(Maseno University, 2016)
Education progress plays a very important role in determining the future of a pupil and even in planning for the schools and education sector as a whole. Primary Education forms the basis of implementing Poverty Reduction ...
Analysis of young people’s career by use of Markov chains: case study of Kisumu city
(Maseno University, 2017)
It is the desire of every person to have a career. Not much thought has been taken by young people on how they can arrive at their future careers. The reason is mainly because they are not aware. As much as many people ...
Numerical Solutions of Burgers Equation Using Hybrid Methods
(Maseno University, 2016)
Research on Burgers equation: u_t + 〖uu〗_x = 〖αu〗_xx which is a second order nonlinear partial differential equation is gaining interest for its application and mathematics itself. It arises in model studies of turbulence ...
