About This Site

Viewing

  • Netscape: This site uses some graphics (I fell victim to "Math with GIFs" syndrome to a certain extent), style sheets, some JavaScript, Java,and the odd Netscape extension. Therefore, it would be a good idea, if you don't have it already, to get Netscape 4 or better.
  • On the other hand, I want my pages to be at least readable on all browsers. If any of my pages look horrible in your browser, I'd like to hear about it.
  • I've rendered the headings in Goudy Medieval font. If you can use TrueType fonts on your computer, you may want to download it.
  • I've rendered exponents in various ways, depending on when I wrote the page. My latest try is as follows, so "ten to the power of twenty" is rendered as 10^20. There's a small image between the base and the exponent with alternate text of "^". The intent is that it should render fairly well even on browsers that don't support superscript.

    Content

    • Most content is related to number theory, logic, or recreational mathematics, although there are exceptions.
    • I don't have a table of contents, because that would assume linearly-related content. I may put up an index shortly, though.
    • Material that is a little involved is shown like this (probably in dark blue type); you can skip this stuff if you like/need (assuming that the words "like this" above looked different from the rest of the paragraph (-: ).
    • For definitions of some mathematical terms, see my glossary (which is unfinished though).
    • I'm always adding new material, so feel free to check back later.
    • If you have suggestions, corrections, questions, sites you'd like me to link to (either on one of my content pages or my math links page, or anything else, please contact me.

    Hosting

    E-mailing the Author

    I enjoy getting e-mail, so feel free to e-mail me. I can be reached at ajy@stormloader.com. A few things to keep in mind:

    • I reply to all e-mail sent to me that requires a response, although sometimes it takes a few weeks if I'm busy/enervated/swamped with other e-mail/etc.
    • If you haven't received a reply from me after a few weeks, please re-send your e-mail if you're still interested in a reply. I have received e-mails in the past (mostly from Microsoft mail clients) that have been so mangled that the sender's e-mail is illegible so I can't even let them reply to say that I couldn't read their e-mail.
    • I don't have MS Windows at home, so try not to send me attachments in Microsoft's proprietary formats (for example, .doc and .xls). I have a hard time reading these files. Send plain text attachments if possible, please.
