minus-squareMaalus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·8 hours agoYou guys are mathematicians not letterematicians. Also, I’m doing engineering shit and I still need to count using my fingers when calculating something on a multiplication table
minus-squareBuddahriffic@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·4 hours agoAs a math guy, obviously the order of the letters is: x, y, z, a, b, c, then the rest of them in whatever order I currently feel like. As a CS guy, obviously the order is sort( [ set of all letters ] ).
minus-squarejawa21@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·7 hours agoI do trig for a living. I don’t remember how to do long division at all.
minus-squareaffiliate@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·8 hours agoexactly! and i am always in favor of counting with fingers. we were given them for a reason, might as well make the most of them. counting is hard enough as it is
minus-squareDragon "Rider"(drag)@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 hours agoNo, counting with fingers is bad. Count with phalanges instead. It’s more efficient
minus-squaresomeacnt_@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 hours agoCounting cohomology has done to me a numbers x_x
minus-squareAtlas_@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·6 hours agoExactly. That’s why I refuse to do algebra.
