AI Thread Summary
To visit Chris or John, the total amount needed includes the debts owed: $3 to Chris and $5 to John, totaling $8. Additionally, transportation costs must be factored in, but the exact amount for transport is unspecified and depends on the mode of travel. The discussion highlights that the total expenditure varies based on the choice of whom to visit. Without knowing the transport cost, a precise total cannot be calculated. Therefore, the final amount required for the trip remains uncertain until the transport expenses are determined.

I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...

Thread 'Fermat's Last Theorem'

Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665).

Thread 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta.
