Peer reviewedTravers, Kenneth J. – Mathematics Teacher, 1977
Basic statistical concepts are discussed, steps for generating data having any desired correlation are outlined, and a flowchart, a BASIC computer program, and sample results are provided. (DT)
Descriptors: College Mathematics, Computer Programs, Higher Education, Instruction
Spero, Samuel W. – Calculators/Computers Magazine, 1978
A computer program is presented that generates problem sets involving sketching graphs of trigonometric functions using graphical addition. The students use calculators to sketch the graphs and a computer solution is used to check it. (MP)

Todd, Aaron R. – MATYC Journal, 1976
A programming problem on calculating the roots of a quadratic equation is used to illustrate the inexactness of computation with a digital computer. (DT)
Descriptors: Algebra, College Mathematics, Computation, Computer Programs
Peer reviewedAmes, D. M.; Leathard, D. A. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1978
The computer programs require the students to show that they understand the calculations by processing one set of data correctly themselves before the remaining sets are computed for them. (MP)
Descriptors: College Mathematics, Computation, Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Programs
Peer reviewedHoffman, Nathan – Two-Year College Mathematics Journal, 1978
The author presents three methods for dealing with the problem of the number of tosses of a fair coin needed to obtain two consecutive heads. (MN)
Descriptors: College Mathematics, Computer Programs, Game Theory, Higher Education
Hegarty, John C. – MATYC Journal, 1976
A computer-managed exercise to enhance the meaning of the first and second derivatives of a function at a point is explained. A copy of the program written in BASIC PLUS is included. (DT)
Descriptors: Calculus, College Mathematics, Computer Programs, Higher Education
Peer reviewedVidal-Madjar, A. – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1978
An instructional program is described involving six booklets on descriptive statistics and four computer programs on statistical tests. (MP)
Descriptors: College Mathematics, Computer Programs, Curriculum, Educational Programs
Hyde, Kendall; Tolman, David – Calculators/Computers Magazine, 1978
One lesson from a group of six computer-assisted lessons is described. The BASIC program is given along with a sample run. (MP)
Descriptors: Activity Units, Calculus, College Mathematics, Computer Assisted Instruction
Peer reviewedWoods, Dale; Flowers, Joe D. – School Science and Mathematics, 1976
A BASIC computer program is provided for producing the base ten digits of the known Mersenne primes and their associated perfect numbers. (DT)
