[Help Write] AN Community Maths Textbook

[Syndicate]

Would anyone like to take over complex numbers?

The only topic left to do are: - Multiplication\ division in polar form
                                              - Euler representation
                                              - De Moivre's Theorem

Hey Qazser I forgot which one's I messaged you I'd be doing, would you mind telling me. I can probably get at least one of them typed up before next Wed.

You PMed me a few weeks ago saying you could help and wanted a preview, no topic stated

Sorry for late reply

Hey Qazser! It will be really helpful if you'd make a quick list on the topics being worked on so I can have choose the next topic to write on Thanks!

(This is a legitimate question, so please don't h8) If this is truly a 'community maths textbook', why isn't Further Maths included as part of this? A significant portion of members on here study FM.

Not trying to downplay your awesome contribution, because it really is awesome. I just thought it was a bit strange that one of the maths is being left out.

hehe, great question. Currently AN doesn't offer lectures for Further Maths which makes distribution of the textbook a tad more difficult(Aim of textbook is to benefit community out there, not for profit. If any profit is made, it goes towards development of AN). Additionally, i'm only doing Methods and Spesh so it would be hard for me to compile a textbook for Further Maths which i have no knowledge about. Maybe someone could take the iniative to do one for Further

I'm confused.
How does us not doing Further lectures prevent you from making a community book for it?

Intention was "Sell book, profit goes back to AN" as a gift from the community. Lectures are where the main bulk of notes/textbooks are sold, which means the hard-copy textbook would have to be sold online (more expensive b/c of shipping, handling. Plus extra work for An staff?). Less monetary gain for same effort put in?

And yeah have no clue on Further Maths stuff

Soooo... I don't think I'm anywhere near good enough to write a math textbook page that actually makes sense to anyone but me.

BUT I was the psycho who read her math textbook like a reading book last year... several times... and actually loved doing it. If you want, would love to read over some pages and see if it makes grammatical and mathematical sense.

Keeping in mind that I'm a current VCE student so it may take me a week... or two... to finish one page.

If there ever is a FM textbook ill be glad to help.

Glad you will be able to look over it. PM me for link to what we've written so far.

Hey I'll be carrying on writing on Function Operation, namely on inverse and composite functions.

Hey guys,

I have attached a copy of the unfinished Complex Numbers file. If anyone is interested, you can carry out the work as you wish

Thanks
