Ce blog a pour sujet les mathématiques et leur enseignement
au Lycée. Son but est triple.
Premièrement, ce blog est pour moi une manière idéale de
classer les informations que je glâne au cours de mes voyages en Cybérie.
Deuxièmement, ces billets me semblent bien adaptés à la
génération zapping de nos élèves. Ces textes courts
et ces vidéos, privilégiant le côté ludique des maths,
pourront, je l'espère, les intéresser et leur donner l'envie d'en
savoir plus.
Enfin, c'est un bon moyen de communiquer avec des collègues de toute
la francophonie.
Describe your data with statistics, and visualize it with line graphs, bar charts, and scatter plots
Explore set theory and probability with programs for coin flips, dicing, and other games of chance
Solve algebra problems using Python's symbolic math functions
Draw geometric shapes and explore fractals like the Barnsley fern, the Sierpinski triangle, and the Mandelbrot set
Write programs to find derivatives and integrate functions
Creative coding challenges and applied examples help you see how you can put your new math and coding skills into practice. You'll write an inequality solver, plot gravity's effect on how far a bullet will travel, shuffle a deck of cards, estimate the area of a circle by throwing 100,000 "darts" at a board, explore the relationship between the Fibonacci sequence and the golden ratio, and more.
Whether you're interested in math but have yet to dip into programming or you're a teacher looking to bring programming into the classroom, you'll find that Python makes programming easy and practical. Let Python handle the grunt work while you focus on the math.
