:A good list, but presumably some things (like the Taylor expansion, partial derivatives, Hessian matrix, real multivariable calculus) are to be mentioned and linked to, not to be covered in too much depth here.

::By now, I've at least scraped the surface of a number of entries in the list. Any corrections of my inaccuracies are appreciated in advance.
::Maybe some examples could be removed but not sure which ones. The geometric examples are always nice for easy visualization (surfaces of conics and surfaces/volumes of certain 3d solids). Considering the recent complaints at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mathematics#Linear function, Linear Equation, Linear Inequality full of errors and inconsistencies and "matheese"]] about "linear equations" and "linear functions", etc. we should at least keep the plane and hyperplane examples... as well as non-linear examples for contrast. The inclusion of a variety of examples in physics/engineering/applied maths is essential. For compactness maybe we could tabulate some examples but it would not be encyclopaedic to do so... Will look at trimming later. [[user:Maschen|'''M∧''Ŝ''''']][[special:contributions/Maschen|''c''<sup>2</sup>''ħ''ε]][[user talk:maschen|''И<sub>τlk</sub>'']] 10:08, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
