For structural biologists, the molecular mapping of proteins is critical to figuring out their structure and function. But doing so takes patience and persistence. X-ray crystallography involves ...

We find two factors of the product of the constant term (the term with no variable) and the coefficient of the squared variable whose sum gives the linear term. These factors are now placed in ...

Some readers may solve the problem procedurally: line up the two numbers, add the ones column, carry the one, and add the tens to get 43. Others might instead notice a creative shortcut: 29 + 14 is ...
