Elementary Calculus

Contributor: Corral

Publisher: Michael Corral

License: Free Documentation License (GNU)

This textbook covers calculus of a single variable, suitable for a year-long (or two-semester) course. Chapters 1-5 cover Calculus I, while Chapters 6-9 cover Calculus II. The book is designed for students who have completed courses in high-school algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Though designed for college students, it could also be used in high schools. The traditional topics are covered, but the old idea of an infinitesimal is resurrected, owing to its usefulness (especially in the sciences).

Extra pearls in graph theory

Contributor: Petrunin

Publisher: Anton Petrunin

I used these topics together with the textbook "Pearls in graph theory" to teach an undergraduate course in graph theory at the Pennsylvania State University. I tried to keep clarity and simplicity on the same level.

First Semester in Numerical Analysis with Python

Contributor: Liu

Publisher: Auraria Institutional Repository

License: CC BY-NC-SA

The book is based on “First semester in Numerical Analysis with Julia”, written by Giray Ökten. The contents of the original book are retained, while all the algorithms are implemented in Python (Version 3.8.0). Python is an open source (under OSI), interpreted, general-purpose programming language that has a large number of users around the world. Python is ranked the third in August 2020 by the TIOBE programming community index, a measure of popularity of programming languages, and is the top-ranked interpreted language. We hope this book will better serve readers who are interested in a first course in Numerical Analysis, but are more familiar with Python for the implementation of the algorithms.

The Joy of Cryptography

Contributor: Rosulek

Publisher: Oregon State University

License: CC BY-NC-SA

The pedagogical approach is anchored in formal definitions/proof of security, but in a way that I believe is more accessible than what is "traditional" in crypto. All security definitions are written in a unified and simplified "game-based" style. For an example of what security definitions look like in this style, see the index of security definitions (which will make more sense after reading chapters 2 & 4).
