A function is a rule that is applied to one set of values to give another set of values. A function can be illustrated on a graph – points are plotted as coordinates and joined by either a straight ...

An equation of the form \(y = mx + c\) where \(m\) and \(c\) are numbers, gives a straight line when values of \(x\) and corresponding values of \(y\) are plotted on a grid. A straight line is a ...

The statistical physics of graphs and partition functions represents a vibrant intersection of graph theory, statistical mechanics and computational complexity. By summing over an ensemble of ...

We develop parametric classes of covariance functions on linear networks and their extension to graphs with Euclidean edges, that is, graphs with edges viewed as line segments or more general sets ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I help people communicate data clearly with graphs. I recently saw the infographic in Figure 1 and thought to myself, “Another ...

Excel has over 475 formulas in its Functions Library, from simple mathematics to very complex statistical, logical, and engineering tasks such as IF statements (one of our perennial favorite stories); ...
