This MATLAB video tutorial shows you how to reverse the direction of an aixs or to change an axis to log scale. if (typeof(playerLoaded) === ‘undefined’) {var playerLoaded = false;}(function… read more >>

I work in technical support, so very often I get strange requests. Really strange. My first question is “Why do you want to do that?” The reason I ask this is very often new… read more >>

Even though you can have the output of one function act as the input to another directly, this can be confusing to read. Sometimes, using temporary variable will allow you to clarify your… read more >>

As with many math geeks, I am fascinated with games of “probability theory and applied psychology” (also known as Poker!). At a recent game this debate came out: “Does running it… read more >>
