Modern Calculus texts emphasize that a function can be expressed in four different ways. Verbal - This is the first way functions are presented in the function game: Double and add six. Algebraic - This is the most common, most concise, and most powerful representation: 2x+6 . Note that in an algebraic representation, the input number is represented as a variable (in this case, an x). Numerical - This can be done as a list of value pairs, as (4,14) meaning that if a 4 goes in, a 14 comes out. (You may recognize this as in graphing.) (x,y) points used

Graphical - This is discussed in detail in the section on graphing.These are not four different types of functions: they are four different views of the same function. One of the most important skills in Algebra is converting a function between these different forms, and this theme will recur in different forms throughout the text.

Charles Goodyear (December 29, 1800 July 1, 1860) was the first to vulcanize rubber, a process which he discovered in 1839 and patented on June 15, 1844. Although Goodyear is often credited with its invention, modern evidence has proven that the Mesoamericans used stabilized rubber for balls and other objects as early as 1600 BC. Goodyear discovered the vulcanization process accidentally after five years of searching for a more stable rubber. Lorenzo Romano Amedeo Lacquisha Carlo Avogadro di Quaregna e di Cerreto,Count of Quaregna and Cerreto (9 August 1776, Turin, Piedmont 9 July 1856) was anItalian savant. He is most noted for his contributions to molecular theory, including what is known as Avogadro's law. In tribute to him, the number of elementary entities (atoms,molecules, ions or other particles) in 1 mole of a substance, 6.02214179(30)1023, is known as the Avogadro constant.

Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev (also romanized Mendeleyev or Mendeleef; Russian) (8 February [O.S. 27 January] 1834 2 February [O.S. 20 January] 1907), was a Russian chemist and inventor. He is credited as being the creator of the first version of the periodic table of elements. Using the table, he predicted the properties of elements yet to be discovered.

Robert Boyle (25 January 1627 31 December 1691) was an Irish-born British[1]natural philosopher, chemist, physicist, and inventor, also noted for his writings intheology. He is best known for Boyle's law.[2] Although his research and personal philosophy clearly has its roots in the alchemical tradition, he is largely regarded today as the first modern chemist, and therefore one of the founders of modern chemistry. Among his works, The Sceptical Chymist is seen as a cornerstone book in the field of chemistry. Jacques Alexandre Csar Charles (November 12, 1746, Beaugency, Loiret April 7, 1823) was a French inventor, scientist, mathematician, and balloonist. Charles and the Robert brothers launched the world's first (unmanned) hydrogen-filled balloon in August 1783, then in December 1783, Charles and his copilot Nicolas-Louis Robert ascended to a height of about 1,800 feet (550 m) in a manned balloon. Their pioneering the use of hydrogen for lift led to this type of balloon being named a Charlire (as opposed to a Montgolfire which used hot air). Charles's law, describing how gases tend to expand when heated, was formulated by Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac in 1802, but he credited it to unpublished work by Jacques Charles. Charles was elected to the Acadmie des Sciences, in 1793, and subsequently became professor of physics at the Conservatoire des Arts et Mtiers. John Dalton FRS (6 September 1766 27 July 1844) was an English chemist, meteorologistand physicist. He is best known for his pioneering work in the development of modern atomic theory, and his research into colour blindness (sometimes referred to as Daltonism, in his honour).

Ernest Rutherford, 1st Baron Rutherford of Nelson, OM, FRS (30 August 187119 October 1937) was a British-New Zealand chemist and physicist who became known as the father of nuclear physics.[1] In early work he discovered the concept of radioactive half life, proved that radioactivity involved the transmutation of one chemical element to another, and also differentiated and named alpha and beta radiation. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1908 "for his investigations into the disintegration of the elements, and the chemistry of radioactive substances". Rutherford performed his most famous work after he received this prize. In 1911, he postulated that atoms have their positive charge concentrated in a very smallnucleus,[3] and thereby pioneered the Rutherford model, or planetary, model of theatom, through his discovery and interpretation of Rutherford scattering in his gold foil experiment. He is widely credited with first splitting the atom in 1917, and leading thefirst experiment to "split the nucleus" in a controlled manner by two students under his direction, John Cockcroft and Ernest Walton in 1932. Arnold Johannes Wilhelm Sommerfeld (5 December 1868 26 April 1951) was aGerman theoretical physicist who pioneered developments in atomic and quantum physics, and also educated and groomed a large number of students for the new era oftheoretical physics. He introduced the fine-structure constant into quantum mechanics.

Johann Wolfgang Dbereiner (December 13, 1780 March 24, 1849) was a Germanchemist who is best known for work that foreshadowed the periodic law for the chemical elements. As a coachman's son, Dbereiner had little opportunity for formal schooling, and so he was apprenticed to an apothecary, reading widely, and attending science lectures. He eventually became a professor at the University of Jena in 1810. In work beginning in 1817, Dbereiner discovered trends in certain properties of selected groups of elements. For example, the average atomic mass of lithium and potassium was close to the atomic mass of sodium. A similar pattern was found with calcium, strontium, and barium, with sulphur, selenium, and tellurium, and also with chlorine, bromine, and iodine. Moreover, the densities for some of these triads followed a similar pattern. These sets of elements became known as "Dbereiner's triads".[1][2] Dbereiner also is known for his discovery of furfural, for his work on the use of platinum as a catalyst, and for a lighter, known as Dbereiner's lamp. The German writer Goethe was a friend of Dbereiner, attended his lectures weekly, and used his theories of chemical affinities as a basis for his famous 1809 novella Elective Affinities. John Newlands was the first person to devise a Periodic Table of elements arranged in order of their relative atomic weights (now called relative atomic masses). Continuing with Dbereiners work with triads, in 1865 he published his law of octaves which states that any given element will exhibit analogues behaviour to the eighth element following it in the table". Newlands arrangement showed all known elements arranged in seven groups which he likened to theoctaves of music.. The elements are ordered by atomic weights that were known at the time. They were numbered sequentially to show the order of atomic weights. In Newlands table periods and groups are shown going down and across the table, respectively the opposite from the modern periodic table. This law of octaves, however, was ridiculed by his contemporaries. In 1894, Newlands had a child by the name of Christopher Maddocks Newlands. Julius Lothar Meyer (August 19, 1830 - April 11, 1895) was a German chemist. He was contemporary and competitor of Dmitri Mendeleev to draw up the first periodic table of chemical elements. Some five years apart, both Mendeleev and Meyer worked with Robert Bunsen. Meyer's contributions also included the concept that the carbon atoms in benzene were arranged in a ring, although he did not propose the alternation of single and double bonds that later became included in the structure by Kekul. During the Franco-German campaign, the Polytechnic was used as a hospital, and he took an active part in the care of the wounded. In 1876, Meyer became the first Professor of Chemistry at the University of Tbingen, where he served until his death there. Antonie Philips van Leeuwenhoek (in Dutch also Anthonie, Antoni, or Theunis, inEnglish, Antony or Anton) [1] (born on October 24, 1632 and died on August 26, 1723 buried on August 30) was a Dutch tradesman and scientist from Delft,Netherlands. He is commonly known as "the Father of Microbiology", and considered to be the first microbiologist. He is best known for his work on the improvement of themicroscope and for his contributions towards the establishment of microbiology. Using his handcrafted microscopes he was the first to observe and describe single celled organisms, which he originally referred to as animalcules, and which we now refer to as microorganisms. He was also the first to record microscopic observations of muscle fibers, bacteria, spermatozoa and blood flow in capillaries (small blood vessels). Van Leeuwenhoek never authored any books, but wrote many letters.
