The Brilliant Calculator
Author: Jan Lower
Publisher: Astra Publishing House
ISBN: 1662680074
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 43
Book Description
A Mathical Honor Book Hidden Figures meets Rosie Revere, Engineer in this STEM/STEAM picture book about Edith Clarke, the innovator who solved an electrical mystery and built the first graphing calculator—from paper! Long before calculators were invented, little Edith Clarke devoured numbers, conquered calculations, cracked puzzles, and breezed through brainteasers. Edith wanted to be an engineer—to use the numbers she saw all around her to help build America. When she grew up, no one would hire a woman engineer. But that didn’t stop Edith from following her passion and putting her lightning-quick mind to the problem of electricity. But the calculations took so long! Always curious, Edith couldn’t help thinking of better ways to do things. She constructed a “calculator” from paper that was ten times faster than doing all that math by hand! Her invention won her a job, making her the first woman electrical engineer in America. And because Edith shared her knowledge with others, her calculator helped electrify America, bringing telephones and light across the nation.

Mathematics, Puzzles, Riddles, Expositions
Author: Merle A. Barlow
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1490865675
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
div> This book provides an interesting mixture of mathematical questions, puzzles & riddles, and explanatory information regarding various topics. Do not be reluctant to enjoy the mathematics section, because all questions have answers and solutions – you can have the satisfaction of understanding the detailed solutions. This is true for all three sections of the book. Scientists use various instruments in studying the subjects of their research. Mathematicians also employ an instrument for their analysis and research. Their instrument, however, is not a physical device. The mathematician’s significant resource is an intellectual instrument, having the functionality of reason and inspiration. This instrument cannot be seen. But, also, no one has ever seen a geometric point, or a number. You have seen the symbol that is written to represent a number, but the number itself has no physical existence that can be experienced with any of our five senses that were given to us by the Creating, Sustaining, and Redeeming God of all Reality. Mathematicians work with ideas, and so it is appropriate that their significant instrument is mental, because the very substance and essence of mathematics exists only in the human imagination. In the brevity of this book, you can only experience a few snapshots or portraits of the materialization of some thoughts and ideas relating to the reality of our universe. It is my desire that you (the reader) will determine this kaleidoscope of ideas to be an incentive to recognize and enjoy some of the abundant treasures of our existence.
