New chapter - Money Math

By Murray Bourne, 07 Mar 2006

I have said elsewhere in this blog that a lot of the mathematics that students are forced to do is of doubtful use in later life. And one of the most important kinds of mathematics, financial maths, is often left out of most academic math courses.

So I figured I should put my math money where my mouth is, and write a money maths chapter.

So here it is...

Money Math.

HTML: You can use simple tags like <b>, <a href="...">, etc.

To enter math, you can can either:

  1. Use simple calculator-like input in the following format (surround your math in backticks, or qq on tablet or phone):
    `a^2 = sqrt(b^2 + c^2)`
    (See more on ASCIIMath syntax); or
  2. Use simple LaTeX in the following format. Surround your math with \( and \).
    \( \int g dx = \sqrt{\frac{a}{b}} \)
    (This is standard simple LaTeX.)

NOTE: You can mix both types of math entry in your comment.
