== Other Mathematical Operators == * Summation (β) ** Adds up a sequence of numbers. *** Finding totals, calculating areas under curves. * Product (β) ** Multiplies a sequence of numbers. *** Finding products, calculating volumes of irregular shapes. * Integral with Limits (β«βα΅) ** Computes the area under a curve between two points. *** Finding areas, computing volumes, calculating work. * Partial Derivative (β) ** Derivative of a function of several variables with respect to one variable, holding others constant. *** Multivariable calculus, optimization. * Infimum (inf) ** Greatest lower bound of a set. *** Optimization, analysis of functions. * Supremum (sup) ** Least upper bound of a set. *** Optimization, analysis of functions. * Absolute Value (|x|) ** Distance of a number from zero. *** Distance calculations, finding magnitudes. * Factorial (!) ** Product of all positive integers less than or equal to a given number. *** Counting permutations, combinations. * Round (round) ** Rounds a number to the nearest integer. *** Approximation, formatting numbers. * Logarithm (log) ** Inverse operation to exponentiation. *** Scaling, orders of magnitude, solving exponential equations. * Greatest Integer Function (βxβ) ** Greatest integer less than or equal to a given number. *** Floor function, truncating decimals. * Ceiling Function (βxβ) ** Smallest integer greater than or equal to a given number. *** Ceiling function, rounding up. * Signum Function (sgn) ** Returns the sign of a number. *** Determining direction, characterizing solutions.
