Just greate.
I should know all of these. Spent my time at technical college (maths and physics). Since I graduated I never used all the cool maths stuff. Forgotten, all of it.
sgn(5)=1
sgn(-3)=-1
sgn(0)=0

Never try to be perfect - just try it and make the best out of it

"ln" is common notation for the natural logarithm (log to the base e (≈ 2.7)). Still lost? Logarithms are the "opposite" of exponentials: so if 3<sup>2</sup> = 9, then log 9 (to base 3) = 2. Look at your scientific calculator... :razz:
/deflates what little joke there was :wink:

In my area you learn Logs in either algerbra 2 or a pre-calculus course.
They are easy for those who haven't done them, they look hard in the beggining, but are pretty simple.

To get something to work, sometimes you just have to beat your head against the wall longer; the skin grows back, but the brick doesn't.
