Title: a.(b+c)=a.b+a.c, So what?

Abstract: The distributive property of addition and multiplication of real numbers can be used to simplify computation in mathematics. In this talk, I will show that this simple idea can be generalized in interesting ways and repeated application of the distributive law can result in huge computational savings in some engineering problems.
