  • set 1. 10 tricky math problems.
  • set 2. Another 10 tricky math problems.
  • Fibonacci number and ratio generator. Generates elements of the Fibonacci series, 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13..., and calculates the ratio between adjacent elements. Ratio approaches phi = (sqrt(5) - 1) / 2 .
  • e approximator. Approximates the Naperien base, e, by the formula ( 1 + h ) ^ ( 1 / h ) as h approaches 0.
  • gamma approximator. Approximates the Euler-Mascheroni constant, gamma = ~ 0.577, by a tricky formula.
  • Triangle series generator. Generates elements of the series comprised of the number of identical objects that can be arranged in a 2-d triangle, like bowling pins.
