MATH vs ENGLISH (or Language)

[Bohemianne]

We need both, but which is more necessary in life? Why?
Choose one. Let the pwnage begin! 😀

 

[milagros317]

Are you trying to bait me? 😛
Both are necessary, but math is more beautiful. 😀

LOL! I know you can't resist... 😱

For example, who is not astonished by the beauty of Stokes' Theorem?

In differential geometry, Stokes' theorem (also called the generalized Stokes' theorem) is a statement about the integration of differential forms on manifolds, which both simplifies and generalizes several theorems from vector calculus. Stokes' theorem says that the integral of a differential form ω over the boundary of some orientable manifold Ω is equal to the integral of its exterior derivative dω over the whole of Ω. Or, in mathematical notation:

LMAO! I knew it. I'm your advocate. 😀 😀 😱

Thank you. 😀

I'm going to say English. We had to communcate with each other before we needed to count.

English is less beautiful. 😀

Math. It does even the algorithm of our………....................digestion. 😀

Glad you appreciate mathematics, Bohemianne. 😀

While I am not as hardcore as you in computations, I do love math [especially visual math].

I am very glad to hear that. 😀

LOL! You remind me of finding the area by Integration... (and it gets worst to find volume in 3-dimensional plane). 😱

 

[milagros317]

I love finding volumes in three dimensions with a triple integral. Especially in spherical coordinates. 😀

Ooooooooooo and also hyperbolic! I love those stuff too in the past, even though they are hard. 😱

 

[milagros317]

And don't forget Jacobi's theorem which lets you invent a new coordinate system just for the problem you are working on. 😀

^ You mean this? 😱

Yes, although that is not the exact form in which I teach it. 😀

Bwahahaha... of course I just googled that one...

Yes, I understand. 😀
It is also called "change-of-variable formula for multiple integrals."

Aside from Calculus, what else do you teach in Math?

 

[milagros317]

Aside from Calculus, what else do you teach in Math?

Discrete Mathematics, Linear Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Complex Analysis, and Real Analysis.

 

[Bohemianne]

Pwned! Now I understand why Math is life (to you). And which is your favorite... I assume Calculus?

Teaching Abstract Algebra is my favorite. 😀
Here is the book that I use:

Thank you for the link, Mils. I used to love my subject College Algebra in the past... Then came Mechanics, Analytic Geometry, Stength of Materials... 😀
