More Description

This book is all about addition. These problems are suggested for students in the second grade. All the problems are presented in a visual manner, using interconnected circuits. These circuits introduce notions of adding in series as well as parallel. The problems also require ability to order the sequence of additions among the circuit nodes. Such problems can help develop visual and spatial skills.The problems in this book use the addition operator and are more elaborate and difficult than the ones for first grade. Many of the problems are circuit representations for generating algebraic functions such as [n!], n^2, n^3, 2^n, and so on. It develops a curiosity in the student to experiment with other similar graphs on their own. Visual skills are highly desired in the fields of science and engineering. The books in the Visual Mathematics Series are geared to help build the foundations for a career in science, engineering, and mathematics. Similar networks are used in semiconductor chips for parallel operations using logic gates. It should be noted that these generating functions were created by the author specifically for this book series and are not part of any existing published work in research or academia - and hence of greater value to the student.The addition problems have a simple format. A set of pre-determined input values are provided for each problem. The goal is to find intermediate values based on addition of the inputs. The final result is provided in the problem itself. A few solved examples are provided in the beginning for illustration purposes. Solutions are provided for all problems at the end of the book.Also available directly from the publisher, an Amazon company, at: CreateSpace eStore: https://www.createspace.com/4310653
