The Polynomial Method is one of five new Mathematics courses on OCW. This image from the course illustrates the Petersen graph, a unit distance graph in which each line segment has an equal (unit) length.
OCW rings in 2016 with seventeen courses published during the busy month of December. Eight of these courses are brand-new subjects on OCW, and nine are updates of previously published courses.
