Chapter 4: Geometry covers all aspects of geometry: points, lines, planes, sur-
faces, polyhedra, coordinate systems, and differential geometry.
Chapter 5: Continuous Mathematics covers calculus material: differentiation, in-
tegration, differential and integral equations, and tensor analysis. A large table
of integrals is included. This chapter also includes differential forms and or-
thogonal coordinate systems.
Chapter 6: Special Functions contains a sequence of functions starting with the
trigonometric, exponential, and hyperbolic functions, and leading to many of
the common functions encountered in applications: orthogonal polynomials,
gamma and beta functions, hypergeometric functions, Bessel and elliptic func-
tions, and several others. This chapter also contains sections on Fourier and
Laplace transforms, and includes tables of these transforms.
Chapter 7: Probability and Statistics begins with basic probability information (de n -
ing several common distributions) and leads to common statistical needs (point
estimates, con d ence intervals, hypothesis testing, and ANOVA). Tables of the
normal distribution, and other distributions, are included. Also included in this
chapter are queuing theory, Markov chains, and random number generation.
Chapter 9: Financial Analysis contains the formulae needed to determine the re-
turn on an investment and how to determine an annuity (i.e., the cost of a
mortgage). Numerical tables covering common values are included.
Chapter 10: Miscellaneous contains details on physical units (de nition s and con-
versions), formulae for date computations, lists of mathematical and electronic
resources, and biographies of famous mathematicians.
It has been exciting updating this edition and making it as useful as possible.
But it would not have been possible without the loving support of my family, Janet
Taylor and Kent Taylor Zwillinger.
