<<Emphasis added>> * The passages I've highlighted are the most telling as to why you shouldn't rush through your undergrad in 3 yrs...

You know, I think you know the answer we’d give. Enjoy your four years, experience other courses, talk with your professors about...

There's a curious parallel here. When great authors invent their characters and where they reside, they often find that the story...

@Hill I think that’s very insightful. It’s like we create/invent a game with rules on how to play it and then we discover strategies on...

Wouldn't it be correct to say that theorems are discovered, concepts and proofs are invented?

Why not pick simpler examples like ##\pi## or e? These constants have interesting properties and appear in unexpected places.

The magic of math is that we can use it to make predictions in many fields. When you say math hides what's going on in physics, it's...

Welcome to PF! Please take some time to read our site global guidelines (see link in my post signature below). In your simulations...

I guess it's a matter of perspective. Historically, we discovered real numbers first and derived the others by deleting an axiom. But...

You are summing to n not to infinity. Convergence doesn't come into play. A finite expansion will have a finite number of terms and in...

My understanding is that adding or strengthening an axiom produces these objects. They are in a sense odd edge cases that pop up when...

Doesn't this come from the series being finite binary expansion? Being finite it will sum to a finite number.

The bottom line is that computer systems can NEVER promise that your data will be safe. Try as they might, there will always be a...

There's a book on learning strategies called Make It Stick by Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roediger III, and Mark A. McDaniel. It distills...
