Machin-like Formula
In mathematics, Machin-like formulae are a popular technique for computing to a large number of digits. They are generalizations of John Machin's formula from 1706: :\frac = 4 \arctan \frac - \arctan \frac which he used to compute to 100 decimal places. Machin-like formulas have the form where c_0 is a positive integer, c_n are signed non-zero integers, and a_n and b_n are positive integers such that a_n < b_n. These formulas are used in conjunction with the expansion for arctangent: Derivation The angle addition formula for ar ...[...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Card
''The Card'' is a comic novel written by Arnold Bennett in 1911 (entitled ''Denry the Audacious'' in the American edition). It was later made into a 1952 movie, starring Alec Guinness and Petula Clark. Like much of Bennett's best work, it is set in the Potteries District of Staffordshire. It chronicles the rise of Edward Henry ("Denry") Machin from washerwoman's son to Mayor of Bursley (a fictitious town based on Burslem). This is accomplished through luck, initiative and a fair bit of cheek (in slang a card is a 'character', an 'original'; a clever, audacious, person). Denry Machin returned, as the slightly more mature "Edward Henry", in Bennett's sequel ''The Regent'' (1913) (titled ''The Old Adam'' in its first US edition). Plot The novel begins when "Edward Henry Machin first saw the smoke on May 27, 1867"—the very day of Bennett's own birth. At age 12, Denry begins his career by altering his marks in a test sufficiently to earn him a scholarship to grammar school. At ...
