Melody:Edit: Doesn't anyone know how people are including symbols such as integral signs and +- signs into the body of their posts?
I thought perhaps they are using the control key. Any thoughts?
Melody:I have been using the character map since ILS told me about it. I really like it but I can't find the symbol 'pi' which seems really strange. Maybe it goes by a different name. Any suggestions?
Melody:Reinout-g and I like Serena have been investigating possible LaTex editors. ILS has said that 'mathjax' is probably the best because it is usually used in other forums.
Reinout seemed to think that the Latex could probably be delivered via a [tex][/tex] box. Do you think that this is how it would be ILS? Also, do you know if mathjax is freely available? I am unlikely to sell the idea to Andre Massow if there is a cost involved.
Melody:Hi everyone,
My last wrap was 3 days ago. I was not really intending to do one tonight. The regular posts were about to 'fall off the page' and I was seriouously considering leaving them there.
Anonymous4338 made me re-think. Thank you for your post on this thread. I am glad I made you happy. You have made me happy too.
Since my last wrap many great answers have been posted by Samgelinas, CPhill, Alan, Kitty<3, reinout-g, brabrams, guest, Rom and Anonymous4338. Thank you.
Samgelinas posted an addictive web game. Thanks for that. I have added the thread address to my collective 'games' thread.
I have written a post 'Information for new members' on the 'Become a member' thread. I have talked about a few things there, I can't actually remember what - You will have to take a look.
I have however explained how the private message system works. Unless you have any particular reason not to, it would be a good idea if you set an alert pop-up for new messages.
I have explained it all in the post. I sometimes want to contact members privately. This is the only way I can do it. Other people may also want to chat.

I think that is it for now.
Stay happy,

Hi all,
Well, our forum finally has its new look!
Chris has pointed out that there are lots of bugs at the picnic and so far my spray can of pyrethrum is not working.
We have no member section, private messaging is not working, the preview is not working, we cannot copy and paste within a post (using right click), some of the displays are not working properly. These are just some of the problems. Hopefully Andre Massow will fix these problems very soon. I am sure he is doing his best. I expect it is a very onorous task.
Hopefully it will come together a little better tomorrow.
I will do the credits next time.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Melody.
Tues 15th April 2014.
Hi everyone,
And, the questions just kept coming. It was just starting to get this busy a few weeks ago but then the forum went deadly quiet. Now suddenly the questions are coming think and fast. Why is that? Was there a problem with the old forum that was blocking posting or is it just a strange seasonal phenomenon? Maybe Andre knows, for I do not.
Anyway, there were lots of great answers from admin, Alan, (Chris and CPhill - another twin?), Bertie, yanes27, reinout-g, SpawnofAngel, deriam2kgmailcom. I thought Kitty was there too. Thank you everyone. You all do a great job. Over the last few days I am especially thankful to you Chris. There is no way I could have coped without you.
There are a lot of new members as well but i haven't been able to keep up with you all. Welcome to the forum. This forum is in the middle of a very comprehensive overhaul. It is slowly coming together. The site's designer Andre Massow is working long hours to try and remove the bugs and polish the final product. There is still a lot to do but over the past 48 hours it has vastly improved and I am sure it will continue to do so for a while yet. The private messaging is still not working. That, I believe is his main task at present. Thank you Andre.
The main forum tab is sorted on start date for the thread. Now Andre has introduced a new tab where the most recent posts are sorted on post time. This is something that the answerers really wanted but I think it needs to display more than just one page. A page may only reflect a few hours activity.
I now have some moderator privileges. Thank you Andre. I don't really understand them yet but I can make a post invisable to the rest of the forum and I can give a green tick to indicate when a question has been well answered. If I tick a question I am not sure if it can still be added to. Plus when I do this numbers get allocated and I don't understand their significance. I have ticked a few posts and Andre has also ticked some. Anyway it will take me a while to work out how to best use these privileges and in the mean time I will continue to use many of my old techniques. Any guidance from you will be appreciated.
I am sure that there are many more things that i need to discuss but I cannot think of what they are at present.
Good night/day.
Melody.
Hi all,
Great answers today from CPhill, SpawnofAngel, Alan, Bertie and Kitty<3.
The bugs are slowly being erradicated from the picnic that is web2.0calc forum. Hopefully the members section and private messaging will be working soon. I am also hoping that we will be able to post attachments in the not too distant future.
That is it for this Tuesday/Wednesday.
Melody
Hi everyone,
There is no way I can go through all the questions and answers like I usually do. There are just too many. I have ticked many of the questions that I think are fully answered. I am reluctant to tick my own answers unless I think someone has checked and given me a thumbs up or written acknowledgement of my accuracy. I think that you all have the ability to give a thumbs up or a thumbs down to any answer or question.
I am also reluctant to finalise questions when the answers are over my head. Unless another trusted answerer has checked (mainly for careless mistakes)
Andre has told me that he intends to eventually show the name of the last answerer - like how it used to be. It will be easier to check answers then.
Rom is back with us again, he said he thought the forum was down, the address is different now. I am wondering if Samgelinas is absent for the same reason. Can anyone contact him?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the moment these are what I see as the biggest problems. (I hope that Andre Massow is reading this)
I know that some of you would have different priorities.
**I hope that the member section and messaging system are working soon. The forum cannot function properly without these. People can contact me at melodymathforum@gmail.com
**I love having LaTex on the forum but I cannot answer to my usual standard because I cannot upload attachments. Also, when I try to use old information threads, the attachments do not display so they are useless. This is very frustrating.
*There is no preview facility.
*The input=result is not working
Thank you everyone. There are still a lot of problems but many others have already been fixed and I know that Andre Massow is continuing to work long hours to eradicate the ants and iron out the wrinkles. We just need to be patient.
Enjoy the rest of you day/evening.
Melody.
Hi everybody,
Once again we were swamped with questions. Reinout wrote me a letter yesterday and these are his words; "It seems like I'm trying to empty the sea with a bucket." I hope you don't mind me quoting you reinout. The fact is I was feeling the same way. Reinout's words helped me to formulate a strategy.
This is my view;
Members must get priority. Their questions should be answered as quickly and as comprehensively as possible. Anonymous postings should be treated much more casually. Only answer them if you have time and want to do so.
Could people please use the thumbs up and on occasion the thumbs down symbols when viewing other people's answers. I do not want to be the only one to decide if an answer is good or not. sometimes I do not even have the knowledge to do this.
Obviously all answerers are here because we like answering mathematics questions but the forum also has to be fun for us. We need to allocate time to light hearted banter and to group discussions on interesting topics. We need to be able to play with or learn from some the questions and answers that are presented to us. We can not do this if we allow routine answering to take up all our time.
Just prior to writing this wrap I posted a note saying 'All members questions have been answered' This will be my new wording for such posts.
I am sorry, I have not prepared a list of credits. There were many great answers and I thank you all.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I thought you might like me to include a few posts that you may find interesting.
These were a question (posted twice) and 2 answers that appealed to me today. I want to give them both more considerations. The answers were from Rom and Chris. I think the answers are similar but I haven't really thought about them properly yet. Thanks guys.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some people will find this one interesting
Reinout enjoyed this puzzle question. I took time out and enjoyed this puzzle as well! It is not super hard - why don't you take a look as well?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hopefully more of the forum features will be working soon.
Thank you all. For the Christians amoung you, Enjoy your 'Good Friday' or what is left of it. Oh, that sounds a bit prejudicial. I want everyone else to enjoy their Friday as well.

Hi everyone,
Great answers were presented today by Alan, SpawnofAngels, CPhill, Rom and Bertie. My thanks to each of you.
Not much more to report. There are still a lot of problems with the forum. But someone once said that 'patience is a virtue'.

Hi everyone,
There were lots of great answers delivered today by Alan, CPhill, Rom, Bioschip, Admin and Bertie. There were also a couple of good answers from anonymouse people. Thank you everyone, your efforts are much appreciated.
It is nice to see that someone other than me and admin is using the thumbs up system. This is just a way for you to say that you appreciated an answer. I would really like people to make more use of this system that Andre has set in place for us.
Andre now has a basic messaging system working for us. This is great, thank you.
Andre has also changed the second tab to 'Answers'. I haven't used it yet so I can't comment on its merits. Sorry.
--------------------------------------------
I think I liked this question and answer (by CPhill alternatively known as Chris) best today.
I also want to look at this answer by Alan, The first line is obvious but after that - I have to think about it.
And lastly this question by CountryGirl333 gained a lot of attention. CountryGirl interacted with answerers and this is always appreciated. Thank you CountryGirl333 It is good when we all get to interact with each other.
I am not at home at present and my access to the internet is poor. If I am quieter than usual that is probably why. Rural Australia has poor internet access. Although I am on the coast, not inland, so there is at least some coverage.
That's it for this Easter Sunday day/night.
Melody.
The messaging system is now working in a very basic way but you can still email me at
melodymathforum@gmail.com
Hi all,
There have been a LOT of questions. All member questions have been answered. Most, but not all, of the anonymous questions have been answered - there simply has not been enough time to answer all. Members must get priority. It is easy to join up and priority answering is one of the benefits.
Great answers were given by BlindxD, CPhill, reinout-g, Alan and CreeperCosmo. Thank you all. I hope I haven't left anyone out.
Old inbox messages have now been restored; thank you Andre. Old outbox messages are not restored yet and there is no way to delete messages. I have received many messages and I have responded to very few. The messages that I have sent are not displayed to me (because there is no outbox) so I am not keen to contact people this way. I would prefer it if people continue to use my personal email address to contact me. I will add the address at the end of this post.
It is now possible to very easily search another member’s posts. But I think this has to be done by clicking on the username. I don't think that you can actually type a username anywhere to bring it up. I might be wrong, I am feeling my way the same as everyone else.
Answerer names are now included on the 'questions' tab page and the 'answers' page. This is great. Thank you Andre.
I think Andre Massow has been experimenting with the second tab 'Answers Page'. This page is not working for me. I would really like it to be displayed much more like it was before the forum got its new look. Today I found a response from a question that was first entered a few days ago. It is only lucky that I saw it. I would like one of the display tabs to be questions sorted on most recent post. To the best of my knowledge, this is what other primary answerers want as well. If anyone would like to expand or comment on this maybe you could post a @@message in the main forum. Andre and I do NEED your feedback. I hope you are reading this Andre. Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned this yet, I know that Andre is already fully occupied with higher priority issues. It is written now so I will leave it - I would like the opinion's of other members anyway.
Tonight BlindxD posted a question which Alan answered. The question became interactive with Blindxd asking for clarification. Thank you BlindxD, this is what we want in the forum. Ask lots of questions and never 'pretend' to understand.
There were a number of fun and chatty posts today. I think that this is great. I do not want the forum to be too serious. The 'I like Turtles' post turned into a fun little thread and I also rather liked this thread.
That is it I think, Enjoy what is left of your Tuesday.

Good day/evening everyone,
Once again there have been a lot of questions and many great answers. These were delivered by CreeperCosmo, CPhill, Kitty<3, Bertie, SpawnofAngles, Alan, Samgelinas, reinout-g, Rom, BlindxD, DavidQD, novice and unknown (do you have amnesia?) Thankyou all, it is great that we have so many members answering questions. Of course some questions are also answered by non-members.
Almost all questions have been answered and I have looked at most of those answers. I have ticked most of them as finished. I do admit that not all of those have been thoroughly checked. I have always taken the postition that the question asker must accept some responsibility for what answers they accept and what they reject. If they are puzzled they should always ask for clarification.
The fumigation has not finished - there are still many bugs but the numbers are slowly diminishing. Thank you Andre. I have been told that the links I put in the wrap, and presumably other links, don't always work. Also sometimes our member page is displayed on the list of answers. Hopefully these and other problems will be fixed soon.
Oh, I have asked a number of times how people are including images, everyone is silent - I finally worked out that they are coming straight from the net. Has anyone managed to include pictures from their home computers yet? Can anyone fill me in better on inserting pictures PLEASE?
I have been answering questions most of the day and I am afraid they have run together and I haven't noted any in particular. There was a post though that I liked because it reminded me of how non-mathematicians really do feel (sometimes) when they are facing a mathematics problem. I thought it was relevant and amusing.
That is it for tonight, enjoy the rest of your Thursday.
Melody.
Hi everyone,
There were lots of great answers today from Gman2598, Alan, CPhill, Bertie, Kitty<3, novice, unknown and a number of anonymous people. Thank you very much.
I think all member questions and most anonymous questions have been answered. I have checked as many of those answers as possible and given a tick to almost all of them. I am starting to burn out.
There are just too many questions and there is too little time to just 'enjoy' the forum. I am not actually trying to answer any questions but I do want everyone else to get credit for what they do. I know some of you are looking at other's answers and some are giving thumbs up which is great. Maybe you could actually put a short post saying that you have checked it and it is alright - then I won't feel like I have to check and I won't feel guilty about giving a tick when I have not personally checked. This is just a thought.
Does anyone have any other ideas.
I have not responded to a number of messages. I appologise for this. It is partly because the message system is still not very good and partly because I am just to busy with the immediate needs of the forum.
Enjoy the rest of your Friday.
Melody.
Hi everyone,
It was a little quieter today. It is always quietest on Friday/Saturday's but there were still plenty of questions and Alan, CPhill and at least one anonymous person provided many great answers. Thanks guys.
Andre is slowly pulling the programming of the forum together. There are now many special characters that can be inserted. Plus, today I turned a thread into a sticky topic. This had never worked for me before. I was really pleased, because I was worried that this thread 'Information pages worth keeping or developing' and all the pages it refers to could become lost for all time. I have already made use of it.
Actually I am hoping that reinout uses this to make the puzzles easier to find. I am sure I had a reference thread for puzzles somewhere. We will have to find it.
Andre, you have never indicated whether you read this wrap but if you do there is still a problem with Alan's and my profile pages popping up in the 'Math Answers' pages. At present I am on the most recent page (856) and Alan is on page 855.
I am also very eager for the message system to work properly and I really want to be able to insert attachments from my computer. To the best of my knowledge the old attachments still do not display properly.
Still, the forum is slowly improving. Thank you Andre.
That is it for today. Enjoy what is left of your weekend.

Another busy day with lots of fantastic answers from Mathwizard91472, CPhill, Bioschip, garanceme, Alan, DavidQD, Bertie, and 1or 2 anonymous people. A big thank you to all of you.
There was only one unanswered question on the forum and I am sure Chris will have answered it by the time I finish this post. Andre, Chris has got his eye on the admin score on the 'Top Answerer' board, it shouldn't take him too long to over take! Then it will be my turn to worry. lol
There were also a couple of nice thank yous given today, all answerers really appreciate it when people show their gratitude.
I like this question today. It made me think. Chris and I both invite more comment.
This one also generated interest.
Chris has told me that sometimes these links don't work. There are still a lot of teething problems on the new forum. I think they usually work though. So good luck.

Another busy day! Lots of great answers by DavidQD, Alan, CPhill, Anonymousperson, Kitty<3, Fiyero, Creeperface2000 and Rom. Thank you all.
I wrote a letter to Andre Massow and have received a reply - I put these together and they are posted in the forum. Comments and suggestions are very welcome. This is the address. I have also included it with the 'Sticky Topics'
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/communications-with-andre-massow-with-reply_1
Kitty pulled together a few replies to 'How do I put fractions into the calculator' and put the addresses into 1 post. I thought this was good and included her reply in the Sticky Topic 'Information pages worth keeping or developing' It is on a new last post because I cannot edit the old pages. I presume this is because they were written in the old forum. It really needs to be done a little more neatly. I have suggested that Kitty does this but I don't know whether or not she will. I'd really appreciate it Kitty!

The frac command in the latex was not working properly which was all very irritating. These things are sent to try me/us.
Kitty<3 wrote a 'how do you do fractions on this calculator' post. She put it on the end of the 'Information pages worth keeping or developing' sticky thread. We may change its location but this is the address at present. Thanks Kitty. This is great.
This question from Stu has promoted interest. Alan is trying to show us how to insert an image, sounds complicated but I guess it is easy when you know how to do it.
These ones also promoted some interest.

Hi everyone,
Questions were once again in abundance. Great answers were given by Alan, Professor, CPhill, Creeperface, Bertie, BluePhoenix912, Anonymous4338, and Rom. Thank you all.
Some nice recognition was also offered from BluePhoenix912, Bioschip and an anonymous person. Thank you we all appreciate it.
I used Kitty<3's 'fraction on the calculator' post 3 times this morning. It made answering so much easier. I usually have more than one forum page open at any one time so that I can post in one and refer to or copy from the others. I just copied the whole page - not just the address. It worked a treat. If anyone wants to use it is located in the sticky thread "Information pages worth keeping or developing."
Gib thinks all children should own a walrus. And s/he worked out how to insert a picture before Chris or I did. This is the post. I think Gib's walrus was the ugliest one in the pet shop!

We also have an anonymous comedian, s/he has visited before I hope s/he visits often. The comedian's post along with Chris's interaction was very entertaining! I thought it was great!! Although it would have been even better without the profanity. Thanks to both of you.
Alan gave me a much needed lesson on using the Tiny Pic upload feature. I made my first upload on the new system. I also added the address to the sticky thread "Information pages worth keeping or developing. Here is a direct link for anyone in need.

I think when Andre (the site owner and developer) finally gets the members section working properly we will be astonished at how many new members we have. It is great to see that a number of these are also answering questions. We encourage everyone to answer. Obviously if you are unsure you should state this, but ultimately it is up to the question asker to decide to accept or reject an answer. I also encourage people, especially the mathematicians, to check answers, including each others, so most mistakes are detected.
If new people would like to introduce themselves to the forum in general, by way of a public post, I encourage you to do so. If you would like to introduce yourself to me privately you can do so via the forum message service or by an email to the address that I will include at the end of this wrap. I love getting mail and I am sure other members would also welcome your contact.
We passed our 10,000th question today! BluePhoenix912 bought this to my attention with this post.
Thanks BluePhoenix, but you might like to edit your post, you left out a 0!
I had some really good thread addresses on my 'information pages worth keeping or developing' sticky thread. Now most don't work. They are full of old downloads. I wanted to use my 'dealing with negative indices thread' and could not. NOT GOOD! I suppose I'll redo them if I ever get time.
I can't recall any other memorable posts. If you can think of something or some post please let me know with a message. Then i can edit this wrap or include the omitted content tomorrow.

Gib took exception to my post yesterday and demanded an apology. It is here - I hang my head in shame.
A question that I personally would like take another look at was;
Here are some of the problems that we are experiencing;
1) There seems to be a problems with the picture inserts. Sometimes they are there and sometimes they disappear. I think they are related to the ones in Hogwart's.
2) Inappropriate, profanity posts were a major problem today. I have to write another letter to Andre this weekend and I will ask him if there is some software he can implement to make this less of a concern.
3) Some of the posts could not be opened - they just went off to 'page not found' eg "_^2,*2^_"
4) Our profile pages are still appearing on the 'Answer' page.

Hi all,
Great answers today from DavidQD, Admin, CPhill, Rom, Gib, Bertie and of course some anonymous people. Thank you all.
We noe have an outbox so we can see the messages that we have sent. That's a nice step forward. Other asspects of the members section still need a lot of work. Not to worry, it is comming together slowly. Our top answer board has changed again. The numbers have had another boost. lol Andre has told me that it has 'bug' so I don't know what it will look like tomorrow.
I did send a quick message to Andre. I told him of Alans's observations concerning the member profiles appearing in the answer section. I also asked him if he could run some kind of language scanner through posts so that some of the vulgar ones could be deleted automatically. He hasn't replied yet.
We had an anonymous post signed "Lucifer van Pelt" this morning. It was a lot of fun. Take a look for yourself.

Our wonderfully impressive answers were posted by CPhill, Problem, Bertie, Alan, Kitty
I had real problems getting into this thread. I kept being told "File not found" I guess there is still quite a few ants at the picnic!
Another recurring complaint is that time stamps on out messages jump all over the "clock"
Andre has now installed a fraction calculator. There is a drop down menu in the top right corner of the calculator. There is a few different calculators available here.
My favourite post today was written by a guest calling himself "Reluctantly Modern Old Geezer" It was VERY funny! http://web2.0calc.com/questions/why-does-my-oldish-texas-instruments-not-have-a-prb-button
There were also some output discussion in a couple of different posts. The allowable matrix inputs are 'sloppy' and the equaton solution output puts an extra equal sign in the middle which, I think, is universally disliked by mathematicians. Here are the threads
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/if-3-4x-1-what-is-x_1#r103588

Great answers were today delivered by admin, BluePhoenix912, CPhill, Alan, Rom, Bertie, GoldenLeaf, reinout-g, Kitty3, bioschip, spetj200, some industrious anonymous people and definitly myself. Thank you every one.
Mathcalc also showed his appreciation. He always has great manners. Thank you mathcalc.
Reinout-g has spent time today finding and organising the puzzle posts. This is fabulous, I thought they may have been lost forever. They are the sticky topics with green emicons. I encourage everyone to join in when reinout or I (or anyone else) posts a puzzle or a challenge. Thank you reinout, your efforts are much appreciated.
We have a great many new members joining every day and you are all extremely welcome. I love it when I see new people joining in and becoming known. It is not important whether you get an answer completely correct so long as your intentions are good and you state any uncertainty that you may have. Today GoldenLeaf joined and answered a number of questions. I really like this post. It is very interesting.

There were a great many unpleasant post today. It is a good thing that they can now be deleted.
I am really pleased with how the forum is progressing. There are still quite a few bugs and some unfinished coding but it seems to me that almost every day some great new feature is introduced or an old feature has been improved. Thank you Andre. You are bringing it together nicely for us.
When we hover over a Math or LaTek input the coding now comes up in a box. This is great. Now we can learn how to use these by copying other people. Rom is our most competent LaTex coder. I started copying some of his more interesting code into the Latex page in the sticky notes. Unfortunately it disappeared and I'll have to do it again. My stupidity I think - not a forum error. If you add good coding when you answer a question please consider copying to the LaTex and Math Code thread. You can have your own post in there which you can add to as time progresses.
It has come to my attention that non-members can now upload pictures. This has pluses and minuses. Many of the posts that I deleted this morning were pictures. We have had very little of this type of problem in the past and it may be just a natural part of a growing forum. It is not a great cncern at present anyway.
My Wraps seem to be getting longer and longer. If anyone wants to comment on the content I will welcome your constructive comments. I want to know what people think!
Thank you everyone - I think we have a forum that we can be proud of.

Hello everyone,
It is midweek and the questions came in thick and fast. Some great answers were provided by GoldenLeaf,Foxtears, NothingLikeHmework, Rom, awesomeatmath, lebron, Alan, Bobtyford, CreeperCosmo, problem and reinout-g. Thank you everyone.
I think all the member questions have been answered. Not all answers have been checked and not all answerers have received the points to which I think they are entitled. I will put more effort into this tonight. Sorry. Sometimes there just is not enough hours in the day.
Many answerers put more effort into newer questions. This may be a little unfair but the logic is that if your question has been sitting there for a long time you may well have figured it out by some other means, so it may be less relevant. If your question has fallen off the first page you can repost if you want to. Remember, members will always get priority and it is simple and free to become a member.
Reinout-g updated our puzzle pages last night. Thankyou reinout-g. I noticed that CreeperCosmo has already answered 2 of the puzzles. This is great, I don't think that I have given you credit (and points) for them yet but I will.
Here is a difficult one that some people might be interested in;

I didn't do a wrap last night because access to the forum was denied to me. I was denied access for 24 hours there abouts.
Andre Massow, site owner and developer, has now found the cause and he sent me this message an hour or so ago.
"The problem is fixed. The reason for the error message was a programming mistake in my watchlist implementation. In your case the error appeared because you had a question in your watchlist which was delete later (by the question creator). The watchlist could not find the deleted question and crashed. "
Andre has temporarily deactivated this feature. I couldn't get the sticky topics to open either. Maybe he has deactivated these as well.
Thanks you Andre for finding and overcoming this problem for me.
There have been a lot of questions in the last 2 days and the following members provided great answers; Alan, reinout-g, CPhill, GoldenLeaf, DavidQD, FoxTears, Kitty<3, tfrancis15, all-them-marvel-feels and many anonymous people. Thank you all. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!
I do have more to say but the thread/s I wanted to share are 'locked' in a sticky topic and it is very late. 3:30am. I have a little more I want to do on the forum before I 'hit the sack', so that is enough for this wrap.
Thank you all for making this forum such a success.

It was a standard quiet Friday/Saturday. But, as always, there were some good answers. These were given by CPhill, Alan, GoldenLeaf and Capricious unicorn. Thank you all.
**If people are going to give an answer that comes from a calculator I would ask that the site calc by means of the [Math (Input=Result)] button is used. It makes it much easier for people to check that the calculation is in fact correct. Plus, once you get used to it is is easier than reaching for a different calculator.

Hi everyone,
CPhill and I rather monopolised the answering today - sorry. There were a few physics ones left for Alan and admin answered one, thank you. Never mind the week should start getting busy tomorrow and then there should be enough questions for everyone. Also, every day I see many new names. The member section is not finished yet so I can't see you all but I expect forum member and post numbers is growing very quickly.
To all those who have joined recently, welcome to web2.0calc forum. We hope you find the site helpful, interesting and fun.
There were some really nice thank you notes and thumbs up given today by RheyB, bioschip, tyeiyei and an anonymous person. Thank you, everyone likes to be appreciated!
One of our members Daniavm reported an error via a post. I forwarded the post address to admin along with some of my own observations. Daniavm’s problem should now be fixed.
My observations were mainly to do with the Android phone app. I had learned to do most things. The member section could only be accessed by the most convoluted, intriguing process imaginable. I was really proud of myself for solving the puzzle. Anyway, there is no puzzle any more. Andre Massow (site owner and developer) has ‘fixed’ it, what a pity. So, from most people’s point of view the app works much better now. Thank you Andre.
This was an interesting physics question and answer (I thought so anyway). Alan has provided all the formulas. Someone else should plug the numbers in and give us a concluding statement. http://web2.0calc.com/questions/stuck-on-problem_1#r105221
Chris added a new problem for us to ponder, it is on a new thread but I have referenced the thread in Puzzles, which is a sticky topic.
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/tricky-puzzle-problem-from-cphill-can-you-work-it-out

Lots of great answers today from reinout-g, heureka, zegroes, CPhill, Alan, winnie and SpawnofAngel. Thank you so much. I'd especially like to thank Chris (CPhill). Chris has been answering questions all day long. He does this regularly without complaint and I really appreciate it. There is not any appreciation expressed my most of the question askers, that is true, but there are a few who express their gratitude and they make a big difference to the moral of the answerers. Today 3 of these people were AngelAmy, zegroes and chilledz3non. We thank you very much.
Reinout-g has been looking after our brain teasers and puzzles. Notification of new ones are posted on the forum but they can always be found in with the sticky topics in the bottom right corner of the screen. There are some great puzzles in there - take a look. Thank you reinout for looking after the puzzles they are an important aspect of the forum! If other people would like to post puzzles you are free to do so. If they are good I will give them a green puzzle icon and reference them in one of the puzzle threads.
Reinout also worked out how the individual post are referenced. I might keep this till another time, there are a few more specifics that I want to work out. Again, thank you reinout.
Once again heureka has presented some great answers with very impressive LaTex. Thank you heureka!

I guess we'll just have to cope the best we can, remembering always that members get priority. There were a smattering of very old posts appearing on the forum today.

Our message centre has been redesigned from scratch. There are some features that are not properly implemented yet but some of the new ones will be really good.
We can now view our messages from oldest to newest or vice versa. Received messages and sent messages are now together in a converstion view (they are when you go into send message view anyway). Sent messages are left justified and received messages are right justified. Plus sent messages can be edited or deleted right up until they are read by the recipient. I used to love this feature (it was in the previous version of the forum) We cannot delete our messages at present but I am sure we will be able to soon. A message export system is now being developed and should be up and running in a week or two. The feature for choosing a member from a list definitely needs improvement but I think Andre Massow is repairing features and introducing new features in extremely good time. I commend him on his efforts and the results he has achieved! Thank you Andre!
There are a great many questions. Primary answerers are having a tough time getting through them all but we do do our best. I have always encouraged people to get involved and post answers were they are able. Unfortunately there are some people posting who do not have the knowledge base that they need to answer the question properly. These answers can be very misleading to the question asker which is definitely not good. They can also be time wasting for primary answerers. If you are one of these over-confident people who is posting answers outside your knowledge base please STOP! (I may start deleting point for wrong answers given by repeat offenders) If you lack confidence but you really believe you can help I do not want to discourage you. There have been some fantastic answers from casual answerers, today and everyday.
Here are just a couple of todays posts. I don't remember any really standing out.

Hi Everyone,
Today was a quiet Saturday/Sunday. It's nice to have a quiet day occasionally. Still there were some excellent answers given by Alan, reinout-g, CPhill and Bertie. Thank you.
I would like to introduce you to Rosala. Rosala has only been a member for a few days and she has already greatly impressed me. Rosala asks good questions, she is quick to say thank you, and gives 'thumbs up' generously on her own questions and also on other people's questions. She also answers questions well when she has the knowledge. Rosala is also very prepared to ask for clarification and to say when she does not understand. This is very important and something not many question askers really do. She may be a very important role model for others to follow!
Now that I have told you why Rosala has impressed me, I'd like to tell you a little about who she is. She is a 13 year old girl from Delhi, India. I don't know that we have any other regular members from India. She is very proud of her excellent Engish, it is her favourite subject. She said 'we' are lucky because we come from counties where girls can do anything. There are much less opportunities for girls in India.
Thank you Rosala and welcome to web2.0calc forum. I hope that you continue to learn lots and enjoy this site!
(Incidentally, I did ask Rosala if it would be alright before I repeated all this on the forum.)
##Here are a few posts that may be of interest to people.
This one demonstrates Rosala's great attitude.
(Note: Rosala did not give herself 5 points - they came from other people)

Andre Massow is feeling healthier and is back looking after us again. He has dealt with the hacking problem that occured a few days ago. The hacker only introduced superficial code via the forum. The system's security was never compromised. The whole incident has been 'put to bed'.
Andre has also introduced auto resizing so when large pictures are uploaded they are automatically resized to fit properly. And, he has also provided us with a button so that we can delete private messages if we wish to.
Thank you Andre. These are nice improvements to the forum.

I thought that this comment by TreefAM was interestin. TreefAM appears to have had a problem posting anonymously. Maybe that is a part of the reason that so many new people are joining."Oh sorry it was 2^(x/2), had to make an acount because i wasn't able do to the spamm security thing."
I also want to remind everyone. If you are happy with your answer post a thank you and give a thumbs up. If you are not happy say so and ask for clarification.

Yesterday a few people told me how much they liked my 'End of Day Wraps' and how much they appreciated all the effort that I put into the forum. Thank you so much. I put more hours in here than many people put into a full time job. I do it because I love teaching and I really enjoy all the camaraderie of the forum but this certainly does not mean that I appreciate your gracious compliments any less. (Incidently, I think Chris (CPhill) spends as much time here as I do, his contibution is immeasurable.) It is a team of people who make this forum work so well.

heh your announcing people that just joined now??? i remember when i first joined......where's my red carpet?
Yes, I know Zegroes - No one gave me a red carpet either - and I am still crying. See!
Actually the member section is not adequate to see the new members - it doesn't even bring up many of the old members! I think we have more than 10 new members every day, maybe a lot more. The only ones I catch are the new answerers. If someone answers a questions and I don't recognise their name then I look at their profile. If they are new then I welcome them. It is extremely hit and miss. When admin gets the member section working properly we need to organise something better. Maybe an automated welcome or maybe put someone in particular in charge of a welcoming committee.

Narsin and Sportslover have join since my last wrap. Zegroes and Rosala seemed to think they are also entitled to a formal welcome. So this is for all 4 of you. Welcome to web2.0calc forum. We hope that you learn lots and that you like it here.
I didn't notice a lot of particularly interesting threads this time, maybe I wasn't looking hard enough.
I thought that this one was interesting and important for a couple of different reasons.
Please take note of what Bertie and I have said. It is important that you are interactive with your learning. Answerers do not want to feel like they are just doing someone's homework and that the only thing that the asker cares about is the answer! We want to help people learn!
I am sorry notsomathpro. Our comments were not aimed at you in particular, I am sorry that you were the one in the firing line.
The question itself is also very thought provoking. I hope i get around to looking at this question from 'behind the scenes'
------------------------------------------------
You know, I was only gone 1 night and you kids think you can just move into my wrap thread and make yourselves at home. And why is it that you are giving each other lots of points when my wraps never get any points. I should go on strike!
People have been asking where I was last night. I was at 'Vivid' which is an amazing light show in Sydney where moving picture lights are projected onto many of the buildings around our harbour. (I don't think that i said that very well)
It was a rainy day which meant that the crowd numbers were way down, for a while our luck held out and the weather was good. Then it teamed and we were drowned. The tadpoles in my pockets were the only really happy ones. Not to worry. It was all pretty amazing. The best displays were snakes slithering across our museum of contempory art, and schools of fish swimming across the opera house sails, followed by a shark and some stingrays. it was really cool!
Here are some pictures but they are never anywhere near as good as the real thing. Rosala in particular wanted me to explain. The scenes i described are not depicted here. It must be different each night.

Hi everyone,
Thank you Rosala, Zegroes and Reinout-g. I really appreciate your and everyones support. It means more to me than you will ever know. I also seemed to have ended up with quite a few 'wrap' points. Thank you so much.
Rosala wanted to know how the light were projected on the buidings that I was talking about last night. They were laser lights and they were projected from large boxes, maybe 2.5metres cubed, that were unobtrusively placed behind the onlookers. One of the very large buidings had a platform in front of its box and individuals were invited up to 'conduct' the lights. The lights changed quite dramatically depending on their movements. They could also play table tennis with laser light b***s etc. a bit like how you can interact using an xbox.

I really have to modify the way I care for this forum. I have spent many hours just checking everything is answered and collecting all the names. Once all the questions are answered to my satisfaction/capability collecting the names is easy enough, it is the answer checking and tidying that takes an enormous amount of time. I also collect threads for this wrap as I go. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could do it differently or how someone else may be able to help?

There is a sticky thread called “Information worth keeping or Developing.”
I refer to it most days. It is full of addresses of threads that can be used over and over again.
It is not well organised and some of the older posts have info that will no longer display properly but it would be worthwhile for answerers to familiarise themselves with the newer posts. I write a little description above each reference address. You are encouraged to add your own post on the end. Once you have one post you can usually edit it to include new addresses. You do not need to make a new post every time.
Today I added two address.

Click on that and you will be transferred to the German site. That is where Radix hangs out. You will be logged out but you can log into the German site or you can came back here and log on again. Of course you can visit the other language sites as well. I used to post occasionally on the other sites but it is too busy here now.

Not much excitement today. Some one tried to abuse the site by posting 14 'assignment' questions but members soon ignored them, which seemed to be accepted as the correct response.
It came to my attention today that some people do not know how to copy and paste web addresses so I prepared this. The address is stored in the sticky thread called "information pages worth keeping or developing." Maybe one of you can do a better job. Mine is only good for windows operating systems.

Rhino also posted a great puzzle. It is a recurring one but a really good one. I have given it the green puzzle icon and added it to the sticky note 'Puzzles'. Thank you Rhino.
I almost forgot. Reinout-g has put a repetitive and recursive curse on CPhill. He can adjust the pain levels as he sees fit. Of course CPhill does deserve it. Headless and now cursed. Some knights are brave but not so smart!
In the last day or so there has been some rudeness aimed at answerers. Sometimes this is verbal other times it is in the guise of subtracting points even though the answer is not incorrect. I do not think this should be tolerated. It is my position that core members should back any answerer who has reason to feel s/he has been treated rudely. An apology should be sought and if it is not forthcoming future questions should be whitened out or not answered. The question asker has three basic choices:
1) Apologise (and return points) and it is over.
2) Leave the forum altogether.
3) Rebirth with a new username. (If they do this then it would usually be an indication that they know they have crossed a line and they are likely to behave better second time around)
I can not do these things alone. If you think this is a reasonable policy then I need your help to enforce it. Let me know what you think.

Hi Everyone,
Great answers today from CPhill, reinout-g, Rosala, zegroes, Alan, Will85237, and Bertie.
Will85237 joined a couple of days ago. Welcome to Web2.0calc forum. We hope that you enjoy yourself here.
NinjaDevo made his way onto the "Top Answerers" board today. CONGRATULATION NINJADEVO. I had not realised that you had answered so many questions, (Ninja's are supposed to be stealthy) But, I have been very impressed with the quality of your answers Ninja. Thank you.
There have been a number of questions lately which are ambiguous or simply do not make sense. At Alan's suggestion I have posted a note question askers, requesting them to be careful about this and also giving hints to appropriate forum conduct. This is it.
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/important-note-for-question-askers
Here are some questions that may be of interest.
I haven't had a chance to look at either of these 2 questions yet
but I like probability

Good Evening all, some of you live in slow places and the sun has not yet set, but I assure you, a good evening awaits.
It was a quiet day today. I am definitely not complaining! Bring on more days like this so that I can catch my breath!
There were still lots of good answers delivered by reinout-g, NinjaDevo, Will85237, Alan, Rosala, CPhill, Bertie and Bahamo. Thanks guys, you are all much appreciated.
Bahamo is new. Welcome to web2.0calc forum. We hope you learn a lot and enjoy yourself here.
I spent a little time this evening cleaning up Sticky Notes. They are a little improved but this area definitely need more time spent on it. Some of the content is from the old forum and does not display properly. Some content needs to be deleted or updated. I did 'unstick' a couple of obsolete posts and I amalgamated a couple more but there is still much to do. Andre was 'threatening' to reduce the number of sticky topics possible. I do not like this idea but he is right, they do need to be tended properly.
Yesterday I was asked to put together a note to new question askers requesting that they be very careful about the presentation of their questions. I did that, maybe it was in my wrap yesterday, I don't remember. Anyway, I was then asked if something like this could be permanently 'stuck' to the top of the posted questions. I do not have the power to do this but I think it should go into my next letter to Andre Massow (site owner and developer) Does everyone think that this is a good idea? Can anyone offer more input. Would someone other than me like to write it? I have put up a first draft (on the forum)but I also found an old similar post in the ignored sticky topics. In some ways the old one is better than the new. They need to be amalgamated and tidied up.
I have started a sticky note information thread for new people. (It is just a start)
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/information-for-new-people
I also want to remind people of the Sticky Topic "Information Pages worth Keeping and Developing". Once again this thread needs some loving care but I add to it regularly, and I use references from it even more regularly. I think it would be beneficial if answerers familiarise themselves with its content.
These are some of the interesting post from today.
What is the value of pi
I have added this one's address to the sticky topic "Information pages worth keeping or developing"
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/what-is-the-value-of-pi
This might interest some people
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/cot-sin-1-2-3
I liked this one - a great answer from an anonymous person.
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/how-do-you-do-volume
I do believe that is it for today. Enjoy your weekend.
Melody.
I just looked at the sticky topic "Information pages worth keeping or developing," and I can agree that it could use some cleaning up.
A sugestion I have for this is maybe we should just have one huge post containing all this information, and the author (most likely you, Melody) could just "edit" the post when more information is wanted to be added.
Also, maybe a good way to organize this is by "grade levels" of mathematics, if you will. Looking something like this:
Algebra:
-link(s)
Geometry:
-link(s)
Triganometry:
-link(s)
Probability:
-link(s)
Misc. pages:
-link(s)
...and you get the idea
That way, when someone is refering back to the sticky about say, solving inequalities, they can just go under algebra, and go directly to that link, without looking through the whole page of reposts and stuff.
The only problem with this is that there might be a limit to how much text can go in a single forum post. If this problem arises, maybe the creator of the site could allow an option for a no-max charcter count for only mods when posting something.
Also, tell the creator of the site (Andrew, I believe?) that I appriciate his work on the site, it's really made well.
Finally, thanks to your dedication to this site, Melody, without your and dedication, the site would not run as it is running!
I would also like to echo ND's thoughts....thanks to Melody for all she does on here.....
I'm still getting "phantom messages," as well.......maybe they're from a "ghost" poster.....!!! Who knows ???
I like ND's idea about classifying the posts according to grade level or topic......I don't know if the site mods would be responsible for "moving" the topics to appropriate areas (yuck, another "task"), or whether the site could include a "menu" for the questioners in which they could choose to post where they thought most appropriate. (Maybe we could include a "miscellaneous" category if a questioner were uncertain!!).
Those are my thoughts......but, I might have more as they occur to me !!!
Thank you Ninja and Chris. I have just copied your posts over into the main body of the forum.
I'd like to continue this discussion there.

To Hank1668 and Strider. Welcome to Web2.0calc forum. We hope that you both learn a lot and enjoy yourselves here.
There was some discussion of forum issues after my wrap last night. I copied the posts over to the forum and the discussion was continued there.
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/forum-problems-please-comment-saturday-14-6-14
It occured to me today that one of the things I always wanted for this forum was a 'club like' atmosphere. I was thinking that with the ability to post without becoming a member first that this may never happen. However, I am really pleased because I think that the forum may be headed that way now. We have a number of core users of all different ages and abilities. You are all lovely people. I have a great deal of time for each and every one of you. You are starting to communicate with each other on the forum in a very constructive and friendly way. I am really pleased that the forum is starting in this direction!
This forum is very young. I compare it to a young river gouging its way through mountains and valleys. It is intriguing to watch it grow and mature.
Here are some other interesting post for the day.
Vectors and complex numbers.
Ratios - lengths, SA and Volume. I like questions like this one.

I greatly appreciate your show of interest in my evening wraps. It used to be quite lonely in here because i wasn't really sure if anyone was actually reading what I wrote. However, I would like it if you would show your appreciation for my wraps in the lantern thread that I put out each night after I write the wrap. Do you know where I mean? This 'wrap' thread should just be for the wrap and for posts that are directly related. For instance Ninja wrote a post saying that he had done what I had requested. Or, when I missed one night I didn't mind Zegroes commenting that there was something missing. I want all the posts in here to be constructive and directly relevant.

As many of you know, NinjaDevo has made an improved version of our Sticky Thread "Information Pages worth Keeping or Developing" The presentation looks fabulous. Ninja says he has included (almost) all the information that was in the old one. I have been intending to check it out properly but I can see the only way that is going to happen is if I put it up properly for people to use. Ninja has included the address of the old version on the first page so if anything is missing it can still be easily found. I used the old version of this thread quite heavily. I don't know if other people did or not. I really encourage you to see what is there and to make full use of it. If you want to add your own information/comment page that is encouraged (you only need one, you can edit it if you want to add things) Please respect the fact that it is a serious thread and treat it with respect. Thank you very much Ninja for doing this for us!

Communications with Andre Massow. (Site Owner and Developer)
On the 16th June I sent an email that listed a number of items that I asked Andre to consider, improve, or implement. Today I received a response:
# There was an error in the message centre. The inbox items were displaying properly but the outbox was displaying the incoming messages not the outgoing ones. Anyway, Andre has now fixed this problem.
# Andre has introduced a reply button on incoming messages. I have already used this, it works well.
# Messages can now be viewed from oldest to newest or newest to oldest.
# Andre has introduced an Export Button. There is a “save disk” icon at the top of each conversation. It exports in Microsoft Excel file format. I have used this, it definitely works. It appears to export so that the newest message is on the top no matter which way around the messages are displayed. The layout appears to be a little confusing if the messages are long. I’m sure that I will work it out quickly enough.
# Andre has introduced a new “To” input field in the compose message section. Before, there was just a drop down box but now you have to input something. If you input “tr” all the usernames containing “tr” anywhere in them are brought up. I entered R and no username that actually began with R was bought up – Maybe only the first 25 possibilities appear. I don’t know. It is a bit of a mystery at the moment.
# There are a few other issues that Andre is still considering.
# I just discovered that if you go into any person’s profile, there is a new button underneath the avatar. It says “All Profiles”, if you click into here you will find a comprehensive list of members. It is in alphabetical order and it gives joining date as well as number of questions asked and answered. I asked Andre for something like this but he did say that he had done it in his letter. So finding this was a nice surprise.

There is not much to report today. One nice little thing is that each day I notice the little improvements that Andre is still doing to the forum. For instance;
(1) The messages are displaying better. Line breaks are being included properly.
(2) The attention icons in the body of the forum are displaying in the right place. For a while they were not.
That is all I can remember at the moment. There are probably a lot of other little things as well, I am not a very observant person. Thank you for all the improvements Andre. ♬

Hi Everyone,
I am sorry it has been a couple of days since it wrote the last wrap. I am really not up to where I would like to be for this one but that does mean that there are more questions available for those people who are here. There is always a bright side!
Anyway I great answers have been provided by Jboy314, GoldenLeaf, CPhill, NinjaDevo, Alan, Heureka, Rosala, Zegroes, Snip3s, DragonSlayer554, admin, Kitty<3, Rose98, Quazars, SevenUp, Will8523. Thank you, you are all wonderful.
I would like to request that when serious questions are asked and people are trying to provide serious answers that the distracting non-related posts be put elsewhere. It can be very difficult to think a difficult problem through if the thread is full of distractions. I am not saying you can't have a related joke but please keep it to a minimum. Here is one such thread. It most certainly is not the only one.

It was just mentioned to me that it is now Saturday, or Sunday for all of you and the forum is filled with young people who are having fun and learning at the same time. What a great bunch of 'kids' you are. What we now have is what I always wanted for this forum. It is a club environement. All the core members both young and old are participating and learning together. This makes me very happy. Thank you everyone!
I would really like some feedback about the interest posts. Ninja has given positive feedback. He may put some of them together into a new Sticky Topic thread. So if you just want some good quality posts on a semi-specific topic you will be able to find them there.

I really was not impressed with this thread this morning. A new member, Mari379, asked a serious question.
Rosala welcomed her to the forum, that was nice, thank you Rosala.
Then Zegroes, Rosala and DragonSlayer turned the thread into a fun post. Yes it was funny, that is why I didn't just white it out but by the time sevenUP answered the actual question. The serious answer was lost amongst the sea of humour. A couple of hours later, Mari reposted and CPhill anwered. She should have been able to see her answer in the first place. You should all be a just a little bit ashamed of yourselves.

Hi everyone,
It was not that busy today but there were some great answers delivered by Rosala, alan, CPhill, Zegroes, Kitty<3, Heureka, Stu, AzizHusain and DeviikaAnand. Thank you all.
AzizHusain and DevikaAnand are new. Welcome to our web2.0calc forum. We hope that you like it here.
I thought I would talk a little about the numbering system on threads.
A thread title is allocated when the original question is asked. The first answer post has #1 written after the name. The second answer post is #2, the third is #3 etc. At least I think that is correct. Anyway if you want to refer someone to a particular post, rather than the whole thread, just click on the title of the post that you want. The address in your browser will renew, giving the address of the post. You can copy that address and post it as your reference address. I think that is all correct. I hope I have used all the correct terminology.
Today mari379 asked "How do you get points" Here I have explained my attitude to the allocation of points. CPhill and Zegroes and Rosala have also voiced opinions.
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/how-do-you-get-points
If anyone would ever like to recommend a good post to include in this "End of Day Wrap" could you please send it to me via private message. The forum is not very busy now while most of the US schools are closed for their summer break but even so I often just tick off posts without really looking at them. I could easily miss outstanding posts so please let me know if you see any really interesting or impressive ones. When the forum gets busy again this will become totally necessary for the proper running of the forum. I may provide a thread for you to place the addresses in. But for now private messaging will work fine. Thank you.
Now for some interesting posts:
1) Here Alan has employed the Taylor Series to evaluate a limit (actually, to find a derivative)
Thanks Alan and thank you Chris for recommending this thread.

Ninja has completed his first draft of 'Great Answers to Learn From' and he is looking for comments and input from other members.
You may want to suggest that another thread be included.
You may want to suggest that a thread be moved from where Ninja has put it to somewhere else. Remember, Ninja has not done a lot of these topics so it is possible that some things are not in the best places.
You may have something else on your mind that I have not thought of.
I am very pleased with the thread that Ninja has put together. It is very nicely presented and over the course of time I feel sure that it will be well used.

Todays questions were answered by DragonSlayer554, CPhill, AziaHusain and as always, myself. Thank you
Today was extremely quiet, most of the young people are away on holidays. DragonSlayer554 has been making large numbers of posts, often posting on the end of old threads for the sole purpose of boosting his point total. I have spoken to him about this (again) and he has promised to stop. Someone/s has taken a strong dislike to this and has been indiscriminantly deducting points from DragonSlayer. I want it to be known that I do not in any way agree with the indiscriminate removal of points.
This was the only interest post - It was posted immediately after I wrote my wrap last night.

Hi everyone,
Another good day with some excellent answers from CPhill, Alan, admin, Stu, Rosala, AzizHusain, and Will85237. Thank you all.
The King was back from the Crusades today. He honoured us with his presence and it seems there are to be big changes in the land of Camelot.
Okay, Now I will talk in English. Mr. Massow, owner and developer of web2.0calc.com made some changes to the forum today.
He has introduced topic coding on the threads. The code will be chosen by the moderators. I think it needs some refinement but I really like the idea.
Also the look of the Questions page has changed. The answerers (and partial answers) are not displaying as they were before. I am not so keen on this.
The scores were also being played with today. They were changed then returned to their former status a couple of times today. I think it is fair to assume that a permanent change is in the air. I have not spoken to Mr. Massow about the scoring system at all but I am in agreement that the present system is not particularly good.
It may be a good idea for social posters to brace themselves. I think everyone scores are likely to be slashed but social posters will be hit the hardest. Hopefully we will all be able to live with the adjustments when they come. I would expect some tinkering of scores to happen even after this but as I said, I have not spoken to Mr Massow and I do not know what his intentions really are. Please when this happens do not take it personally. You are here because you enjoy the forum. The points that you are given should be a very secondary pleasure.

Hello all,
Well I am back! I have travelled 2000km (by car) in the last 5 days and attended a wedding. How about that!
I have been really lucky to have DragonSlayer (the Defender), and Bumblebee (The Queens eyes and ears) caring for camelot while I have been away. Thank you, you have done an excellent job. Thanks also to Chris and Alan, Aziz and Rosala, Ninja, Kitty and Zegroes. Plus anyone else who has helped. I really do not know who has been answering all the questions while I have been preoccupied. I've been on the forum for many hours this afternoon but I did not get very far I am sorry.
Also, now that Mr. Massow has changed the layout it is more difficult for me to collect all the answerer names.
Anyway, I will do the best I can.
If anyone writes or sees an excellent answer or post could you please let me know so that I can ask Ninja to include it in one of his threads.
Ninja, are you about. I don't remember stumbling over any of your posts recently? There are a couple of threads here I would like you to archive.
Here are a couple of threads that I put aside. I am sure there are many others. I have not seen a lot of the posts, again I am sorry.

I am proud of it and proud of all of you.

Hello all,
Lots of great answers have been posted by Alan, AzizHusain, Kitty<3, CPhill, NinjaDevo, Rosala, Latino_King, Sasini, Dragonslayer554. Thanks all.
If you would like to reference a particular post within a thread the address is linked to the "post date" on the top right hand side of the post. If you click on this, the address in the address bar will change to the address of this particular post. You can then copy it and paste it as your reference address.
Moderators now have the ability to categorise questions.
At present the categories are Fun, Mathematics, Off Topic and Physics.
Mathematics is then split into many sub categories.
The idea is great but the topic headings do not work well. I think if we can put together a categories list that will work for us, Mr Massow would be happy to consider it.
I am requesting that answerers give this some thought. I think I will start a new Sticky Topic thread where you can post your ideas. You can also private message me if you would prefer.
I have only collected 2 interest posts.
1) Lets end the day with a laugh - Thanks Rosala

Hello all,
Our great answers today were delivered by TakahiroMaeda, AzizHusain, CPhill, DragonSlayer554, Heureka, NinjaDevo and Admin. Thank you all.
I have definitely not looked at all the questions and answers today. The forum is getting too popular for that to be possible on many days. However, almost all questions have been ticked and this can only be done by moderators or the question asker. So I am assuming most answers are satisfactory or better.
Please if you see a great question, or answer or you write a wonderful answer yourself please let me know and I will reference it in the wrap and Ninja may reference it in one of his fabulous threads. I want to know what is going on but I will be increasingly relying on other people to keep me informed.
Chris, you have ticked off many questions today. I really thank you for steadily taking over this area of administration and responsibility.

Hi everyone,
Lots of great answers today from Cphill, TakahiroMaeda, Alan, AzizHusain, DragonSlayer554, Rosala, Therealquestioner, zoomasd, HalleyWoodall17, Kitty
Therealquestioner, zoomasd and halleywoodall are all faily new. A big welcome to each of you, I hope that you enjoy our web2 forum and that you learn a lot as well.
We are starting to get swamped in questions but even so I want to remind people that we are trying to help people to learn. Just giving answers is sometimes the opposite of this because the asker does not have to think at all. Please do not give full answers if there is a reasonable alternative. For instance, if a calc answer is requested, tell them that the web 2 calc can be found on the home page. You can tell them what keys to press but don't actually do it for them. This is defeating the whole purpose.
Another worthwhile response might be to suggest someone googles an answer.
Another might be to send them off to a learning site like a "mathsisfun" page or a video clip where they can learn more from other resources.
Now for some interest posts:
* 1) I thought this quadratic equation was just a little different from usual
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/x-7sqrt-x-10-0
* 2) Finding a root of a negative number.

* 5) Anyone fancy some physics?
I am sorry, I should have included other people's physics answers in the past. I don't usually understand it. That is my excuse and my apology in one.

* 6) logs - 2 differerent approaches

Thank you, I am really pleased, I am sure that we all want our answers to promote maximum learnning.
The sticky threads "Great answers to Learn from" and "Reference Material" were beautifully put together and kept updated by NinjaDevo. This has been a huge benefit to me and to everyone who uses the forum.
Unfortunately for us Ninja has now resigned from this job. School will be starting again for him next week and he will be to busy for this extra responsibility.

I ma really pleased to see that the type of answers that are being provided have changed a little. There have been less full answers and more help to get started. This includes being sent to other web sites to learn things. There are many great free sites available and we should make use of them at every oportunity.

I am really pleased that external sources are being used more by answerers. I would think that Aziz is our top answerer at the present time and he is refering people to many other sites. He used this one it to demonstrate one-to-one and onto functions. Thanks Aziz.
http://www.regentsprep.org/Regents/math/algtrig/ATP5/OntoFunctions.htm
I know the forum is really busy at the moment and to make answers longer than necessary may make it impossible to get through all the questions. However,
a) Sometimes it would be good to give instructions on how to highlight web addresses, right click and choose the goto that is desired. We are dealing with children and they do not always know how to do this.
b) Tell people that the web2 calc is on the home page.
I am sure there are other little instructions like these that could be very useful.
Perhaps once in a while a stand alone post of this nature could be put on the forum rather than stating it over and over in posts. Would anyone like to do this for us sometimes? It would not be a big job.

This is not a very good wrap - it doesn't even have any credits. Sorry, all of our answerers should know that you are wonderful.
I guess it is more of a place marker. The last couple of pages of questions have been covered properly but there are a lot of unanswered questions on the pages before that. Most answers have been given credit but not all, I am sorry I will try to get back to them if i can.

Good'ay mates,
I Just thought I would go all Aussie for a moment.
Today our great answerers were AzizHusain, Rosala, Alan, Lola200, CPhill, NinjaDevo,DragonSlayer554, AbdullahAlMohit, Honga, Heureka, and Kitty
I am very pleased that Admin has reinstated our FUN category. Thanks Admin.
Now for a couple of post that may have some interest. I really didn't see a lot today. I probably missed them because it is becoming very rushed around here.
1) This one provided some humour and it is very comforting for your queen to know that her kingdom is so fiercely defended.
2) I've only given this a short answer but some of our middle level people may like to take a look.
That is it for my Monday. So good'ay to you all.

I thought that was nice so I have included this new member too. Anyway we are very pleased that you have all joined us and we hope that all your experiences here are really good ones.
Now for some interest posts. I pulled out quite a few today.

Our fabulous answerers today were amoonstar, CPhill, Alan, NinjaDevo, Namodesto, Im_NotoriouszZz, Honga, Heureka, TakahiroMaeda, Randa, Leelee, milkshake, Alycat, mathrocks and Kitty
Our numbers are growing exponentially with respect to time. Our newest answerers are Alycat, mathrocks, Namodesto, Im_NotoriouszZz, Randa, Leelee, and I think amoonstar. We welcome you to our Web2 maths forum. We have an awsome time here and now you can too.
I only pulled out 1 post. The forum is just too busy for the answerers to fully enjoy all the questions that come in. I am sure there are some great questions and answers that come in but i don't see them. if you see a good one please let me know. You can PM it if you want to. That would be great. Anyway here is the lonely one that I put aside:
*1) limits (Thanks Alan)

A good day to you all,
Today our wonderful answers were provided by DragonSlayer554, Reinout-g, CPhill, Honga, Alan, Leelee, Kitty<3, Zoomasd123, Heureka and NinjaDevo. A great bid thank you to each of you.
I have been on the site for much of today but I have not even attempted to answer every question. I have however looked at your answers and given points when appropriate. Even this may soon become too much and I do not think that all the points really get added to your totals anyway. But for now this is what I am going to try and do. The upside is that there should always be some unanswered questions around if you want to answer some. I already try to leave some simpler questions around for our "rat pack" to answer anyway.
Now for a few interest posts:
1) Dragon's wrap and a lesson on time zones.

Hi all,
It was a quiet day today. As always there were great answers from Alan, CPhill, radio and Adrienne. Thanks you all.
CPhill often produces great mathematics answers but he also has a skill which I am sadly lacking.
He is a forensic mathematician. He can read between the lines and work out what the intended question is.
I sometimes get stuborn and answer the question asked because I want people to learn to present their questions properly. They can always repost with their intended question.
But even though this is sometimes true I am really not gifted at fathoming what an intended question is. So with this one I really did not 'see' what the intended question was. On re-reading the question I can see that I was at fault this time. I needed to spend more time thinking about the actual wording of the question.
Chris read it properly and answered the intended question. Sometimes the logic is more obscure than this, Chris really is quite gifted at reading between the mathematical lines. It is an admirable gift. Thank you Chris.

There were many great answers from Alan, CPhill, Geno3141, Robtre, Robert, LancelotLink, TakahiroMaeda, Kitty<3 and last but definitely not least Reinout-g. Thanks all.
It was really busy today. Perhaps the busiest Sun/Mon that we have ever had. I find busy days frustrating because I do not have a chance to answer questions like I want to or to learn from other people's questions and answers. Still it is usually better to be too busy than to be not busy enough.
I put aside a great many posts today. Most of them I have not even looked at properly, but they all look interesting all the same. We also had a couple visits from LancelotLink. He was behaving himself relatively well. He made a couple of hilarious posts.

Fabulous answers were provided by Heureka, BrittanyJ, Geno3141, happy7, Tiddle, Spiritwolf, AzizHusain, Shaniab29544, saseflower, sgordon1234, xXSwagMasterXx, ilybubbles, Mathematician, DaMaster and JonesDaBoi. A great big thank you to each of you.
CPhill, we no longer have a 'rat pack' we now have a 'wolf pack' and a the leader of the pack, at present, is SPIRITWOLF. It is good for the forum to have its own pack of wolves.
I am quite sure that there were lots of great questions and answers today but I was too busy ticking off answers to really notice sorry. I only collected two.
1) The wolf pack had a 'poetry fight' this morning
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/poetry-fight-trust-me-i-m-evil
2) I liked Geno's answer here. Thanks Geno

Hi all,
Another very busy day on the forum. But lots of great answers from Heureka, Mathematician, CPhill, Geno3141, happy7, BrittanyJ, Tiddle, DaMaster, QueenGreen and Roxy5306. Thanks all.
I feel a bit guilty about the inerest posts because I know my answers are over represented. But I just don't have time to look at all questions and answers properly. I really woud like you to message me is you see your own ro someone else's notworthy question or answer.
Here is a few interest posts:
1) The second indice question was a good one Thanks Melody and Geno

2) These trig ones often create confusion
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/what-will-be-the-value-of-cot-sin-inverse-1-3
3) I always like it when I see Chris playing with the kids. Although I suspect that Brittany is more of a young lady than a child.
4) I liked this scientific notation question. We were not being asked just to DO a question. There was a proper 'trying to understand' question behind it. Thanks anon.
5) Review of complex numbers cartesian to palar co-ordinants.
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/how-to-do-complex-calculation_1
6) Factorising quadratics where the leading coefficient is not 1

Hi everyone,
Today was probably the busiest Saturday that we have ever had. The forum is growing exponentially.
Anyway there were lots of great answers provided by Alan, CPhill, Geno3141, BabaLlama, SelenaPubblT, Mathematician, Heureka, and Happy7. Thank you, you are all great.
There were many questions that did not get answered properly today - many but not of them were probablility. I collected the address and put them in this thread. ( I appologise if there is any doubling up)
Now for some interest posts:
1) I liked this little physics question. Thanks Alan

Hello everybody,
It was a beautifully quiet day today. It was a great opportunity for the answerers to take a breather.
I only remember seeing answers by CPhill and geno3141. Thanks guys.
Thanks for answering the left over questions from yesterday too:)
I would really like this forum to be a 'teaching site' not an 'answer site'.
Too often people are being supplied with full answers. I am also guity of this. When the forum gets very busy it is often easier just to give answers (even with working) than it is to offer something different.
There are times when giving full answers is totally appropriate but sometimes there a better options.
There are many wonderful teaching resources available on the net. If we bring the asker together with one or more of these resources this will often result in the best learning. Partial answers and 'hints' can also be very appropriate. The asker is always encouraged to ask for clarification or for further help. All answerers really like it when the askers (or other people) interact with us.
Of course some askers really only want the answer but I don't think any of us want to offer an answer only service. The forum gets much too busy at times. It would be better if 'question dumpers' were discouraged.
Please, before you answer in full, think about whether that is best way to promote learning.
For example: Today I was asked "What is 15% of $12.80"
I sent the asker to this you tube clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rR95Cbcjzus
A bit of Sydney trivia,
It was officially 45.3 degrees C ( 113 degrees F) where I live in western Sydney today. You should not be turned off visiting Sydney though. Temperatures this high are almost unheard of. Good thing too - that is what I say. My washing was dry before I got it on the line LOL :))
That is it for this very hot Sydney Sunday.

There seems to be a problem on question page 1066. I can not open it, nor can I pass it to access page 1065 or earlier pages.
I am told that a virus is found; VBS/worm. My AVG says that it has dealt with the problem but if I try to access the page again exactly the same thing happens all over. I know! My computer, or this site, has CDD (contagious dumbness disorder). Speaking of CDD, Nauseated was at his hilarious best today, and better still there really were no victims.

Good evening,
I am sorry that sometimes I accidently leave people off the credit list. If this has happened to you then I appologise. Generally speaking I only include members who seriously attempt to answer a question. If you were just playing then you may not be included.
Today our answerers included. CPhill, Mathematician, Alan, Heureka, saseflower, shaniab29544, Happy7, MamaLlama and Sorasyn. Thank you all.
I also miss DragonSlayer554 and Zegroes. I wish they would return. There are others that have passed this way that I also miss very much. The others that come most to mind are Rom, Professor Lopez and Puzzled. Kitty and the troll are the only other ones who are likely to remember the later two. It is easy to lose track of people in life and in a forum environment like this one it is much easier again. I get sad when I think about it. Still, on the plus side whe have few wonderful new people who have filled the void (to some extent anyway). I guess it is the natural cylce of regeneration.
Anyway, here are some interest posts:

Hi everyone,
There were many great questions the last couple of days and fabulous answers were given by TayJay, GoldenLeaf, geno3141, CPhill, Heureka, Baelovesmaths, Landry, happy7, Rosala, Alan, jomarie and saseflower. A big thank you to each of you.
Instructions to questions askers:
1) The number of questions posted is increasing every week. In the last two days there were many questions left unanswered. During the week it is becoming impossible to answer them all. Members should always receive priority.
Older questions tend to lose priority because students often would have found their answers elsewhere or simply lost interest. If your question is still on the first page, please be patient. If your question 'falls off' the first page you are welcome to make a new 'priority post'
Perhaps you could title it "Unanswered question - please can someone help me."
PLEASE DO NOT REWRITE THE QUESTION.
Copy the address of your original question and paste it into the post.
(Most of you can do this by highlighting the address in the address bar - right click - choose copy from the menu. Then place curser where you want it in the new post, right click and choose paste from the drop down menu)
This way your question will not be answered twice. Answerers are too busy for that - there are always other people waiting. Please be considerate of others.
Here is an example of a 'bumped' question from today.
http://web2.0calc.com/questions/unanswered-question-from-yesterday
2) If you want to query an answer you are always encouraged to do so. We want to teach you.
If you do not understand then let us know. When you are satisfied please say thank you and if you are a member give thumbs up.

There were not that many questions or people about today. I have still been very busy. Our little forum, often referred to as Camelot, is growing up. Even when the number of questions is less than usual there is an ever increasing percentage of difficult questions. This forum is very new. It is still evolving rapidly. Sometimes I think of it as a young river gouging its way through the mountians. It is exciting to be a part of this adventure.

I find other people's cultures very interesting to learn about and the interaction also helps make people of the world a little more understanding and tolerant of each other.

A look atsolutions for addition and subtraction of fractions:
I constantly see people change mixed numerals into improper fractions for addition and subtraction and it is just not necessary. Tetration, you have done a nice, very well presented answer here and I thank you but I would really like you and others to take a good look at my answer. It is always good to examine new techniques.

Tetration has taught me how to use Hyperlinks in here. Thanks Tetration
Maybe other people use them but I have not noticed before. When you write a post there is the ribbon at the top. The furthest button to the right is a linked chain. (It looks a bit like a pair of specs)
Just click on that.
There are 2 input boxes. One is where you paste your copied web address and the other is where you write what you want it to be called. It is very simple. The hyperlink does not work while you are in edit mode, but it works fine in the published post.

It was very busy today and I find that the more busy it is the less 'interest' post that I collect. This is because I do not have time to look at interesting questions unless I make a conscious decision to answer them. There were many unanswered questions today. Some were trivial and some were hard. If you are a question asker please go through the procedure that has been outlined for reposting. This can be found in any Lantern Post and it is also in the Infomation for New People sticky post. It is also here
Interest posts:
1) Simple Harmonic motion - Energy and Force Thanks Alan
2) Web2 calc - Integrals and Differentials. Thanks Alan.
3) How long will it take to makes shirts. This one is easy but they can be very difficult. So take a look at the easy one and then the hard one might not be so hard
Thanks Melody and CPhill.
4) Find the side length of an equilateral triange inscribed in a circle - without trig!

Good Evening Everyone,
Well we had lots of answerers today. It is great when people get involved. I always feel that people are much more likely to learn if they offer solutions. (So long as they really do have some idea of what they are doing) My logic is that if they have given it a go they are much more likely to look and learn if someone else comes in with a different answer.
Try to use your watch list well to store the questions that you have answered. They blink at you in a very demanding fashion if someone else posts and you have not seen it yet. I wrote a post about this a while back.
How to track your answers I should not have put the word casual in there. This could be good for anyone.
Our wonderful answerers today were
Alan, Tiddle, CPhill, Happy7, realmadrid, loleris, gar12, Rosala, noob123, geno3141, TayJay, dodgeminer, saseflower, jmurphy111 and Heureka. A huge thank you to each and every one of you :)

Today our wonderful answerers were CPhill, Heureka, Rosala and Bertie. Thank you.
Well the weekend is always a bit quieter and today was no exception but there was a high proportion of both really good and really hard questions. So I found choosing the interest posts difficult today.
I always attempt to include a cross section of questions so that most people can find something of interest. If anyone ever wants a particular question included or if you have a general comment or suggestions please let me know. It is probably best to do this by private message or on the Lantern post.

Just wondering-
Who made this site? How was it made?
I mean, I'm curious about the site. Who is the owner?
Thanks, just want to make sure this site is safe.
Here’s a post that will start you on your quest for answers.
Safe is relative. You might pull a muscle in your brain studying the maths on here. You might catch CDD. You will be exposed to OCD trolls who constantly post questions of what is 1+1 and 9+10. If you post a stupid question or answer, one or more humorous trolls may poke fun at you.
You may get your knuckles whacked with a ruler for posting on the headmistress’ “End-of Day/Session Wrap” – like you just did. (Better put on some gloves.)
In all, the risk is worth it. The maths on here range from very basic elementary to the very advanced theoretical. The forum has polite children and brats too. There are highly educated adults on here and a fair share of dumb ones too.
Enter at your own risk. We always welcome ants and flies to our parlor of ant-lions, spiders and trolls –oh my . . .
..........Besides all that....our CRAPCULATOR is now fully fuctional, too.....well.....almost......we had to get rid of a few "bugs".......not to mention some assorted ant-lions and spiders and trolls.....(oh my !!!!....)
Yes, if you can tolerate Nauseated, then this site is safe.
If you private message people in any forum you do have to be a little on guard but if you are sensible and don't give out personal information like your address or phone number you can learn a lot and have a lot of fun on this innocent little site.
Now for the big stick. Please do not post on my wrap! LOL

Our little forum is continuing to mature. I think that it is still a friendly place for the children although the number of purely social posts does seem to have reduced. However, we are increasingly attracting higher level questions. I thank our regular high level answerers greatly for this. Alan, Heureka, Bertie, CPhill, Geno3141 and occasionally DavidQD , and even Nauseated when he is behaving himself. I cannot overstate how much I appreciate having you all here.
I do not want Camelot to become just another high level forum, there are plenty of those, but I do want to cater for a very wide range of ability levels and I am very pleased with the present path that the forum is taking.
