Gods Gift To Calculators: The Taylor Series
... given above, with polynomials. These polynomials, called Taylor
Polynomials, are easy for a calculator manipulate because the calculator uses
only the four basic arithmetic operators.
So how do mathematicians take a function and turn it into a polynomial
function? Lets find out. First, lets assume that we have a function in the form
y= f(x) that looks like the graph below.
We'll start out trying to approximate function values near x=0. To do
this we start out using the lowest order polynomial, f0(x)=a0, that passes
through the y-intercept of the graph (0,f(0)). So f(0)=ao.
Next, we see that the graph ...

Mill's And Sidgwick's Utilitarianism: Sacrifice The Innocent For The Common Good?
... reasoned procedures of philosophy are those of analyzing and unifying materials otherwise provided.
In deciding whether or not to torture a terrorist who has planted a bomb in New York City, a utilitarian must evaluate both the overall welfare of the people involved or effected by the action taken, and the consequences of the action taken. To calculate the welfare of the people involved in or effected by an action, utilitarianism requires that all individuals be considered equally.
Quantitative utilitarian people would weigh the pleasure and pain which would be caused by the bomb exploding against the pleasure ...

Agression In Males
... turned himself in to the police with a nonchalance that seemed eerily out of place.
The crime that Charles committed was a terrible one at that, but why? Why would some one do such a thing and seem to have no emotion about it what so ever? Why would someone so young, someone, who seemed to have their whole life ahead of them, bludgeon, stab, and then proceed to rape a corpse? To get the answers to these questions we must try to understand Charles and see what the drive is behind his homicidal tendencies.
Charles himself has been the victim of some gruesome crimes. From the time of his birth he was not a wanted chi ...

Gender Projects
... neither clearly male nor clearly female. First to ground this issue, Kessler points out that it is very hard to diagnose an intersexed infant. She states that if a doctor sees the male genitalia than he or she assumes that the infant is male, otherwise it is female. Another ground for her claim is how a physician determines if the intersex child should be transformed to a male or a female. The doctors try to choose the sex of the child, such that there is minimal transformation. She suggests that the criteria for choosing the sex is based on the “way her/his genitals look or could be made to look”. (13) B ...

The Anasazi Indians
... dwell in cliffs faced to catch the
winter sun and shaded in summer, with enough floodplain to grow something
and a source of water. These two story stone dwellings in cliffs were built
large enough to fit 30 people in them. There is one odd fact about this:
the Anasazi supposedly carried roof beams more than 50 miles from the
forests of Mt. Taylor and Chuskas. These Indians lived as small scattered
families of hunters and seed gatherers. They developed agriculture, learned
to make baskets and irrigate.
The Anasazi religion was very different compared to other religions
of the world. Anasazi Indians chose to bury the ...

Descartes Meditations
... is churches, parents, and schools, he says, are not reliable sources for truth because time shows we all die, and that we are eventually proved wrong, much in the same way the accepted truths of science have changed dramatically over the course of history. Also, he considers the generally excepted view that our senses dependably report the absolute nature of reality. Like authority though, Descartes discards the senses as a source of truth because of the ‘Dream Argument’ or the belief that based on the senses there is no definite way of proving that you are dreaming or that you are awake. Therefore it ...

Forgotten War Crimes
... forgotten simply because America does not want to take
responsibility actions and admit to what happened. This tragic event is simply
swept under that carpet and neglected and termed a strategic bombing with
military objectives. This bombing may have been strategic but it certainly did
not have any military objectives which are stated throughout much of American
history. It was, however, the strategic bombing and slaughtering of a quarter
million innocent civilians.
American history textbooks and documentaries state that the official
objective in the bombing of Dresden was to destroy railway yards, thus delayi ...

CRIMINAL MOTIVATION
... are free will theories, which are crimes that are committed because of someone exercising their free will. Next there are biological theories, theories which suggest that a person is criminal since the day that they are born, due to their genes. There are also psychobiological theories, which say things like environment and physical trauma can make someone into a criminal. Psychological theories suggest that crime is the result of a rotten mind or wrongful behavioral upbringing. Also there are sociological theories which state that the structure of society create the crimes, as well as social-psychological t ...
