• binary digit

  A binary digit, or bit, is the smallest unit of data in computing. A 0 or a 1 represents it.
• binary number

  In mathematics and digital electronics, a binary number is a number expressed in the base-2 numeral system or binary numeral system, which uses only two symbols: typically, 0 (zero) and 1 (one).
• binary relation

  A binary relation on a set A is a set of ordered pairs of elements of A.
• binomial

  An algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms
• binomial coefficient

  The binomial coefficient is the number of ways of picking unordered outcomes from possibilities, also known as a combination or combinatorial number. The symbols and are used to denote a binomial coefficient and are sometimes read as "choose."
• binomial distribution

  A frequency distribution of the possible number of successful outcomes in a given number of trails in each of which there is the same probability of success.
• binomial expansion

  Describes the algebraic expansion of powers of a binomial.
• binormal vectors

  The cross product of the unit tangent and unit normal vector.
• biomathematics

  Biomathematics, or mathematical biology, is a interdisciplinary field that applies mathematical techniques and models to analyze and understand biological phenomena, processes, and systems.
• bisect

  To bisect means to divide something into two equal parts.
• boundary

  A line which marks the limits of an area / a dividing line.
• boundary condition

  A condition that is required to be satisfied at all or part of the boundary of a region in which a set of differential conditions is to be solved.
• boundary point

  A point which is a member of the set closure of a given set and the set closure of its complement set. If is a subset of, then a point is a boundary point of if every neighbourhood of contains at least one point in and at least one point not in.
• bounded function

  A function f defined on some set x with real or complex values is called bounded, if the set of its values is bounded. In other words, there exists a real number m such that. For all x in x, a function that is not bounded is said to be unbounded.
• bounded set

  A set is called bounded, if it is, in a certain sense, of finite size. Conversely, a set which is not bounded is called unbounded. The word bounded makes no sense in a general topological space without a corresponding metric.
• brace

  Curly bracket {.
• brackets

  A bracket is a tall punctuation mark commonly used in matched pairs within text, to set apart or interject other text.
• calculus

  Calculus (from Latin calculus, literally 'small pebble', used for counting and calculations, as on an abacus) is the mathematical study of continuous change
• canonical form

  Is a standard way of presenting that object as a mathematical expression.
• cartesian coordinate system

  Is a coordinate system that specifies each point uniquely in a plane by a set of numerical coordinates, which are the signed distances to the point from two fixed perpendicular directed lines, measured in the same unit of length
• cartesian product

  The cartesian product of two sets is a set, and the elements of that set are ordered pairs. In each ordered pair, the first component is an element of A, and the second component is an element of B.
• catenary

  A catenary is the curve that an idealized hanging chain or cable assumes under its own weight when supported only at its ends and acted upon by gravity. The shape of a catenary is a hyperbolic cosine function.
• centimetre

  A metric unit for measuring length, equal to one hundredth of a metre
• central tendency

  The tendency for the values of a random variable to cluster round its mean, mode, or median.
• centre of gravity

  The centre of gravity(cg) of an object is the point at which weight is evenly dispersed and all sides are in balance.
