Lisa isn't that great either. That's a dot product. :tongue2:

...lol...

What do you get when you cross an elephant with an octopus ?

You get an elephant that eats a lot of peanuts.

I thought that went like, "What do you get when you cross a crocodile with an abalone?" A crocabolone.

I'll take her dot product to half else.

Heh, how have I not heard that one before?!

What?

 

[Isaacsname]

Imagine they're both lines, or curves... she just made them "cross" on her graph.

I think.

I'm better with the abstract math than actual calculations... oh that was fun in HS.

@mugaliens: You're going to hell, which I don't believe in, for making jokes that bad.

Ok, I think I understand that :tongue2:

I have too much catching up to do in maths.

Me too it seems! :rofl:

I just realized that I got the exact 1000th post on this thread!

Either you need new glasses or you're posting in an alternate PF. I see #1018 on that post.

See "cross product" and "vector calculus". The joke was a play on the language used when taking the cross product of two vectors [or in this case, calculating the magnitude of that value].

I remember asking about cross products before taking calculus, and no one would give me a straight answer.

Wow...

@jtbell: Sleeep... sleeeeeeeeeeep.


@ivan: I feel like an idiot, and probably should. I just saw, "sin" and... assumed. Back to the PF library for me!

 

[mugaliens]

Key input, folks: If you don't get it, it's not a joke, but only not to you. It's probably still funny to many others who do get it. There's a word, at the tip of my mind, which simply means, "I may not get it, but they do, and I respect the fact that they get a joke and I have enough composure to respect that."

Sadly, that "word" remains as elusive as the gold in that mystic land of S. America.

Oh, heh, I thought you were just joking around. Yeah, that was a specific reference to cross products.

 

[mugaliens]

As for "lame" jokes, the Dick Van Dyke Show is available on Hulu. I've been busting a gut for the last week. Several hundred episodes available, so it'll take months, if not years. :)

Just... Do it. Re-discover the roots of American humor.

I wish, but no... I'm learning math later in life... it seems easier now than it did when I was younger... makes no sense, but there it is.

@mugs: Preference? Taste? Restraint? Pornography? Leaf? Weasel? Lattice?

In the end it is a 3x3 matrix multiplication.

Ahhh,..straight brackets signify magnitude of objects ?

 

[Lancelot59]

Ahhh,..straight brackets signify magnitude of objects ?

The proper notation is actually this:
||vector||
It's also referred to as the norm of the vector. The single lines just mean absolute value, or determinant if your variable is a matrix.

However
||vector1||*||vector2||*sin(angle)
is what's called the dot product of two vectors.

 

[Ivan Seeking]

dot product of two vectors.

The magnitude of the cross product of two vectors...

 

[Lancelot59]

The magnitude of the cross product of two vectors...

...How?

(1,2,3) dot (4,5,6) is 32

(1,2,3) cross (4,5,6) is (-3,6,-3), the norm of which is root(54).

Better be, that's what I paid for this time..

 

[FtlIsAwesome]

Well then, why'd you pay for a guy?

And what'd you do if it wasn't?

 

[Jimmy Snyder]

...How?

(1,2,3) dot (4,5,6) is 32

(1,2,3) cross (4,5,6) is (-3,6,-3), the norm of which is root(54).

$A \cdot B = |A||B| \cos \theta$
$|A \times B| = |A||B| \sin \theta$
Consider unit vectors i and j. The angle theta between them is 90 degrees, so cos theta is 0 and sin theta is 1.

A lame joke thread is incomplete without Florence Jenkins and McGonagall . Bad poetry and mangled opera go hand in hand with lame jokes.

For your viewing pleasure

I'm kind of impressed by Cosme McMoon's piano playing. It had to be hard to stay in synch with the interesting tempo of Jenkins' singing style. Too bad there's no recordings of her after her car wreck. As a result of the wreck, she was able to hit a higher 'F' note than she'd ever hit before (instead of suing the taxicab driver, she bought him a box of expensive cigars). Jenkins was a rather fascinating woman who sold out Carnegie Hall at the age of 76.

And what'd you do if it wasn't?

Tastes better with fava beans and cheap Chianti.

I'd demand a refund, what else..?

There's something about that women that is growing on me,...similar to a fungal infection.

I put a small speaker next to my birdfeeder, just out of curiosity about some things, ...the looks the birds have when I play them Mrs. Jenkins is pretty funny.

Just like people, they cock their heads and their eyes bug out .

" What...the...hell...is...that...? "

This is how it should sound. (There's just something about men in tuxedos laughing that gets to me.)

Aaawww man, that was beautiful...that's a sure sign that I know I'm getting old.

...I like opera...

Right...okay.
