Today in History...

Today in History I learned about the effects of the industrial revolution.

The Industrial Revolution was a period in the late 18th and early 19th centuries when major changes in agriculture, manufacturing, production, and transportation had a profound effect on the socioeconomic and cultural conditions in Britain. The changes subsequently spread throughout Europe, North America, and eventually the world. The onset of the Industrial Revolution marked a major turning point in human society; almost every aspect of daily life was eventually influenced in some way.

Today in Math...

Today in math i learned about vectors.

A vector involves translations. It's the distance on a coordinate plane from one image to it's translated self. If you have a triangle at points (1,2) (1,3) and (1,1) and you move the triangle to points (1,3) (1,4) and (1,2) you have a vector of <0,1> if you had moved it down a unit, you would have a vector of <0,-1>
