Re: PuzzleWow, so nice of you. The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't. “It's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!” ― Richard Feynman “A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón #27 2012-08-24 10:41:24
Re: PuzzleI actually did not figure anything out. But weren't you the one who did respond. 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. #28 2012-08-24 10:48:51
Re: PuzzleBut you would think of me even if I weren't the one who posted that.

Re: PuzzleWell, statistically you are the one who answers most of my posts. I am not offended by what you did. 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. #30 2012-08-24 11:21:48
Re: PuzzleOkay then. The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't. “It's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!” ― Richard Feynman “A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón #31 2012-08-31 15:05:06
Re: PuzzleOkay...maybe it's just me or was the actual puzzle not posted here...? #32 2012-08-31 15:22:30

Re: Puzzle
You are not mistaken. The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't. “It's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!” ― Richard Feynman “A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón |
