... centered at d contains no point of E other than d. The idea is that if you don’t move too far from an interior point of E then you remain in E; but at a boundary point you can make an arbitrarily small ... geometrically using Cartesian coordinates or polar coor- dinates. Each of these five ways is useful in different situations, and translating between them is an essential ingredient in...
