I took seven courses in calculus and linear algebra while attending university. This subject was, by far, my strongest. This category will contain articles pertaining to the subject of mathematics. I will use this category mainly for my easy reference.

Sub-Categories

• Algebra
• Trigonometry
• Calculus
• Linear Algebra

CAS and numerical analysis

• wikipedia:GNU Octave — a free computer program for performing numerical computations which is mostly compatible with MATLAB
• wikipedia:Mathomatic — a free, portable, general purpose computer algebra system (CAS)

Misc

Note: Sandbox entry

Al-Khwārizmī's method of solving linear and quadratic equations worked by first reducing the equation to one of six standard forms (where b and c are positive integers)

• squares equal roots (x² = bx)
• squares equal number (x² = c)
• roots equal number (bx = c)
• squares and roots equal number (x² + bx = c)
• squares and number equal roots (x² + c = bx)
• roots and number equal squares (bx + c = x²)

Wikipedia and its sister project, WikiBooks, have many really good articles on just about everything related to mathematics. I will list some of the best articles (and categories) here:

• WikiBooks - Wikiversity - School of Mathematics
• Wikipedia category on mathematics
• Wikipedia article on mathematics
