	Mathematical Induction, What is Mathematical Induction
		Given a hereditary class of which 0 is a member, it follows that 1 is a member of it, because a hereditary class contains the successors of its members, and 1 is the successor of 0.
		The successor of the number of terms in the class α is the number of terms in the class consisting of α together with x,where x is any term not belonging to the class.
		The principle of mathematical induction might be stated popularly in some such form as "what can be inferred from next to next can be inferred from first to last." This is true when the number of intermediate steps between first and last is finite, not otherwise.

	Willard Van Orman Quine, Mathematical Logic
		Mathematical logic, which has emerged only in the last hundred and fifty years, is well known to be abstruse and terrifying, and has made the logician into a creature mathematicians view in much the same way others view mathematicians, i.e.
		If there is any difference between classes and properties, it is merely this: classes are the same when their members are the same, whereas it is not universally conceded that properties are the same when possessed by the same objects.
		The class of all marine mammals living in 1940 is the same as the class of all whales and porpoises living in 1940, whereas the property of being a marine mammal alive in 1940 might be regarded as differing from the property of being a whale or porpoise alive in 1940.

	Equivalence Class
		Equivalence class, a mathematical concept, is a subset of given set induced by an equivalence relation on that given set.
		Any two different equivalence classes are disjoint and the union over all of the equivalence classes is the given set.
		Equivalence classes and their corresponding equivalence relation are defined in set theory, a vital foundation for mathematics and those fields that use mathematics.

	Mathematical Literacy in PISA
		Mathematical literacy entails the use of mathematical competencies at several levels, ranging from performance of standard mathematical operations to mathematical thinking and insight.
		First, the content of mathematics, as defined mainly in terms of broad mathematical concepts underlying mathematical thinking (such as chance, change and growth, space and shape, reasoning, uncertainty and dependency relationships), and only secondarily in relation to "curricular strands" (such as numbers, algebra and geometry).
		The third competency class consists of mathematical thinking, generalization and insight, and requires students to engage in analysis, to identify the mathematical elements in a situation and to pose their own problems.

	Programming Is Mathematical Engineering
		Actually programmers do reason about their program "mathematically", meaning the process that goes into their heads while writing a program is a form of "mathematical reasoning", albeit informal and sometimes maybe undisciplined and sloppy, because formal reasoning (i.e.
		Mathematics, to the extent that I understand it at all, is something entirely different and doesn't seem to occur in the same part of my brain.
		Indeed, programs are not the first class of practically useful mathematical objects that folks had to come up with a heuristic of their own, outside the mainstream mathematics.

	A Statistical Manual For Forestry Research
		The terms class and class interval are often used interchangeably, although the class interval is actually a symbol for the class.
		In practice, the class boundaries are obtained by adding the upper limit of one class interval to the lower limit of the next higher class interval and dividing by 2.
		If the class intervals all have equal size, the heights of the rectangles are proportional to the class frequencies and it is then customary to take the heights numerically equal to the class frequencies.

	Peter Suber, "Mathematical Induction"
		"Mathematical induction" is unfortunately named, for it is unambiguously a form of deduction.
		It is like induction in that it generalizes to a whole class from a smaller sample.
		Mathematical induction is deductive, however, because the sample plus a rule about the unexamined cases actually gives us information about every member of the class.

	PEOPLE LIKE US: Social Class in America
		In grades 5-8, the mathematics curriculum should include numerous and varied experiences with problem solving as a method of inquiry and application so that students can formulate problems from situations within and outside mathematics; verify and interpret results with respect to the original problem situation; generalize solutions and strategies to new problem situations.
		In grades 5-8, the mathematics curriculum should develop the concepts underlying computation and estimation in various contexts so that students can develop, analyze, and explain procedures for computation and techniques for estimation; use computation, estimation, and proportions to solve problems; use estimation to check the reasonableness of results.
		In grades 5-8, the mathematics curriculum should include exploration of statistics in real-world situations so that students can systematically collect, organize, and describe data; construct, read, and interpret tables, charts, and graphs; make inferences and convincing arguments that are based on data analysis; evaluate arguments that are based on data analysis.

		It requires knowledge in differential equations, probability, and statistics and it is self-contained since the first half of the book is a summarry of methods needed to solve the problems presented in the second half.
		The students for such a class would need to have broad knowledge in applied mathematics, numerical analysis, partial differential equations, asymptotic analysis, perturbation methods, and techniques for nonlinear differential equations.
		This book considers mathematical modeling with a different perspective than most of the other books listed here: it introduces it through one or more specific techniques rather than through obtaining an insight on real-world problems with mathematical tools.

		The teacher requires students not simply to answer whether both sides of the equation are the same with a "yes" or "no," but to write down their conclusions.
		The teacher does not make this last point explicitly, perhaps because he expects that the class would know that, if the two sides have the same terms, they really are the same and will be equal for each value of x.

	Mathematical Modeling -- Cardinal Stritch University
		Mathematical Modeling is an area of applied mathematics that uses mathematical tools for exploring and studying "real world" problems.
		Beyond the content of individual courses, the major in mathematics is designed to prepare students for the 21st century by helping students to become problem solvers, effective communicators, users of appropriate technology, and team players.
		While each project is related to the mathematical strategies that covered in class activities and lecture, students are expected to do some reading beyond the textbook and some library research to gain a solid background understanding of the problem scenario.

		The classification was a good one for it correctly anticipated these subjects becoming applied mathematics (and in a small way contributed to this trend).
		The First Class of the Institute was Science with 60 members (and effectively the old Academy), the Second Class was Moral and Political Sciences with 36 members, the Third Class was literature and fine arts with 48 members.
		The two categories of Mathematical Sciences and Physical Sciences were retained for the First Class with Mathematical Sciences now divided into five: geometry; mechanics; astronomy; geography and navigation; and general physics.

		In mathematics the emphasis is still on practical, understanding and the use of appropriate mathematical language to describe shape, position, size and quantity.
		Mathematics is presented “in context” wherever possible so that it can be seen to be related to the world outside the classroom and the world of the child's imagination.
		This course is essentially devised to enable children to develop mastery of their mother tongue although it is also open to foreign children who have lived long enough in France to be fluent in the language and to benefit from a more advanced course than is available in the foreign language group.

	Isomorphism class - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An isomorphism class is a collection of mathematical objects isomorphic with a certain mathematical object.
		A mathematical object usually consists of a set and some mathematical relations and operations defined over this set.
		Isomorphism classes are often defined if the exact identity of the elements of the set is considered irrelevant, and the properties of the structure of the mathematical object are studied.
