This film discusses the concept of functions in mathematics, emphasizing their importance and modern formulations. It explains how to create ordered pairs from a set of numbers and illustrates how ...

Mathematicians used “magic functions” to prove that two highly symmetric lattices solve a myriad of problems in eight- and 24-dimensional space. The points could be an infinite collection of electrons ...

What if instead of defining a mesh as a series of vertices and edges in a 3D space, you could describe it as a single function? The easiest function would return the signed distance to the closest ...

There is a function in math called the “Greatest Integer Function,” which assigns a value to every number that is the largest integer less than or equal to that number. For example, the numbers 1, 1.2 ...
