Re: Riemann hypothesisHello Oliver! "The physicists defer only to mathematicians, and the mathematicians defer only to God ..." - Leon M. Lederman #77 2006-08-02 17:17:28
Re: Riemann hypothesisI am not sure if anyone give this reference to the Millenium Problems: http://www.claymath.org/millennium/ "The physicists defer only to mathematicians, and the mathematicians defer only to God ..." - Leon M. Lederman #78 2006-08-03 00:12:05
Re: Riemann hypothesisoh yeah ricky, didnt think about that :p #79 2006-08-03 02:26:33

Re: Riemann hypothesisAnd I think Wikipedia is a place where you can understand complicated maths. IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #81 2006-08-03 02:45:30

Re: Riemann hypothesisWikipedia provides great reference for information. But it really only makes sense once you understand the topic. Don't get me wrong, it may help. But you are better off looking for a book or site which is meant to teach. "In the real world, this would be a problem. But in mathematics, we can just define a place where this problem doesn't exist. So we'll go ahead and do that now..." #83 2006-08-03 04:02:41
Re: Riemann hypothesis
Yes. You're right. IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #84 2006-08-03 07:32:43
Re: Riemann hypothesis
I agree - and I think it is a problem for Wikipedia. I have noticed articles that were simple and useful become more and more like something only a researcher would read.

Re: Riemann hypothesisBut give them time. As soon as they are done making articles such as Fictional Brands in South Park, I'm sure they'll go back to touch up the important ones "In the real world, this would be a problem. But in mathematics, we can just define a place where this problem doesn't exist. So we'll go ahead and do that now..." #86 2006-08-03 09:10:04

Re: Riemann hypothesisI'm telling you, they have everything. The best was Steven Colbert. He has a satirical news show on Comedy Central, the Colbert Report (you don't pronounce either 't'). On his show last night, he said in the intro in which he summarizes what will be in the show, "Then I give a report on wikipedia. You can read about it on wikipedia in 10 minutes." "In the real world, this would be a problem. But in mathematics, we can just define a place where this problem doesn't exist. So we'll go ahead and do that now..." #89 2013-03-22 19:55:36
Re: Riemann hypothesisHi; In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. |
