-What is the difference between a PhD in Mathematics and a large pizza?

-Large pizza can feed a whole family.

Znanost Mladima? That's so old. I always went to Math and Geography. I know that it doesn't have to do much with each other, but I was goos at it. Actualy, in highschool I sucked at math at school, but I never missed those competitions. Eh, good times. happy (darn, I sounded so old tongue )

Pizza > PhD Math - true, but I love Math more that I love pizza. wink

This made me smile, even though a large pizza can only just feed me. happy

Thanks. happy


Now, we need some more Math jokes. grin Except 'm out of the league now. No more Mathematics for me, now that I'm on Uni, which is kind of a relief. I have silly Quantitative Biology, though. Which is just Statistics in a poor desguise. They cunningly lure people in by putting the word Biology in the module name. frustrated The only boring subject I have at Uni.

Anakin: "I don't like bar charts. They're coarse and rough and irritating, and the bars get everywhere. Not like here. Here everything's soft... and smooth... like a sine graph..."

tongue

And now, a rewrite!

ANAKIN: Padme, I saw your ship...
PADME: Oh, Anakin!
ANAKIN: It's all right, you're safe now. What are you doing out here?
PADME: I was so worried about you. Obi-Wan told me terrible things.
ANAKIN: What things?
PADME: He said you have turned around the point of infinity... that you tried to get the sqrt of -1.
ANAKIN: Obi-Wan is trying to balance the equation.
PADME: He cares about us.
ANAKIN: Us??!
PADME: He knows . . . He wants to help you.
ANAKIN: Is Obi-Wan going to protect you? He can't ... he can't help you. He's not strong enough.
PADME: Anakin, all I want is your love.
ANAKIN: Love won't save you, Padme. Only trigonometry can do that.
PADME: At what cost? You are a good person. Don't do this.
ANAKIN: I won't lose you the way I lost my mother! I've become more powerful than Yoda^18 and I've done it for you. To protect you.
PADME: Come away with me. Help me raise our child. Leave everything else behind while we still can.
ANAKIN: Don't you see, we don't have to run away anymore. I have brought maths to the Republic. I am more powerful than any function. I can differentiate them, and together you and I can rule the galaxy. Make maths the way we want it to be.
PADME: I don't believe what I'm hearing . . . Obi-Wan was right. You've changed.
ANAKIN: I don't want to hear any more about Obi-Wan. The Mathematicians turned against me. Don't you turn against me.
PADME: I don't know you anymore. Anakin, UR braking my <3 :'(. I'll never stop loving you, but you are going down a path I can't follow.
ANAKIN: Because of Obi-Wan?
PADME: Because of what you've done . . . what you plan to do. Stop, stop now. Come back! I love you.
ANAKIN: (seeing Obi-Wan) Lier!
PADME: No!
ANAKIN: You're with him. You've unbalanced me! You brought him here to differentiate me!
PADME: NO! Anakin. I swear ... I ...
OBI-WAN: Let her go, Anakin.
ANAKIN: What have you and she been up to?
OBI-WAN: Let her go!
ANAKIN: You turned her against me.
OBI-WAN: You have done that yourself.
ANAKIN: You will not take her from me.
OBI-WAN: Your lust for maths has already done that. You have allowed this Sith Lord to twist your mind until now . . . until now you have become the very thing you swore to differentiate.
ANAKIN: Don't lecture me, Obi-Wan. I see through the lies of the Mathematicians. I do not fear the Prime Numbers as you do. I have brought soul, life, sex, and partying to my PMF.
OBI-WAN: Your PMF?
ANAKIN: Don't make me differentiate you.
OBI-WAN: Anakin, my allegiance is to the Mathematicians... to logic.
ANAKIN: If you're not with me, you're my enemy.
OBI-WAN: Only a Sith deals in Prime Numbers. I will do what I must.
ANAKIN: You will try.

Yes, some of your stuff is pretty much senceless so that leaves the reader confused.. But the rest is hilarious! grin

I would have to disagree here and say that the ability to do simple trigonometrical functions is insignificant next to
the power of the fractals and the chaos geometry. cool


Cobr posted:

I also wouldn't call sine smooth. It is curvy and repeating. And in the university level Math, it can get tough and irritating. Not like the linear function. Now that is soft and smooth linear simplicity. I like linear functions. You have one x, one a and one b. No need to complicate your life more than it already is. wink
