Re: Solving Word Problems
Hi soroban;
Rule #7 rules!!!
Thats what powers Eddingtons monkey. If you type long enough and fast enough not only will you solve the word problem but every other problem, even ones that haven't been thought of yet.
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.
