Which is all well and good but I like math a lot better when it's serving a purpose. The fact that A=L+E and if it doesn't, you are WRONG!!! is very comforting.crimson5pheonix said:Fun times. Math is all sorts of fun. Because it makes perfect sense when it makes absolutely no sense at all.SimuLord said:I stuck a qualifier in there about 2 decimal places.

2*2=3, and for values of 2 where 2.25<X<2.5, 2+2=5. My Statistics professor used that as Exhibit A for why she'd mark us down if we ever rounded a figure before the final answer.
Debits and credits and net income statements
Depreciation and tax code abatements
Keeping compliance with government strings
These are a few of my favorite things
When the trial doesn't balance
When the books go mad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feeeeeeel so bad
an elite percentage of Pie equals the answer to the answer to the question of the life the universe and everything.

But it needs to go off into the wacky. It's how we move forward, looking into strange abstracts that may coincide with nature. Knowing enough math to calculate a margin of error means we can see what causes the margin of error. It's the strange math that leads us to forces unknown.SimuLord said:Which is all well and good but I like math a lot better when it's serving a purpose.

Ah, bugger off. I rely on my memory as a way-too-frequent visitor to these forums rather than some silly search bar. I figure if I don't remember seeing it, it didn't happen. Or it happened so long ago that 99% of the posters forgot about it.Rainforce said:
