Fungrim: The Mathematical Functions Grimoire
- 6gvONxR4sf7o 6y agoAnyone interested in this might be interested in the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions https://dlmf.nist.gov/ https://dlmf.nist.gov/ It’s the digital successor to the Handbook of Mathematical Functions with Formulas, Graphs, and Mathematical Tables by NIST’s predecessor NBS. It’s a classic reference which google scholar says has like 120k citations. It’s colloquially called “Abramowitz and Stegun” after the editors. My pet hypothesis is that it’s so well known partially because “Ab...” tends to put as the very first entry in most of those 120k reference lists. It’s a super handy reference for all sorts of various properties of special functions. To say it’s extensive is an understatement.
- zokier 6y agoThe special thing about Fungrim is this tidbit: > All data in Fungrim is represented in semantic form designed to be usable by computer algebra software In that sense its maybe closer to Axiom
- memco 6y agoLooks like a great resource. A little sad not to see Tau on there.
