In this short article we will present some problems related to the calculation of points with integer coordinates, contained inside or on the boundary of some plane figures. This type of problem has very…
The French mathematician Bertrand (1822-1900) formulated the conjecture that for every positive integer \(n\) there is always at least one prime number \(p\) such that \[ n \lt p \le 2n \] This conjecture was proved…
1) Ordinary generating functions of a variable Generating functions are an important tool for solving combinatorial problems of various types. A typical problem is the counting of the number of objects as a function…
The geometry of curves and surfaces is of fundamental importance in computer graphics and in video game programming. In this article we will describe the mathematics of interpolation curves, in particular splines and Bézier…
Animation has an essential role in video games. Most video games try to simulate real world physics; in order to achieve this objective it is essential to be able to represent, in the most…
This article gives a brief illustration of Newton’s laws of motion in the plane and analyzes the tools that the Unity 2D engine makes available to programmers to simulate the movement of bodies in…
