When it's 2:03 every number is prime too kekw

old oak
#

All numbers are prime, but some are more prime than others

earnest flax

(0) is a prime

earnest flax

Tfw my point is empty

1 should be a prime, otherwise Spec F_1 won't make sense, right

Is this self study in some sense?

vivid halo
#

I mean yeah

solid yarrow
#

How does your self study look like?

#

Do you just read stuff and skip proofs, exercises?

#

I'm curious

vivid halo
#

I mean I mostly read a lot of papers

#

And take a lot of notes in LaTeX

#

Usually amounts to rewriting some parts of papers and trying to improve exposition/combine things

#

Usually have some examples in mind or things I want to prove

vernal token
vivid halo
#

mostly for myself but they eventually turn into papers or whatever

#

sometimes share them with people who are interested

last time i had an interesting tought was a geometrical progression with geometrical figures instead of numbers, which the area stays the same but the sides are added by one with each corresponding term.

anyone know whats the difference between the green and the red book of mathematical problems

the only prof i ever hated was my mechanics prof

he would not shut up about his bs startups when he was supposed to be teaching physics, also he wrote the textbook and it’s dense with errors bleak

did the startups succeed?

#

that would be very not boring

honest python
#

Notation question: normally when we write functions we can specify their types by writing, say, f: R^n -> R. If I have a function that takes in an arbitrary number of arguments, how would I write it?

river moon
#

there's no such thing

#

if you want you can come up with something like the set of sequences that represent your "arbitrary number of arguments"

#

and then define a function from that set to whatever

honest python
#

maybe it's a bit of an abuse of notation :p

river moon
#

there's still finite number of arguments there

honest python
#

yeah

#

finite, but arbitrary

river moon
#

n arguments isn't arbitrary anymore, it's n

honest python
#

fair, but normally when you write f:R^n-> R you expect n to be fixed or at least known a priori

#

I'm trying to hint that "you should ignore this", sorta like _ in some programming languages

old oak
river moon
#

yes and it's easy to recursively define a set of functions with at most n arguments once you fix n

#

but it's hard to make it a function that can take both finite number of arguments and infinte number of them

old oak
#

Yeah, my suggestion isn't actually the way I'd recommend doing that, it would make more sense to consider a family of functions from R^n into R over varying n

#

And establish some properties of that family that are independent of n

river moon
#

I was just responding to gndcatthimc

honest python
#

fair fair haha

old oak
#

Sure, I was just clarifying that my suggestion isn't actually worth using

#

Just that you could do it if you were really determined to do so for some reason

river moon
#

at least in C++ it just makes enough different functions with as many arguments as you needed

old oak
#

Python does let you define a function with unspecified arguments

#

But functions in programming aren't really quite the same as functions in mathematics

old oak
#

Possibly already has

torn orchid
#

What order of math regarding calculus , and advanced maths like analysis and combitronics will you suggest; I know like before calc its algebra 1, algebra 2, then geometry, but is there a given order afterwards

old oak
#

It branches out in different directions

glass peak
#

In the UK for example, and I think a lot of Europe, you just do “maths” and it’s all mixed

torn orchid
glass peak
#

Typically after your standard highschool maths assortment you’d do like linear algebra analysis, differential equations and multi variable calculus then maybe like abstract algebra, complex analysis and topology but there isn’t really a set order to do these things

#

They’re all interwoven but also kinda independent, you’ll get different things and different approaches depending on what you already know

neat lintel
#

it's bigger than the number of possible things that can happen in the universe

tawdry pecan
#

wait how many is the universe

#

like im not surprised in the slightest

#

but thats an extreme understatement of how big this number is imo

neat lintel
#

yeah

neat lintel
#

the number of outcomes is actually about skewes number lol

tawdry pecan
#

oh and for the record, thats how many 1's this program halts with:
>>-[-[[->+>+<<]>[-<+>]>-]+<<<<]

neat lintel
#

i once invented a large number

tawdry pecan
#

about

tawdry pecan
#

yes really

neat lintel
#

BB(6) found?!

tawdry pecan
#

LOL pretty much

neat lintel
#

its stupid

#

but funny

tawdry pecan
#

well no theres definitely a bigger number that you could make with that small a program, but the pattern would be unintelligible

#

ill check it out

neat lintel
#

yeah

#

ofc

tawdry pecan
#

I can try to explain how it works, it kind of simulates a cellular automata of sorts

neat lintel
#

my number is bigger than that number

tawdry pecan
#

yea

neat lintel
#

proof is easy

#

u saw it? lol

tawdry pecan
#

mine is small sauce compared to most numbers in googology

tawdry pecan
#

ill watch ur video before i explain it

#

yeah that is crazy big @neat lintel

#

very clever too i like it

neat lintel
#

yeah

tawdry pecan
#

alright and now to explain

#

imagine you have a 5

#

and it splits into [n-1][n-1] (they are next to each other not multiplied or smth)

#

so 5 ->44

neat lintel
#

ooh

#

cool

tawdry pecan
#

but you can only split if you arent blocked

#

so if you keep going you end up with 43211

#

and the 2's bubble to the top to become 2 more 1s

#

43211

#

43121

#

43112

#

431111

neat lintel
#

ok

#

so now ur applying this to like 1000?

tawdry pecan
#

well not quite

#

only to like 254

neat lintel
#

ah

#

why not 255

#

did u make this?

tawdry pecan
#

makes the program smaller , yeah

neat lintel
#

how

#

- vs --

tawdry pecan
#

well its not that simple

neat lintel
#

oh

tawdry pecan
#

look at the program again

#

-[-[[->+>+<<]>[-<+>]>-]+<<<<]

#

the first is to start the loop

neat lintel
#

oh

#

yeah

tawdry pecan
#

the second is placed there because of golfing fuckery

neat lintel
#

and its just crazy recursive?

#

i tried to understand the biggest number on googology once

tawdry pecan
#

yeah, even 6 is just incomputable

#

5 is just barely

neat lintel
#

huh

tawdry pecan
#

I mean you could have just spammed tree or smth

neat lintel
#

i failed

tawdry pecan
#

which one would that be?

neat lintel
#

also what is the largest one actually i found like 5 contenders

tawdry pecan
#

yeah some of the definitions are super confusing

neat lintel
#

rayo is like 3rd tho right

tawdry pecan
tawdry pecan
neat lintel
#

i learned some set theory to understand rayo

#

i wonder

#

now take my number

#

what about SKI combinator calculus?

tawdry pecan
#

YES

neat lintel
#

oh wait thats loader

theres something with like, oracle busy beavers

oh yeah def

yeah

#

like what if pascal's triangle but with canceling out

tawdry pecan

i just came up with a cellular automaton and decided to brinfuck it

neat lintel

that should stabilize

yeah theres stuff i could try, its been on my mind the past week or so, so im just kinda stewing it

neat lintel
#

How did you still have the motivation to study even tho like your prof is like that

neat lintel
#

Anyone know good tips to improve at math and get my grade up and all my other subjects like just improve in general my weakest subject is math and I study all of my subject every day but I still do so shi

#

Use the help channels

wispy wolf
#

remember to take breaks and stuff tho. sleeping can make you memorise information better too. and study what you dont understand the most first, or the hardest

#

you can also try practice exams and papers, textbooks and yea

#

oh and also if you get your past math papers or somethin

#

review what you failed to do

#

and take notes of things you either need help with, need to study, etc. something like that

#

there are many resources and youtube too. i also recommend you to study on a workbook rather than online because it helps to memorise information better

#

stay hydrated too and dont always overwork yourself. first plan your study sessions and topics and probably stick to it

neat lintel
#

we can do it tmr if u want, im free

#

perhaps this: one half is a ratio. every chicken gets has two eggs.

#

every dog wants 4 eggs.

#

distribute 1 chicken's eggs among 4 dogs.

#

i dont knowww.... someone

#

say this:

#

two people make a couple

#

every 4 people gets 1 cake.

#

2 cakes per couple.

#

WHAT its wrong bruh

#

2 couples per cake.

#

EAZYYYYY

neat lintel
#

It is not well defined

grand pecan
#

it gives a unitless number no?

#

in that case it makes sense. the ratio of 1/2 to 1/4 is 2:1, and the 2 is just pointless for conceptuallization without units

There is no magical technique or method.

Wake up, wash your face. Don't start chatting or scrolling. Open your book and study.

How can I apply what i've learned in math? Like (for example) I go online and learn about linear algebra and read books about mathematical proofs and logic but never use them, I'm too young and inexperienced to get a job that makes me do math every day but I really want to use what I've learned

alright then, i guess ill just keep learning until i finally get to use what i know

Many times to no success, maybe i'm aiming too high by tring to make engines with Vulkan or OpenGl

neat lintel

#

it just feels so tideous when i just focus

I tried that as well... It takes way too many fucking lines to draw a triangle

#

vulkan in rust takes like 500-600 for a triangle, its crazy

gleaming verge
#

Do you know what could be simpler?

#

Like something to ease in to it

neat lintel
#

Idk

#

When i was doing it in rust I just used winit and softbuffer.

Winit to create a window, and softbuffer to draw to it using an array of pixels

#

Was able to do most things without having to worry about everything the GPU does

#

There's SDL2/3 which makes doing graphics easy. I think its available for any language

#

To be honest I think game dev is my best bet, it's something i find interesting and i can use what i've learned to make things that i can then play

but the one qualm with game dev is level design

Are there conditions in which differentiating f, solving for inverse of f', and then integrating again wouldn't hold for computing the inverse of f?

leaden torrent
#

like have you tried this on an example

#

like youre trying to solve [f^{-1} = \int (f')^{-1}] right?

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

in other words, you want [(f^{-1})' = (f')^{-1}] up to a constant, i.e. when do derivative and inverse commute

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

to solve this, it might be useful to know the fact [(f^{-1})'(x) = \frac{1}{f'(f^{-1}(x))}] for nonzero values

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

in other words, you want $(f')^{-1} = \frac{1}{f' \circ f^{-1}}$ which is an ODE problem

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

(and one that AFAICT does not have nice solutions)

tawdry mantle
#

Would it be a sufficient explanation to say that a system of linear equations cannot have 2 solutions because the solutions represent an intersection at either one point (one solution), a line/plane (infinite solutions) or no intersection at all (no solution)?

rocky galleon
leaden torrent
#

idk what standard of rigour your course requires

#

but i would not consider this a formal proof

tawdry mantle
#

Freshman year linear algebra but I can’t think of anything else

#

Undergrad

leaden torrent
#

heres a hint: suppose you have a system $Ax = b$ with two distinct solutions $u, v$

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

so $Au = Av = b$

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

note that $b = \frac{b+b}{2}$

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

and therefore $b = \frac{b+b}{2} = \frac{Au + Av}{2}$

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

can you use this to conclude the existence of a third solution, not equal to u or v?

tawdry mantle
#

I don’t think so 👀

leaden torrent
#

$\frac{Au + Av}{2} = A\left(\frac{u+v}{2}\right) = b$

fathom swallowBOT
#

Namington

leaden torrent
#

does writing it like this help?

tawdry mantle
#

So you’re asking if I can state whether something like Aw=b exists with the equation you gave

leaden torrent
#

where w isn't equal to u or v, yes

#

the point of the strategy is that we're trying to show, if you have at least 2 solutions, you can find a third solution

hazy tapir
#

can anyone help me with matrix?

leaden torrent
#

(and you can repeat this process arbitrarily to argue you can find infinitely many solutions)

#

in other words, its impossible to have exactly 2 solutions

Imposter syndrome is everywhere but I see it the worst in Math/CS communities.

While imposter syndrome exists in Medicine, there's many recognized divisions in levels of medicine, for example nurses and physicians, then even within physicians, such as general surgery vs neurosurgery vs pediatric neurosurgery.

However we all just do "math" and everyone's a "software engineer" and there's always someone better, making one feel stupid often.

Imagine stating all of the formalities of diff. geom before integrating, on R^n

dense matrix

#

That was a joke

dense matrix
#

and like imagine saying; divergence of B, well exteriorderivative on the 1-form because there's an isomorphism given by the metric with covectors and vectors

dense matrix
#

trivial

#

how could he understand lol

sharp hearth
#

Yes, he learnt de Rham cohomology along the way.

dense matrix
#

oh ok

#

I'm doing the topic btw I'm new to it

#

I found out yesterday all of this(just 1-forms isomorphic to vectors etc)

dense matrix
sharp hearth
#

Yes, that's what I said.

#

I think the problem for him is that the definitions of curl and divergence in Cartesian coordinates were treated as God-given. But they're actually intrinsically tied to the Euclidean metric and the corresponding Hodge star operator.

#

But what had been done in calculus until then didn't depend so much on the Euclidean metric.

#

The reason why this is problematic is that, very often, vector calculus problems are easier to solve in polar or spherical coordinates, where the gradient, curl and divergence have different expressions from the ones in Cartesian coordinates. But, if your definition of gradient, curl and divergence is the Cartesian expressions, then you will have a hard time realizing this.

@latent edge your project's main menu looks weird on phone

Just wanted to tell yk

solar bronze
# leaden torrent like youre trying to solve \[f^{-1} = \int (f')^{-1}\] right?

No, moreso as an intermediate step in solving for the inverse of something else where some $f$ has no known inverse, but $f'$ does, so my idea is to compute the inverse of $f'$ and integrate this inverse, then exploit the relation of area of inverse to the area of the inverse of the inverse to compute the inverse of $f$.

#

Seems like the identity you gave, however, relating the derivative of $f$ inverse to the derivative of $f$ composed with the inverse of $f$ conveniently provides some way forward potentially.

If i have 5 cookies and I divide it among 1 person, that 1 person gets 5 cookies, 5/1=5. If I do 5/0 there's 0 people to give cookies, therefore my answer is 0, but I still have 5 cookies, so my actual answer is 0 with a remainder of 5

#

i'm just kidding idk what the fuck i'm talking about

rocky shuttle
#

If I have 5 cookies and I divide it among 1/2 person, then that 1/2 person gets 10 cookies, 5/(1/2) = 10.

if I have 5 cookies and eat them all, I have no cookies.

whats the correlation

what are frame perfects

#

tell me

buoyant hollow

you basically said it

frame perfects are inputs you need to make perfectly and they only have 1 frame margin of error

yes

and it changes with 60hz and 144hz
