@Rubah: I dont even know what that weird π sign means.


Maths is horrible. It used to be my friend and then it stabbed me in the back. Mechanics is so much easier. Physics is so much easier. As is Chemistry as is Biology.

After inventing my own mathematical theorem, I havent been very good at maths at all...

I think that's pi. It's rendered funny in the font she's using, or it's a different character which looks like pi.

[Vivisteiner]

pi? Is that some kind of fruit?






...Oh, I see.

I'm not good at math.

It just means that the angle whose tangent is Pi/2 is an infinitely large angle.

Sup, asymptotes? I like what you did with tan(90).

Whats the point?

Is it just for simplification or something?

Anywhere between Calc I and Calc II.

Because people need to differentiate amongst certain functions of a triangle. At this point, things are only as needlessly complicated as people can break them down without blowing up math. arc functions are just inverses.

Arc functions are inverses in a certain region; essentially, you'll limit the function to the necessary two regions that give you principal values. In the case of Sin and Tan, it is limited to quadrant I and IV. Cos is limited to QI and QII.

reeks of the arctangent.

sinh and cosh are fun.

Integral(1/(a² + u²))?

Pi is a vegetable. Just like Loony BoB.

it's alt+p, which I assume is pi. I don't know what else it would be.

Pasted from wikipedia: π
typed from keyboard: π

in a different font: π, π, π, π, π

[Tavrobel]

Too bad the first two symbols look nothing like what I've seen of Pi. The first two and the last one in a different font look like what one usually draws for Pi among the people I know. Drawing it any different makes it look too much like n.

I'm just kidding. You guys enjoy yourselves.

blame the eoff font then, idk?
