R.I.C. Publications Maths Terms and Tables Simple descriptions of terms clear

Written by leading mathematical educators, Paul Swan, Linda Marshall and Jack Bana. In language it is common for a parent, teacher or student to make use of a dictionary to check the spelling, meaning, pronunciation or origin of a word. In mathematics, however, where language can often prove to be a stumbling block, it is rare for a dictionary to be consulted. In this publication we have tried to give brief and simple explanations of terms without sacrificing accuracy.
