An array is a list of data. Each piece of data in an array is identified by an index number representing its position in the array. Arrays are zero based, which means that the first element in the array is [0], the second element is [1], and so on. In this example, an array named "coswav" is created and filled with the cosine values. This data is displayed three separate ways on the screen.

|Description|documentation for ExternalTiddlersPlugin|
This plugin extends the {{{<<tiddler>>}}} macro syntax so you can retrieve and wikify content directly from external files or remote URLs. You can also define alternative "fallback" sources to provide basic "import on demand" handling by automatically creating/importing tiddler content from external sources when the specified ~TiddlerName does not already exist in your document.
!!!!!Configuration
>see ExternalTiddlersPlugin
!!!!!Usage
<<<
The standard TiddlyWiki core syntax for the {{{<<tiddler>>}}} macro is:
>{{{<<tiddler TiddlerName with: param param param ...>>}}}
where the optional {{{with: param param param...}}} values are used to replace any corresponding "substitution markers" ($1 to $9) that may be embedded in the referenced tiddler content.
This plugin allows the {{{<<tiddler>>}}} macro to ''use external file/URL references in place of the usual ~TiddlerName parameter'', so that you can render wiki-formatted source content retrieved from an external file/URL reference (as determined by the core's isExternalLink() test function), ''//as if// it had come from a tiddler in the current document''. The external file/URL can be either ''a relative or absolute reference'' and can contain ''"plain text" or a full TiddlyWiki document''. When using a TiddlyWiki document, you must specify which tiddlers should be included in the output by appending a permaview-like suffix to the file or URL reference, e.g.:
>{{{<<tiddler "myfile.txt" with: param param param...>>}}}
>or
>{{{<<tiddler "myfile.html#TiddlerName TiddlerName..." with: param param param...>>}}}
>or
>{{{<<tiddler "http://www.TiddlyWiki.com/index.html#HelloThere" with: param param param...>>}}}
If the plugin-enhanced {{{<<tiddler>>}}} macro is unable to retrieve the external content -- perhaps because the file doesn't exist or doesn't contain the requested tiddler(s), or cross-domain security blocked file access, or the network/server "timed out", etc., -- then it produces no output (i.e., just as when the standard {{{<<tiddler>>}}} macro is given a ~TiddlerName does not exist in the current document.)
<<<
!!!!!Using alternative "fallback" references
<<<
In addition to using external file/URL references in place of the usual ~TiddlerName, the plugin also allows you to use a ''fallback list'' consisting of a combination of alternative sources: tiddlers, local files, and/or URL references, each separated by "|". The first reference in a fallback list is the "primary source"; the remaining references are "fallback sources". The plugin will attempt to retrieve content from each fallback source until one is successfully retrieved or all alternatives have been tried.
For example, if you create a tiddler called [[HelloThere]], as well as a remotely-hosted TW document containing a published tiddler, also called [[HelloThere]], then you can write:
>{{{<<tiddler [[HelloThere|http://www.TiddlyWiki.com/#HelloThere]]>>}}}
When [[HelloThere]] is present in the local document, it is processed in the normal manner. However, if you delete the local [[HelloThere]] tiddler, the plugin will attempt to retrieve the [[HelloThere]] tiddler from the indicated remote URL.
Please note: although you can list any number of alternative sources, in whatever order you prefer, retrieval from a remote URL occurs asynchronously via XMLHttpRequest() processing. As a consequence, there can be ''no more than one remote URL reference in the fallback list'', and any alternatives that follow a remote URL reference will not be processed.
<<<
!!!!!Automatically import/create missing tiddlers
<<<
When content is retrieved from an external fallback source, the plugin can automatically import/create tiddler(s) containing that content into your document, allowing you to display, modify, save and/or search for text in that tiddler from within your own document, without needing to retrieve it again from the external source.
If no local ~TiddlerName(s) are specified in the fallback list (i.e., only direct file/URL references are present), then a tiddler will NOT be created, so that each time you render the tiddler display the external source will be re-read in order to render the most recently saved external file content. To illustrate using the example from above:
> {{{<<tiddler [[HelloThere|http://www.TiddlyWiki.com/#HelloThere]]>>}}}
will automatically create a locally-stored [[HelloThere]] tiddler, so that the external source is only accessed the first time the content is rendered, while:
> {{{<<tiddler [[http://www.TiddlyWiki.com/#HelloThere]]>>}}}
will re-load the content from the external source each time the display is rendered.
For easy identification, any tiddlers that are automatically created/imported are tagged with <<tag external>> (or other custom-defined tag values). These tiddlers can also be automatically tagged with <<tag temporary>> for use with [[TemporaryTiddlersPlugin]], which will skip over those tiddlers when saving changes to your document so that when you reload the document, the temporary tiddlers will no longer be present and will be retrieved anew from the external source, on demand, when (or if) they are needed. Important reminder: ''If you modify a temporary tiddler and want to retain it in your local document, be sure to remove the <<tag temporary>> tag from the tiddler before saving.''
<<<
!!!!!~XMLHttpRequest: performance and security issues
<<<
This plugin uses asynchronous XMLHttpRequest() processing to access external content directly from URLs hosted on remote web servers. This often creates delays ranging from mere moments to many minutes while waiting for the remote web server to transfer the requested file. This performance can vary greatly depending upon the size of the remote file, how the remote server responds to repeated requests for the same URL (e.g, with a //"304 - no change"// response code), as well as how your ''browser's cache mechanism'' has been configured (to avoid repeated downloads).
In addition to server-originated delays, ''cross-domain access from one remote domain to another using XMLHttpRequest() processing is generally restricted for security reasons''. As a result, if you publish your document to a remote web server, then external file/URL references contained in that document will not work if they are not located on the same server as the hosted document.
Fortunately, this security restriction does NOT usually apply when accessing remote URLs rendered into a locally-viewed document, since blocking such access would interfere with normal browser functions! As a "rule of thumb", in order to ensure that external content included in server-hosted documents will be displayed as intended, you should ''always use either a relative path/file reference or an http: reference located on the same domain as the published document.'' for any document you intend to publish.
Note: Some hosting providers, such as http://www.TiddlySpot.com/ offer ''"proxy" services that may allow you to bypass the security restrictions'' for certain designated remote web sites. Consult your hosting service for information regarding their proxy arrangments (if any).

!Know your goals
The principal goal of MAT 495 is development of skills for thoughtful investigation and communication of mathematical ideas by mathematics majors while increasing understanding of connections between subareas of mathematics and connections to ideas and methods in other disciplines. Students will develop skills for research of mathematical ideas, as well as skills for effective dissemination of the results of mathematical scholarship in written, visual, and oral formats.
!Select your topic
Finding a topic for a senior seminar can be scary at first thought. You need to do a little investigation. In some cases a student might already have a topic in mind. Sometimes it is a matter of thinking about an unexplored topic from a previous class. Or you could seek out one of your favorite teachers to make some suggestions. You could even look on the Internet or in some journals devoted to teaching mathematics. No matter what your approach, you need to settle on a problem which extends beyond your coursework and it must be something that you will enjoy exploring. The more you get into your investigation topic, the better the final product.
A good starting point is to look at expository mathematics papers that have won writing awards. Lists of such papers can be found at the [[MathDL: MAA Writing Awards site|http://mathdl.maa.org/mathDL/22/]]. For additional resources, look at [[Topic Ideas]].
!Find your advisor
Match your interests to those of department faculty as listed at [[Advisor Prospects]], and talk with these faculty about your topic area. You will need to discuss with your advisor expectations for your project work, as outlined in the [[Advisor Letter|resources/mat-495-advisor-information-2011-08-17.pdf]].
!Propose your project
You will need to write a project proposal outlining the investigation you intend to undertake, and have this proposal approved. The proposal must briefly outline the following, formatted according to the [[Project Proposal Template]]:
*Your interest in the topic
*The research you are proposing to do
*A brief overview of prior research on the topic
*A list of relevant references that you have consulted
Terence Tao addresses the question "[[What is good mathematics?|http://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0702396]]".
!About the ~IncludePlugin
Include other ~TiddlyWikis in your (main) TiddlyWiki, link to included tiddlers, view them in your (main) TiddlyWiki, without opening another TiddlyWiki. Even „search“ looks for included tiddlers.
A great way to share tiddlers, to speed up "save changes" and to keep your ~TiddlyWikis small.
!Smaller ~TiddlyWikis
Other than „imported“ tiddlers, included tiddlers are not copied into your main ~TiddlyWiki. This keeps your individual ~TiddlyWikis small.
Since your TiddlyWikis will become smaller (if you reorganize your TiddlyWikis using the IncludePlugin) also "save changes" becomes faster. You may even consider switching on "AutoSave" or "SaveBackups" again.
See also: [[Including even smaller TiddlyWiki Files]]
!Sharing ~TiddlyWikis
You may include one ~TiddlyWiki in several other ~TiddlyWikis. Changes you make to this shared ~TiddlyWiki are automatically reflected the next time you open the other ~TiddlyWikis, without any extra „import“ step or so.
''Examples''
* you may want to have a single „~TiddlyWikiHelp“ ~TiddlyWiki that you include in all your ~TiddlyWikis. So you can quickly find help information without looking into other files, and without blowing up your ~TiddlyWikis.
* You "archive" your old journal tiddlers into an extra TiddlyWiki (e.g. one per month) and just include the archived journals in you "current month diary/blog". This way you still have access to the old information (e.g. to reference historic information) but you avoid your diary/blog will get to large.

Using the AdvancedOptions page you have an easy way to configure the IncludePlugin options.
You will find a section like this:
{{optionsBlock{
<<option chkUseInclude>> Include ~TiddlyWikis (IncludeList | IncludeState | [[help|http://tiddlywiki.abego-software.de/#%5B%5BIncludePlugin%20Documentation%5D%5D]])
^^(Reload this ~TiddlyWiki to make changes become effective)^^
}}}
* By default the IncludePlugin is enabled. If you uncheck the checkbox external TiddlyWikis are not included.
* The IncludeList is the preferred place for your {{{<<include ...>>}}} lines.
* The IncludeState page gives you can an overview what TiddlyWikis are included etc.
* The help directs you to the online documentation of the Include Plugin.
Many implementations of ~LaTeX are available for different operating systems, however these installation instructions are for MS Windows.
There are two pieces: the main packages for running ~LaTeX and an editor to compose your documents. Here we provide directions for downloading ~MiKTeX and ~TeXworks.
#Go to the [[MikTeX setup site|http://www.miktex.org/2.9/setup]] and follow the installation directions for Basic ~MiKTeX 2.9.
#Go to the [[TeXworks download site|http://www.tug.org/texworks/]] and follow the installation directions for ~TeXworks 0.4.3l.
When you start ~TeXworks, you may need to set the path for ~MikTeX through the Preferences/Typesetting toolbar item.

!Description<html><a name="Description"/></html>
With the {{{<part aPartName> ... </part>}}} feature you can structure your tiddler text into separate (named) parts.
Each part can be referenced as a "normal" tiddler, using the "//tiddlerName//''/''//partName//" syntax (e.g. "About/Features"). E.g. you may create links to the parts (e.g. {{{[[Quotes/BAX95]]}}} or {{{[[Hobbies|AboutMe/Hobbies]]}}}), use it in {{{<<tiddler...>>}}} or {{{<<tabs...>>}}} macros etc.
''Syntax:''
|>|''<part'' //partName// [''hidden''] ''>'' //any tiddler content// ''</part>''|
|//partName//|The name of the part. You may reference a part tiddler with the combined tiddler name "//nameOfContainerTidder//''/''//partName//. <<br>>If you use a partName containing spaces you need to quote it (e.g. {{{"Major Overview"}}} or {{{[[Shortcut List]]}}}).|
|''hidden''|When defined the content of the part is not displayed in the container tiddler. But when the part is explicitly referenced (e.g. in a {{{<<tiddler...>>}}} macro or in a link) the part's content is displayed.|
|<html><i>any tiddler content</i></html>|<html>The content of the part.<br>A part can have any content that a "normal" tiddler may have, e.g. you may use all the formattings and macros defined.</html>|
|>|~~Syntax formatting: Keywords in ''bold'', optional parts in [...]. 'or' means that exactly one of the two alternatives must exist.~~|
<html><sub><a href="javascript:;" onclick="window.scrollAnchorVisible('Top',null, event)">[Top]</sub></a></html>
!Applications<html><a name="Applications"/></html>
!!Refering to Paragraphs of a Longer Tiddler<html><a name="LongTiddler"/></html>
Assume you have written a long description in a tiddler and now you want to refer to the content of a certain paragraph in that tiddler (e.g. some definition.) Just wrap the text with a ''part'' block, give it a nice name, create a "pretty link" (like {{{[[Discussion Groups|Introduction/DiscussionGroups]]}}}) and you are done.
Notice this complements the approach to first writing a lot of small tiddlers and combine these tiddlers to one larger tiddler in a second step (e.g. using the {{{<<tiddler...>>}}} macro). Using the ''part'' feature you can first write a "classic" (longer) text that can be read "from top to bottom" and later "reuse" parts of this text for some more "non-linear" reading.
<html><sub><a href="javascript:;" onclick="window.scrollAnchorVisible('Top',null, event)">[Top]</sub></a></html>
!!Citation Index<html><a name="Citation"/></html>
Create a tiddler "Citations" that contains your "citations".
Wrap every citation with a part and a proper name.
''Example''
{{{
<part BAX98>Baxter, Ira D. et al: //Clone Detection Using Abstract Syntax Trees.//
in //Proc. ICSM//, 1998.</part>
<part BEL02>Bellon, Stefan: //Vergleich von Techniken zur Erkennung duplizierten Quellcodes.//
Thesis, Uni Stuttgart, 2002.</part>
<part DUC99>Ducasse, Stéfane et al: //A Language Independent Approach for Detecting Duplicated Code.//
in //Proc. ICSM//, 1999.</part>
}}}
You may now "cite" them just by using a pretty link like {{{[[Citations/BAX98]]}}} or even more pretty, like this {{{[[BAX98|Citations/BAX98]]}}}.
<html><sub><a href="javascript:;" onclick="window.scrollAnchorVisible('Top',null, event)">[Top]</sub></a></html>
!!Creating "multi-line" Table Cells<html><a name="TableCells"/></html>
You may have noticed that it is hard to create table cells with "multi-line" content. E.g. if you want to create a bullet list inside a table cell you cannot just write the bullet list
{{{
* Item 1
* Item 2
* Item 3
}}}
into a table cell (i.e. between the | ... | bars) because every bullet item must start in a new line but all cells of a table row must be in one line.
Using the ''part'' feature this problem can be solved. Just create a hidden part that contains the cells content and use a {{{<<tiddler >>}}} macro to include its content in the table's cell.
''Example''
{{{
|!Subject|!Items|
|subject1|<<tiddler ./Cell1>>|
|subject2|<<tiddler ./Cell2>>|
<part Cell1 hidden>
* Item 1
* Item 2
* Item 3
</part>
...
}}}
Notice that inside the {{{<<tiddler ...>>}}} macro you may refer to the "current tiddler" using the ".".
BTW: The same approach can be used to create bullet lists with items that contain more than one line.
<html><sub><a href="javascript:;" onclick="window.scrollAnchorVisible('Top',null, event)">[Top]</sub></a></html>
!!Creating Tabs<html><a name="Tabs"/></html>
The build-in {{{<<tabs ...>>}}} macro requires that you defined an additional tiddler for every tab it displays. When you want to have "nested" tabs you need to define a tiddler for the "main tab" and one for every tab it contains. I.e. the definition of a set of tabs that is visually displayed at one place is distributed across multiple tiddlers.
With the ''part'' feature you can put the complete definition in one tiddler, making it easier to keep an overview and maintain the tab sets.
''Example''
The standard tabs at the sidebar are defined by the following eight tiddlers:
* SideBarTabs
* TabAll
* TabMore
* TabMoreMissing
* TabMoreOrphans
* TabMoreShadowed
* TabTags
* TabTimeline
Instead of these eight tiddlers one could define the following SideBarTabs tiddler that uses the ''part'' feature:
{{{
<<tabs txtMainTab
Timeline Timeline SideBarTabs/Timeline
All 'All tiddlers' SideBarTabs/All
Tags 'All tags' SideBarTabs/Tags
More 'More lists' SideBarTabs/More>>
<part Timeline hidden><<timeline>></part>
<part All hidden><<list all>></part>
<part Tags hidden><<allTags>></part>
<part More hidden><<tabs txtMoreTab
Missing 'Missing tiddlers' SideBarTabs/Missing
Orphans 'Orphaned tiddlers' SideBarTabs/Orphans
Shadowed 'Shadowed tiddlers' SideBarTabs/Shadowed>></part>
<part Missing hidden><<list missing>></part>
<part Orphans hidden><<list orphans>></part>
<part Shadowed hidden><<list shadowed>></part>
}}}
Notice that you can easily "overwrite" individual parts in separate tiddlers that have the full name of the part.
E.g. if you don't like the classic timeline tab but only want to see the 100 most recent tiddlers you could create a tiddler "~SideBarTabs/Timeline" with the following content:
{{{
<<forEachTiddler
sortBy 'tiddler.modified' descending
write '(index < 100) ? "* [["+tiddler.title+"]]\n":""'>>
}}}
<html><sub><a href="javascript:;" onclick="window.scrollAnchorVisible('Top',null, event)">[Top]</sub></a></html>
!!Using Sliders<html><a name="Sliders"/></html>
Very similar to the build-in {{{<<tabs ...>>}}} macro (see above) the {{{<<slider ...>>}}} macro requires that you defined an additional tiddler that holds the content "to be slid". You can avoid creating this extra tiddler by using the ''part'' feature
''Example''
In a tiddler "About" we may use the slider to show some details that are documented in the tiddler's "Details" part.
{{{
...
<<slider chkAboutDetails About/Details details "Click here to see more details">>
<part Details hidden>
To give you a better overview ...
</part>
...
}}}
Notice that putting the content of the slider into the slider's tiddler also has an extra benefit: When you decide you need to edit the content of the slider you can just doubleclick the content, the tiddler opens for editing and you can directly start editing the content (in the part section). In the "old" approach you would doubleclick the tiddler, see that the slider is using tiddler X, have to look for the tiddler X and can finally open it for editing. So using the ''part'' approach results in a much short workflow.

!Description
This plugin uses [[MathJax|http://www.mathjax.org/]] to typeset ([[AMS|http://www.ams.org/publications/authors/tex/amslatex]]) [[LaTeX|http://www.latex-project.org/]] math. It can also be configured to use additional MathJax functionality.
>"MathJax is an open source JavaScript display engine for mathematics that works in all modern browsers."
!Notes
Right click any math display for a MathJax menu. The user can select the renderer and zoom settings. It performs best in [[Webkit|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_web_browsers#WebKit-based_browsers]] based browsers. Larger math displays such as the additional examples tiddler below can put quite a load on IE. PluginMathJax was inspired by : [[Plugin: jsMath|http://bob.mcelrath.org/tiddlyjsmath.html]]
!Installation
#''Backup'' your TiddlyWiki!
#Uninstall or remove systemConfig tag from Plugin: jsMath if it is installed.
#It is required that the MathJax directory is installed in '''js/MathJax/''' in the same location as the TiddlyWiki html file.<br>(Or edit the script source where commented in the plugin code below after installation to match the location of your MathJax install.)
#Install this plugin (and examples tiddler linked below if desired).
!Usage
|!Style|!Source|!Output|
|Inline |{{{The variable <math>x</math> is real.}}}|The variable <math>x</math> is real.|
|~|{{{The variable \(y\) is complex.}}}|The variable \(y\) is complex.|
|Block |{{{This \[\int_a^b x = \frac{1}{2}(b^2-a^2)\] is an easy integral.}}}|This \[\int_a^b x = \frac{1}{2}(b^2-a^2)\] is an easy integral.|
|~|{{{This $$\int_a^b \sin x = -(\cos b - \cos a)$$ is another easy integral.}}}|This $$\int_a^b \sin x = -(\cos b - \cos a)$$ is another easy integral.|
| <br />[[Complete list of supported LaTeX commands|http://www.mathjax.org/resources/docs/?tex.html#supported-latex-commands]] |>|>|
!Examples
[[Additional MathJax Examples|MathJax Examples]]
!Configuration
MathJax can be manually configured if desired by editing the code below (advanced). See the [[MathJax documentation|http://www.mathjax.org/resources/docs/?configuration.html#configuration-options-by-component]] for details.
!Revision History
*v1.4.1, 2010-10-18, minor change to createTiddlyElement call and added SyntaxHighlighter tags to code section.
*v1.4, 2010-10-09, re-wrote wikifiers, archived [[previous version|PluginMathJax v1.3]] (Plugin: jsMath - compatible).
*v1.3, 2010-10-07, returned to wikifiers design avoiding autoLink WikiWords conflict, kept modified wikify and recommended way of loading MathJax dynamically, removed the tex2jax extension and corrected several browser compatibility issues (InnerHTML for Opera and IE9).
*v1.2, 2010-10-05, removed some redundant MathJax config entries, moved modified wikify and MathJax.Hub.Queue call.
*v1.1, 2010-10-03, autoLinkWikiWords disabled in absence of DisableWikiLinksPlugin, modifed wikify.
*v1.0, 2010-09-26, Initial Release

Evaluation of the oral presentation will be based on the following set of expectations:
* ''Organization''
** Begin with an introduction, capture audience interest, and to make objectives clear..
** Have an identifiable body of the talk, focusing on the main points and making logical transitions between them.
** End with a conclusion, accentuating the talk layout and identifying related questions or directions for future study.
** Adhere to the 25-40 minute time allotment.
* ''Consideration of the audience''
** Assume the reader has solid mathematical reasoning skills.
** Only assume a background in calculus and the fundamentals doing proofs.
** Distinguish between concepts and results known to readers versus those which require explanation.
** Maintain eye contact during the presentation and include everyone in the audience.
** Aim for audience understanding. What will they take away from your talk?
** Respond appropriately to questions during the question and answer period.
** Treat all questions and questioners with respect.
** Do not read to the audience.
** Dress appropriately.
* ''Understanding of mathematical content''
** Communicate key definitions and results accurately.
** Include appropriate examples to illustrate them.
** Demonstrate understanding how definitions and prior results are applied in the proof.
** Use mathematics software appropriately to reproduce results or examples
* ''Delivery of lucid professional talk''
** It is crucial that the audience understand the main points of the presentation. This is far, far more important than coverage of a large amount of material from the paper.
** Use good judgment in narrowing the scope of the paper for the presentation to achieve this purpose. Can the audience go home and complete a reasonable homework assignment at the level you would be able to do after a class lecture?
** Use good judgment in deciding how to best present the ideas inherent in the presentation, and use forms of media support, including projected computer output, as appropriate. Weigh the advantages and disadvantages of using an overhead slide, a physical model, a computer presentation, etc.
** Use of the whiteboard, while not prohibited, should be kept to an absolute minimum.
** Prepare presentations that
*** are easily read from any place in the seminar room;
*** are simple, uncluttered and designed to help communicate, review and relate main points.
*** use good grammar, word usage, standard notation, layout, and style.
*** avoid mathematical notation errors that can interfere with the clarity of the paper.
** Reference/Cite all content appropriately

/***
|Name|ToggleSideBarMacro|
|Created by|SaqImtiaz|
|Location|http://tw.lewcid.org/#ToggleSideBarMacro|
|Version|1.0|
|Requires|~TW2.x|
!Description:
Provides a button for toggling visibility of the SideBar. You can choose whether the SideBar should initially be hidden or displayed.
!Demo
<<toggleSideBar "Toggle Sidebar">>
!Usage:
{{{<<toggleSideBar>>}}} <<toggleSideBar>>
additional options:
{{{<<toggleSideBar label tooltip show/hide>>}}} where:
label = custom label for the button,
tooltip = custom tooltip for the button,
show/hide = use one or the other, determines whether the sidebar is shown at first or not.
(default is to show the sidebar)
You can add it to your tiddler toolbar, your MainMenu, or where you like really.
If you are using a horizontal MainMenu and want the button to be right aligned, put the following in your StyleSheet:
{{{ .HideSideBarButton {float:right;} }}}
!History
*23-07-06: version 1.0: completely rewritten, now works with custom stylesheets too, and easier to customize start behaviour.
*20-07-06: version 0.11
*27-04-06: version 0.1: working.

!Journals
You can look through journals online or in the library. Checking the [[American Mathematical Monthly|http://www.maa.org/pubs/monthly.html]], [[Mathematics Magazine|http://www.maa.org/pubs/mathmag.html]], and [[College Mathematics Journal|http://www.maa.org/pubs/cmj.html]] can lead you to interesting topics to explore. You want to be interested in what you are spending a whole semester researching. The more you put into this, the more successful you will be. Once you have a topic, then you can find someone to work with you on that topic.
