I would like to discuss Classical mechanics quite a bit, specifically about math necessary for Lagrangian mechanics in this post. I am going off of a derivation that John Baez made fairly rigorous, but my target audience is not as mathematically savvy as to just read his [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=angryphysicist.wordpress.com&blog=1074126&post=133&subd=angryphysicist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Alrighty, in this epic tome I introduced the Fourier series. I reviewed the Gibbs phenomena, when we have discontinuities the partial sums appear to sort of &#8220;overshoot&#8221; the function near the discontinuities; [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=angryphysicist.wordpress.com&blog=1074126&post=101&subd=angryphysicist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Unfortunately, however, I didn&#8217;t get to evaluating definite integrals or infinite sums using residues so I had me a good cry [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=angryphysicist.wordpress.com&blog=1074126&post=86&subd=angryphysicist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

OK, so the basic idea behind floating point [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=angryphysicist.wordpress.com&blog=1074126&post=62&subd=angryphysicist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
