Title: Math thread
Post by: trenzafeeds on Sat, 17 October 2015, 11:18:33: I just saw someone (I forget who) post on what's bothering you about a math problem they were having trouble with. I'm a bit of a math nerd myself, so I thought it might be nice to have a thread where we can post about math things and math we're struggling on. Personally I like helping other people with their math, although I'm not very good at it. :thumb:

Edit: Apparently this is the math joke thread now

Because 7 8 9.

- Hey dude why don't you try and integrate?

e^(x) replied:
- I can't :(

It's because seven is a registered six offender.

My calculus class started with 50 people in the beginning of the year, we're down to less than 20.

Sounds like fun :)) I'm not very far along in math, but I like to help where I can.

None, they have no function :p

:)) I must say that I did laugh out loud with that one. That was quite the burn.

I thought this was a math thread? You appear to be confusing (http://latex.codecogs.com/gif.latex?\bg_white&space;$\LaTeX) with latex.

Either way, body cavity searches are still painful without markup languages.

The url image link has the math included, so you just need to know: https://latex.codecogs.com/gif.latex?\bg_white&space;***put marked up math here*** but the only thing is to &space; for spaces.

And here's my joke: (https://latex.codecogs.com/gif.latex?\bg_white&space;\int&space;\frac{1}{cabin})

I get it. Heh.

Of course I've heard that joke a few times already though. :rolleyes: :)) :P

That's a really cool tip, thanks! Also like 4.5/10 on the joke.
