Usually, I include them in the calculuation. The critical points of her curves are... :-p :wink:

I'm sure after a few years of mathematics we will be able to build one using functions only, and also prove that it's a girl. :eek:

I'm not very good on my proofs.

Then allow me to suggest the following:
1)Wait until a *real* girl has a bad day.
2)Offer to help her with her math.
3)Ask her sensitive questions until she starts crying.

If you can't take it from there, proofs aren't your only problem. :smile:

I've been doing that. That's the only thing that's barely keeping me in. Of course, they've yet to ask me for help.

I was wondering if any of you were ever discouraged in math. I mean, you're sitting there in lecture and just feel like you're never going to get it. I haven't really had that happen, but I think it might sometime. How could you overcome that?

jk. just hang in there.

I've been doing some thinking on this and I believe you're right. I'm so screwed! :cry: :cry:
