First, if you are angry enough to think you might have done damage to a house, you need to seriously consider anger management. ##-## @Vanadium 50

. . . is anyone here pedantic enough . . .
How do we measure that?
Whatever the SI unit of pedantry is, I'm sure a different unit is in common use in the USA. ##-## @Vanadium 50

I HAVE to include these two of favorites of mine even if they are my own:

it is unfortunate that you "understand" this since it is totally wrong.

I recognize every single word in that post, but strung together in that particular order, I can't make any sense out of them at all.

Even though it was directed at me, I still have to appreciate it.

Of course, if the student has never seen a determinant before, this is as useful as a Siamese-Swahili Dictionary. ("Once you know one, you can teach yourself the other!")

@Vanadium 50 (I think that he may be not-so-secretly one of the Vanir) is a very witty guy ##\dots##

"One of the Vanir" is an anagram of "Not heaven for I".
What the X? Did you just notice that on autopilot, or is that a known thing? or maybe you really are one of the Vanir? and if so, maybe you'd rather be one of the Aesir?
For what it's worth, I had determinants years before knowing anything about cross-products.
I'm starting to become curious about you. :wink:
