Usage Of Scientfic Calculators For Matrix Multiplication

Scientific Calculators are one of the basic instruments needed for an Engineer in his career.In most of the colleges the scientific calculator prescribed will be CASIO fx-991 MS.So in this article I have written the usage of scientific calculator for the purpose of matrix multiplication. Eventhough the usage of scientific calculator is given in the user manual this article may give you some visualisation of the application that it has on Engineering Mathematics-I. Consider the 3x3 matrix: |1   3   5||3   7   9||4   6   2|&nb...

An Introduction To Algorithms

ALGORITHMSINTRODUCTION Algorithms are one of the most basic tools that are used to develop the problem the problem solving logic. “An algorithm is defined as finite sequence of explicit instructions that, when provided with a set of input values produces an output and then terminates.” In algorithm, after a finite number of steps, a solution of the problem is achieved. Algorithm can have steps that repeat (iterate) or require decisions (logic and comparison) until task is completed. Different algorithms may accomplish the same task, with a different set of instructions, in more or less the same time, space and efforts. CHARACTERISTICS OF ALGORITHMS Algorithms are not computer programs, as they cannot be executed by a computer In order to qualify as a good algorithm, it must posses...

How to Convert A Binary Number To Decimal Number

The Decimal number system consists has ten values ranging from 0 to 9.The Binary system consists of only two values 0 and 1. Number conversions are very useful for Engineering, especially during first semester. This article is very useful to help students convert Binary Numbers to Decimal Numbers.It is preferred that engineering students also learn How to Decimal Numbers to Binary Numbers. In order to differentiate decimal numbers with binary numbers Base values of 10 and 2 are given in subscripts such as Binary numbers are represented as 100111(2) (read as 100111 to the base 2)and decimal numbers are represented as 39(10) (read as 39 to the base 10).To convert binary numbers to decimal numbers just follow these simple steps: Let us consider a binary number 100111(2).In Order to convert...
