    The lecturers discussions has inspired me to think more on i tpe sine wave wave pulses that oscillate towards imaginary may be able to record more on computer chips.In between 1and zero the x function may be integrarated to give an inverse function from logarithmic function.This may be differentiated from an inverse function towards logarithmic function.This means any blue crystal absortion may be along absorbing imaginary i type pulses as rotation along e^itheta may follow a typical conjecture that moves along imaginary vertical axis as it converges at that particular real axis.

    In the UK this topic is covered in A-Level Further Maths, studied by 17 to 18 year olds. They study it before they even get to university. I think this video highlights how low US university standards are compared to the UK's.

    • @freeeagle6074
      @freeeagle6074 2 года назад

      America has AP calculus at high school which is equal to 3 credit points of a 1st-year college course. The AP is similar to the A-Level calculus in UK. America has an scientifically-designed education system that starts with easy-to-understand concepts in an area but very quickly goes to in-depth ideas. Seminars arrive at the pinnacle where you read about 4 recent papers every week (sometimes a book) on a topic and each study group usually gives a presentation every week. Many final projects from the seminar are publishable at academic conferences or journals.

But I can't ever remember anyone proving to me that the given power series of Sin and Cos, ARE in fact true. and at last, I have been enlightened! (Did Taylor's series decades ago!!!) Oh, IF you're an electrician, you use j, not i!!

      @nandakumarcheiro 2 года назад

      This gives further further information on Ramanujan sum 1+2+3+4........converges as -1/12 as it enters a cos x power series the condition under which it becomes a negative value linked with Reimann function that oscillate along real plane of x axis suddenly enters a plane of imaginary axis at-1/2 of Reimann axis.This means Reimann conjecture oscillate along real sine axis suddenly jumps towards imaginary cos function plane giving peculiar information on Reimann conjecture series of a function.

    Great lecture! I've never seen this done before.
    That being said, he missed a huge opportunity at ~25:00, where he could have quickly shown one of the most amazing facts in mathematics. What happens when theta = pi?
    e^i[pi] = cos [pi] +i sin [pi]
    cos [pi] = -1
    sin [pi] = 0
    therefore...
    e^i[pi] = -1

    Well, this is not a very "strict" mathematic proof.
    you cannot tell that d(x-> sum(a(k).x^k))/dx = sum (k.a(k)x^(k-1) unless you verify that you have the right to do so.
    x->exp(-1/x²) is a counter example.

      @jupatj24 10 лет назад

      Because Pi is a nice number to compute trigonometric functions. It doesn't matter which values you choose to evaluate Euler's formula, the formula will be valid. Again, we choose x=0 to develop the formula because that's the most convinient thing to do.

    • @joefagan9335
      @joefagan9335 9 лет назад +1

      WahranRai Good point. He lacks a little rigour here and doesn't show that the Taylor (well Maclauin series) converges everywhere to the function he's trying to represent. It happens to converge everywhere for e^x, Sin and Cos (which blows my mind!) to those functions and so it converges at Pi.

    • @salvatorecardamone7717
      @salvatorecardamone7717 8 лет назад +1

      +NirajC72 No, he means x to the fifth power, i.e. x*x*x*x*x. The derivative terms in the Taylor expansion for sin(x) are equal to either 1, 0 or -1. Typically if one wants to denote the derivative of a function, a prime will be used, e.g. df/dx = f'(x), d^2f/dx^2 = f''(x), etc. Alternatively, where the prime becomes cumbersome at higher order, you can use Roman numerals, e.g. d^5f/dx^5 = f^v(x)
