Upper Secondary Form 4 Addition Mathematics : CHAPTER 1 : Functions. The main goal of the book is to present the author's philosophy of mathematics, answering the question “what is mathematics?”. UPPER SECONDARY FORM 4 ADDITION MATHEMATICS Copy and do in your exercise book. The letter described several new functions that behaved differently from known theta functions, or modular forms, and yet closely mimicked them. Recommend the use of mathematical form, namely the functional dependency (FD) to the performance. I have just finished reading “Mathematics – form and function” by Saunders Mac Lane. The ordinary real numbers sit inside the complex numbers – they are of the form $a+i0$ – and they correspond to points on the plane whose second coordinate is 0. DeMorgan's rule, NAND operations, etc.), and so do I; they correspond. That position is what I take to be an instance .. Off the top of my head I can think of a counterexample: my computer performs various mathematical and logical functions (e.g. When you light up that vascular structure with some fluorescent dye and view it using time-lapse photography, details begin to emerge that reveal nature's mathematical formula for survival. To reach that conclusion one must take the additional step of assuming a form of greedy reductionism, where the lowest level is the only one that matters, everything above it being somehow illusory or misleading.
