Through teaching, I’ve occasionally written good stand-alone notes. Many can be found by browsing the teaching category here. Some which I find particularly good are noted below.
- An Intuitive Introduction to Calculus
- An Intuitive Overview of Taylor Series
- A Brief Notebook on Cryptography
- Notes from a Talk on the Mean Value Theorem
- A first and second supplemental set of notes on the Gaussian integers
- A Friendly Introduction to Sieves, with a Look Towards Recent Results
- A short note on common, but oft-forgotten properties of the gamma and beta functions
David Lowry-Duda October 19, 2021 at 7:14 pm on An Intuitive Overview of Taylor SeriesHi Bob! The behavior of $c$ is actually quite subtle. It's not true that $c$ is actually a constant. For "nice" functions, what is true is that the mean value $c$ varies continuously over intervals (except at finitely many points). Combined with a form of Darboux's theorem (stating that every function that is the derivative of another function has the ---
Bob October 18, 2021 at 6:09 pm on An Intuitive Overview of Taylor SeriesIt's been a while since there was a comment here, but I'll give it a try in the hope for a response. Your proof gives me a sense of validation in my own work, although I still have questions. I wrote a very similar idea here: https://math.stackexchange.com/q/4277898/225136 . As you can see from a comment that someone left, the proof ---

Jan van Delden February 25, 2021 at 5:07 pm on phase_mag_plot: a sage package for plotting complex functionsI took the liberty to download your SageMath module and changed a few options. Since I was not completely clear on the interaction between lightness and color (defined by the argument of the function to be displayed) I decided to weigh these differently. Color, from the colorwheel by 0.8 and lightness by 0.2. I computed the color first and weighed ---
eliot December 23, 2020 at 4:07 pm on Trigonometric and related substitutions in integralsFor Euler substitutions, do you mind explaining the reasoning for the t term in x*sqrt(a) + t. Is there anywhere else I can read up on this? Thanks for this post!
