The calculus we have come to know and love has been around for quite some time, dating all the way back to its “creation” which is credited to Newton and

    Unlike geometry, algebra was not developed in Europe. Algebra was actually discovered (or developed) in the Arab countries along side geometry. Many mathematicians worked and developed the system of math to be known as the algebra of today. European countries did not obtain information on algebra until relatively later years of the 12th century. After algebra was discovered in Europe, mathematicians put the information to use in very remarkable ways. Also, algebraic and geometric ways of thinking

    Mathematics is defined as "the abstract science of number, quantity, and space", and to many individuals, this definition is very black and white (Definition of mathematics in English by Oxford Dictionaries). Copious people do not like mathematics, as they do not have an appreciation for it. Before I took this class, I had a much narrower understanding and weaker background on mathematics due to how I was taught these topics throughout my time in primary schooling. After taking The Joy of Mathematics

    be my Math Analysis Honors course. My main struggle was fully understanding the curriculum that I avoided my sophomore year, with Algebra 2 Honors. The curriculum was knowing the domain and range of a graph, I assumed that this notion would stay in Algebra 2 and not follow me into my next math course. Starting off the year, the class was simple as it was review of Algebra 2, however days later I am faced with domain and range. I took tests that dealt with this concept and would always get those specific

    Fig. 10 compares the switching instances between – (i) CSFSVPWM and VSFSVPWM, and (ii) CSFDPWM2 and VSFDPWM2. It also shows the shape of the switching frequency variation for each sector. The following can be noted: - The VSFSVPWM reduces 3 switching instances per cycle compared to CSFSVPWM, a 13.6 % reduction. - The VSFDPWM reduces 2 switching instance per cycle compared to CSFDPWM, a 12.5% reduction. Hence, the proposed variable switching frequency PWM reduces the switching instances within a
