Symbolic Mathematics and Mathematical Functions

In this chapter, we discuss symbolic mathematical operations, including algebraic operations on real scalar variables, algebraic operations on real vector variables, and algebraic operations on complex scalar variables. We introduce the concept of a mathematical function and discuss trigonometric functions, logarithms and the exponential function. [Pg.21]

Algebra is a branch of mathematics in which operations are performed symbolically instead of numerically, according to a well-defined set of rules. [Pg.21]

Trigonometric functions are examples of mathematical functions To a given value of an angle there corresponds a value of the sine function, and so on. [Pg.21]

Vector algebra is an extension of ordinary algebra with its own rules and defined operations. [Pg.21]

A complex munber has a real part and an imaginary part that is proportional to i, defined to equal [Pg.21]
