Dictionaries Of Mice and Men

I had planned to do some work in our math dictionaries today. Ah well, the best laid plans of mice and men .... ;-)

Some of the terms we'll enter tomorrow are:
  • Term

  • Monomial

  • Binomial

  • Trinomial

  • Polynomial

  • Dividend

  • Divisor

  • Quotient

  • Remainder

  • Factor

There are some very good math dictionaries that can be found online. I found one here and another there. Which one do you think has a better definition of the word "factor"? ;-)

John,

Your point of view is well articulated. You started your preference, gave a good reason including an example of how it helped you learn something. I definitely value your opinion. ;-)
