Kris Lindeblad - Shadle Park High School - Math References on the Web
http://www.klind.chicogordo.com/mathref.html
Math References on the Web. These are just some of the web sites that offer mathematical formulas, tables, and help. Sometimes searching the web can be faster than going to the library, and certainly less dangerous than bugging "The Blad" for information you should have learned in Algebra. Just don't use this as an excuse to forget how to get to the library.
