Examined are the three regular tessellations and derived semiregular tessellations whose regular polygons meet at common vertices. Included are BASIC computer program listings that explore the various combinations of regular polygons that can form regular or semiregular tessellations. (JJK)

Proposes an alternative means of approximating the value of complex integrals, the Monte Carlo procedure. Incorporating a discrete approach and probability, an approximation is obtained from the ratio of computer-generated points falling under the curve to the number of points generated in a predetermined rectangle.

This book attempts to introduce students to the creative aspects of mathematics through exploratory problems. The introduction presents the criteria for the selection of the problems in the book. Criteria indicate that problems should: be immediately attractive, require data to be generated or gathered, appeal to students from junior high school…
