Re: The Rule of Signs
Hi MathsisFun;
So far, so good. The Descartes rule of signs is neat. Can ya give the inventor a mention? He was such a genius.
No one seems to use this in practice anymore. That's a shame, because it is so powerful and so simple.
Well done!
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.
