Science Does the fact that a circle can not be quadrable depress or annoy you in any way?

Jenson71 · 02-03-2009, 01:17 AM

Because I'm thinking of starting a social group about it.

Yes, there is a point to this thread. This is a topic on math. What are some of your favorite math theorems? How useful do you find math in your everyday life? Do you think learning the various mathematical areas (geometry, calculus, algebra) were useful to you in a practical way or in any kind of abstract way? Do you value your math knowledge?

addition and subtraction is all I need. Maybe even multiplication.

My check adds money to my bank account, bills subtract it. Investments multiply it.

In my personal opinion, mathematics is one of the keys to understanding the mysteries of life. With mathematics, you can predict the future and prove the basic facts of life. Mathematics is the main ingredient of a healthy mind. That is why I studied the **** out of math in school and continue to study in it today. I am not a math genius by any means, but I am an advocate of the old saying, "If you don't use it, you lose it."

To any teenagers out there: take as many math courses as you possibly can. You will not regret this decision.

To any parents out there: encourage your children to take as many math courses as they possibly can.

That's not the way it works for me lately.

I agree wholeheartedly.

Also, **** math.

I use math every day. I play poker a lot and I have to calculate odds. So division/ratio's are pretty key. When I was waiting tables for a living I could also calculate the percentage of the tip to the tenth every time

I fucking hate math. Numbers and I do not get along at all.

A society cannot achieve much technologically without math, so everyone should appreciate what is makes possible. Saying you don't like math is akin to saying you don't like agriculture. You may not like to farm, but you need to eat to survive.

I make a decent living based largely on my ability to apply math to practical situation.

I get great satisfaction and enjoyment out of having a computer do very numerically intensive calculations that represent some aspect of reality.
