroup
Part seven of a number that just keeps getting bigger: Subgroups. Remember, past lessons can all be found by clicking on the “math from scratch” tag below.
Math From Scratch 0006: Permutations
Part six of lots: Permutation Groups.
Math From Scratch 0005: Symmetry
We now have part five of oodles: Structuring Symmetry, with the first application of the group axioms.
Math From Scratch 0004: The Group Axioms
This lesson defines “algebra” and starts to deal with a particular type of algebra. Lesson four: The Group Axioms is available here.
Math From Scratch 0003: Whole and Natural Numbers
Here it is, part three of many: Defining Whole (and Natural) Numbers.
Math From Scratch 0002: Set Theory
Part two in our tri-weekly series is here. This week’s topic: Set Theory. For past topic, click the “math from scratch” tag below. There will be too many of these to include links in every article.
Math From Scratch 0001: Relations
Bureau 42’s biggest educational project to date begins here. The ultimate goal: teach everything we possibly can in math from the ground up in a sequence of comprehensive lessons, released no more than three weeks apart. This project will likely take years. The first lesson, defining mathematical relations, is available here.
Partial Linear Algebra Lessons
As mentioned last week, I wasn’t pleased with how the linear algebra summer school modules were turning out, so the project has mutated into something else entirely. Those who are interested can read the portions that were completed here. All intended content will eventually become a part of the Math From Scratch project, but as the first lesson was the only one I was really satisfied with in this format, I’m changing the plans. Consider this a preview of the “Math From Scratch” project that will start in early 2011.
Upcoming math lessons – what schedule do readers want?
The previously announced plans for future Summer School sessions may change somewhat. Feedback is requested, and details are offered after the break.
