Mathematical formulas textbook

[Orsorum]

I'm looking for a general textbook, or guide, I suppose, that lists all the different mathematical formulas, basic engineering formulas, etc. Something that would list the steps for integration, plus the different forms that integrals might take, for example.

Any recommendations?

mm... you can get those little laminated cheatsheets at the uw bookstore

Bah, none of those. One of the big, thick, "I'm a smart guy so I get to have one of these on my bookshelf" type textbooks.

Yeesh, what are they teaching you kids nowadays.

Oh, friggin 2.6 in Math 126. 3.7 in Math 307, though, .

307 was just cool. The first couple weeks were confusing for me, and where we learned about damped and undamped vibrations. Overall, it was an awesome class. I remember sitting there during the final, thinking "Hot damn, I know how to do this!"

I'm excited for 308 and 394.

Is this something like what you're looking for? I have their Standard Mathematical Tables 21st Edition (from the '70's) which I found at a second hand book store for about $15. The one I have is hardcover and about 700+ pages. I couldn't even begin to list how much they've stuffed into it.

That's exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks!

This thing ROCKS. It's got all sorts of whacked out formulas for everything...even like 1000 entries in the integration table :Q. But if it's not in that book, it probably doesnt exist. wwMathWorld is also a great resource for formulas/basic explanations of a plethora of math concepts.

I love having the integration tables... hee hee, makes integration so much easier when you don't have to think.
