Re: Functions
Have you ever been riding a taxi? It has a linear function.
Actually I never watch Star Wars and not interested in it anyway, but I choose a Yoda card as my avatar in honor of our great friend bobbym who has passed away.
May his adventurous soul rest in peace at heaven.

Re: Functions
hi Zeeshan 01
There are several that use the sine function: waves; the difference between mean clock time and the time as given by a Sun dial; high and low tide values etc etc.
lots of quadratics here: https://plus.maths.org/content/101-uses … on-part-ii
