I was learning how to code too

buoyant trail
#

Alright. Well then; seeing as you learned relativity when you were only 9, you must know it quite well, right?

visual edge
#

Probably

buoyant trail
#

Suppose from a point in an inertial frame, two particles are shot out simultaneously in orthogonal directions, with constant velocity c/2 (relative to our inertial reference frame). What are their speeds relative to eachother?

visual edge
#

0.661

#

Do you want me to include c or not

buoyant trail
#

I think that that's implied

visual edge
#

0.661c

inner pulsar
#

sqrt(7)/4 c

#

To be precise

#

*My dog typed this

That's u

1 sec i need to on mspaint

buoyant trail
# visual edge 0.661

I'm going to be honest, this was so fast, and your delay to explain your work is taking so long, that I feel as if you had to have just used some online calculator to figure this out.

#

It winds up being correct; maybe it's just that I'm not a physicist, but I can not do those computations that fast.

visual edge
#

This took me longer to write on mspaint

#

than it did to figure it out

buoyant trail
#

Could you not have used latex?

visual edge
#

im too lazy

#

i become productive

visual edge
buoyant trail
#

Using MS paint for this feels like more effort than texing.

visual edge
#

thats why its funny

buoyant trail
#

Reading that feels like more work than actually working it out myself.

visual edge
#

Btw am I right

inner pulsar
#

Yeah

buoyant trail

#

Good I thought I confused a prism for a cube again

buoyant trail
#

Jesus fucking christ; am I just an idiot who needs more than one minute with pen and paper to do these sorts of computations?

buoyant trail
#

I mean, it's a relatively easy problem, but 2 minutes still feels fast to me.

well it might be doable because I haven't really been to something calculusy yet

what is a function

It's not important for now; you'll get to it when you get to it.

why is a function related to graphs?

can y'all back me up

I'm scared

#

this guy apparently did this when he was 8

and he asked me the question

#

I couldn't do it

#

do u understand any of this?

buoyant trail
#

I understand it.

timid flume
#

😭

#

how can I understand it

buoyant trail
#

Don't try.

#

Solving qartic equations is a weird use of time.

#

Just focus on the book I gave you.

timid flume
#

alright

#

but he's 18 and he did this (logically someone who completed high school)

#

I'm definitely not gonna be able to do that

inner pulsar
#

You just said he did it when he was 8

timid flume
#

he told me he *was able to do it when he was 8

visual edge
#

don't worry about me just focus on page 60

thorny folio
#

god, you are begging for attention bravo

drifting wasp
#

Why are we giving attention then

timid flume
#

because it's infinity (GET IT? ecksddddd infinity? You're name? ecksddddd ecksddddd ecksddddd )

drifting wasp
timid flume
#

I should do that

#

alright I go studying bye bye

thorny folio
#

btw usap, why did you try to answer the integral guy in the other channel?

drifting wasp
#

You want to learn calculus early? Learn your pre calc or whatever it's called there, lots of trigonometry, basic logs and exponentials

thorny folio
#

you havent learned calc

timid flume
#

and try to understand what it means

#

but to no avail

thorny folio
#

thats good, but dont give him advice on what he needs to do

drifting wasp
#

Yeah

timid flume
#

k

timid flume
#

hey guys

#

@tame lynx @pear @itsf @wary kindle @etc...

#

can you take a look at this and find the flaw or where I'm going wrong

thorny folio
#

I'm not gonna read the whole thing, i don't have time for this

#

but i can give it a quick look

#

i'm very confused

#

you define a sequence (f_n are not functions btw, theyre just numbers)

#

then you seem to "suppose" that you can evaluate the terms in a certain amount of time

#

and conclude that you can "create a boundary on the number line"

#

doesn't make any sense to me

#

"Orius(A)" is not a number

#

because your sequence diverges

inner pulsar
#

Well for one, computing each fn (A) requires an amount of work that grows faster than any finite bound, so the whole bounded computational duration thing is just wrong.

thorny folio
#

I suggest you stick to the book

inner pulsar
#

Also, I think you forgot to fill in something

#

“For example, describes unbounded growth…”

tame lynx
#

oh brother, I'm scared to open it

#

.docx 😭

thorny folio
#

yeah i mean, it just doesnt make sense

#

no offense though

tame lynx
#

lots of fancy words to open with, not a good sign, the document is remarkably well formated given it's ms word

#

game over.. 😦

timid flume
#

mmmmmmmmm

#

but

#

if for each function (for example f1)

#

it takes half the time

tame lynx
#

one tiny remark about this

#

it is not up to you to decide whether something is novel

timid flume
#

yea chat gpt wrote that, I just did the equations

tame lynx
#

you'd do a lot better job to retain the reader if you wrote in a more neutral manner

thorny folio
#

damn

tame lynx
#

oh, did you add a reference to gpt at the end?

timid flume
tame lynx
#

nope, you didn't

timid flume
#

uh uh

tame lynx
#

plagiarism is bad.. mkay

#

fortunately the text isn't too long

timid flume
#

if each function (A up-arrow-fn number of arrows)

thorny folio
#

I'm not understanding something, why can you say each "function" can be evaluated i a certain given time

#

that you chose

tame lynx
#

there is no such thing as specific infinite value 😭

timid flume
#

yea but like

inner pulsar
#

Also Orius(A) never converges to any number

timid flume
#

it converges to time

#

so it ends

thorny folio
#

why?

timid flume
#

because 1/2 + 1/4 +.. = 1

tame lynx
#

when I read this Im thinking to myself why not just take a really fast growing exponential function

#

it ticks the box

thorny folio
#

right, but what makes you say you can evaluate them in a chosen time??

timid flume
thorny folio
#

why?

timid flume
#

so u only go to the next when you finish the time

#

because for converging

#

hmmm why

#

wait why

#

no but

#

uhhhh

#

theoretically it can depend

#

instead of time think about distance

#

there's a company that gives u a task of reaching 1 metre

#

to move however, you have to complete equations

#

Each equation gets you half way there

thorny folio
#

i know the series converge.

timid flume
#

yea but the value diverges

tame lynx
#

knuth's up arrow is well defined for natural numbers

timid flume
inner pulsar
timid flume
#

but it does end

#

that's why infinity ends

thorny folio
#

....

tame lynx
#

what does this mean?

#

can I only calculate the functions at lunch time or smth?

thorny folio
#

You don't understand what i'm trying to tell you. What makes you say that each "function" can be evaluated in some time?

timid flume
#

axiom of choice, I say each function takes half the time

inner pulsar
timid flume
#

if it ends doesnt it settle on a single number

#

well it's infinite in value but

#

ends

tame lynx
#

ok so this is a big problem

timid flume
timid flume
thorny folio
#

that's not how it works

tame lynx
# timid flume How

let's assume your process is well defined, what you have effectively said that ANY such process completes in 1 second

#

clearly that's not true

inner pulsar
thorny folio
timid flume
timid flume
#

u can take any number to start with and any time to end with

tame lynx
#

why not 0 time, then? choice completes in an instant

inner pulsar
timid flume
inner pulsar
#

So, it isn’t a number in R

thorny folio
#

-1 seconds why not?

timid flume
inner pulsar
timid flume
#

yes

#

but it should end

inner pulsar
#

So, it cant be in R, since it doesn’t even have a fixed value

tame lynx
#

if A > 1, then Orius (A), assuming it's well defined, is unbounded, or in analysis lingo, the limit is +infinity

#

so what's the point of introducing this notation to start with

timid flume
#

okay

#

to grow large

tame lynx
#

exp(n) grows large too

inner pulsar
#

Search up what Thomsons lamp is

#

@timid flume

timid flume
tame lynx
#

why not

#

only 0^0 is a problem

timid flume
#

u can but I don't like it

#

it's just 1

tame lynx
inner pulsar
timid flume
# inner pulsar So, you agree?

maybe.. I'm not sure it doesn't have a reason not to end in real numbers because everything is calculated with a natural number

tame lynx
#

you don't know this

thorny folio
#

The point is, you can't compute your sequence of f_n in a finite amount of time, simply because it diverges

tame lynx
#

not when A <= 1

timid flume
tame lynx
#

that's not a property of the function, it's just generic nonsense, sry 😦

timid flume
#

hmmmm

thorny folio
tame lynx
#

more wordsoup

#

undefined notions, no references, nothing..so bascially wordsoup

inner pulsar
tame lynx
#

when you define a function, the very first thing you do is declare its domain AND codomain

#

since you are talking about limits, you can only mean its codomain is R

timid flume
#

if f0 = A^A
then f1 = A {^f0} A
and f2 = A {^f1} A
and fn+1 = A {^fn} A
where Tn = 1/ 2^n+1
so if T = 1 second, f0 completes in 0.5s , f1 only starts when 0.5s is over and f1 takes 0.25s
And f2 takes so and so... till 1s is reached

tame lynx
#

but then you can't calculate it for ANY real number

timid flume
#

alright say natural numbers

#

only natural numbers >1

#

for both A and T

inner pulsar
#

fn (A) diverges to +infinity, so the limit of fn (A) as n approaches infinity doesn’t exist in real numbers.

timid flume
#

but n approaches T

timid flume
#

and when it does, the value goes up

timid flume
tame lynx
#

Let's assume that somehow, someway, this function can be computed in the way you describe. What is the point of it? What problem are you solving?

inner pulsar
thorny folio
inner pulsar
#

n approaches infinity is what u said

timid flume
timid flume
#

the second one takes even faster time

inner pulsar
timid flume
#

and third one even faster

timid flume
thorny folio
timid flume
#

hmmm why not

inner pulsar
#

No, you’re definition of Orius is wrong, since fn (A) diverges to +inf

tame lynx
#

this sounds like something that could be proved..wink wink 🙂

#

thorny folio
#

Correct me if I'm wrong @timid flume but you tried to prove you can "compute infinity" in a finite amount of time. In doing so, you proved anything at all can be computed in a finite amount of time.

tame lynx
#

I don't know why I'm bothering but, you're not getting attention with this sort of text from anyone

#

when people introduce novel ideas, an important part of their work is demonstrate technique

tame lynx
#

your text only contains claims after claims, there is very little exposition at the start

cosmic trail

well we don't matter

timid flume

not really attention but

tame lynx
#

we're just some random dudes in a discord chat

timid flume
#

I don't know what's wrong

#

or where's wrong

tame lynx
#

you haven't proved anything

inner pulsar
#

fn (A) diverges to +infinity, so the limit of fn (A) as n approaches infinity doesn’t exist in real numbers.

cosmic trail
tame lynx

you've written a lot of symbols in an array that means very little

there's too much to type out, you need formal math training

cosmic trail
# timid flume Hmm

it sounds like you're invested in the subject, so keep going! :D

It’s almost* impossible for anyone with a high school education to come up with a concept that revolutionises math

tame lynx

cosmic trail
timid flume
#

Hmm

#

Alright

tame lynx
#

let me just say one thing tho

#

you're taking this very well

#

a math crank is very resentful whenever their "work" is criticised at all

timid flume
#

I see

#

it's not like I had a high expectation, but was just seeing if it was actually right

tame lynx
#

with no proofs, there is no way to tell

#

and like I said, you haven't even formulated a problem which you are attempting to solve

#

there is nothing to evaluate

timid flume
#

well

#

alright

#

I'll try to see this later when I actually am something in math

tame lynx
#

that sort of binary off/on thinking won't do you much good either

#

but it's the age I suppose, just keep learning what you can where you can

#

if you are really interested in math, look for a seat in a uni

# timid flume Research Paper- Orius.docx

Okay, so honestly, I don't have anything that can read .docx files. I can try to convert it to a .pdf or a .odt or something of the sort; but I don't think it's worthwhile. Maybe I'd come up with more or different criticisms than aL did; but at this point, with you having learned the utmost basics of mathematical proof just yesterday and working through Lang's highschool book right now, I also don't think that a research paper is the best use of your time.

visual edge
#

I guess I'll ask him a question later and if he gets it right I'll know

drifting wasp
#

I'm reading the paper and I am thinking of quitting because the introduction is just a word salad from my perspective

halcyon merlin
#

Every number is a concept from a axiomatic framework. Especially numbers like pi, which are really equivalence classes of cauchy sequences etc etc etc

#

Infinity is a number when working in the extended reals or in $\mathbb{P}(\mathbb{R})$

ionic mortarBOT
#

Jehare

halcyon merlin
#

A better use of your time would be learning math from a academic standpoint, finising highschool quickly is a valid idea, to then get into university quickly. You wouldn't be the only younger person at university.
But it's important to get into university and learn the basics before attempting any advanced math.

#

Oh and if you choose to ignore me and do more writing, learn LaTeX cause a docx file is horrible

#

-conventionally, capital letters are matrices, sets, functions, etc, not just numbers in R. I'd change A to like a or just x

-the concept of executing calculations at a certain time without time being used in the equation is not something you need to do. This is solving a practical issue (limited computational time) with a fully theoretic approach of having infinite steps in finite time. You could just say it's a process with countable steps or something, the time-thing doesn't do anything here

halcyon merlin
#

So again, my advice would be to put all your motivation in finishing highschool and getting unto university, and once you've been at university for a few years revisit these thoughts and start writing serious math.

timid flume
#

hmm

If you want a basic overview on what you need to know its the perspectives, calculus, differential equations, discrete maths, linear algebra, probability statistics, analysis, abstract algebra, differential equations, logic, topology and geometry to be decent

visual edge
#

Do this for 4 hours a week for 34 weeks or 9ish months (rounded up)

#

Then we can get into the normal stuff

#

Like topoly, euclidean planes etc its elementary stuff

halcyon merlin
#

I don't think first order predicate logic is what this man needs most at this point

visual edge
final bolt
#

I think right now the focus should be on high school stuff, from what I read op needs to develop more mathematic rigor, and be more experienced in math, I get the feeling that they are rushing math and learning fancy words without knowing what they mean

#

You need to have a good foundation

#

Math is like a beautiful statue, it’s very pretty to look at, but without good fondation it will crumble sooner or later, so get good basics to not let it crumble and appreciate its beauty even more

halcyon merlin
#

You don't learn first order predicate logic as intro to academic math

tame lynx
#

not the ins and outs of it, but it's on the menu for our first year students

halcyon merlin
#

Here logic as a course in the first year is a computer science course, very much optional for math students. Introductory math courses ofcourse explain universal and existential quantifier and basic logic operators like implies, and, or, xor, but that's like 30 minutes of lecture

#

Learning first order systems and godels incompleteness and such is a very different thing

Any lack of motivation is likely due to you being a dick. "Oh look at me, I know more than you, 13 year old who's trying to learn math! Look at how good I am at predicate logic!" is... not exactly an encouraging way to speak to someone.

hi

timid flume
#

I listened to many rage getting and unjustice related documentaries and movies

#

so that I'm soo pumped up to focus for a whole month

timid flume
#

uh

#

I realized I wouldn't be able to read it all and understand it if I went on this pace with this mindset

urban valley
#

i think you should focus on dedication instead of motivation just a consistent 1 - 2 hours a day is better then going all out for a month and getting burnt out

timid flume
#

Once school starts this is gonna be impossible

urban valley
#

i dont see how that coralates with going to school

timid flume
#

uh well there's 8 hours in school and some more in hope because of it

#

and then sleeping eating

#

that's it

urban valley
#

ok perfect you have 6 free hours

timid flume
#

life's not gonna give me another chance till a year

timid flume
#

It's impossible for me to stay focused with all the other things

#

because I hate school and I get un motivated because of it

urban valley
#

10 hours school 7 hours sleep 2 hours eating/ showering you have 5 free hours

timid flume
#

but during those

urban valley
#

like i said motivation doesnt matter dedication is better

timid flume
#

it's gonna be hard keeping on work

buoyant trail
urban valley
#

get a schedule and stick to it atleast 45 mins a day you wont see progress as fast but your core foundations will be built on top of that and you'll see alot of success down the line if you pursue math

timid flume
#

I'm preparing for staying motivated till a month and putting everything in, then taking 2-3 months of break and studying

#

here's the thing

#

if I do that

#

my holidays are wasted

#

I'll end up stuck in between

#

because the motivation won't be up for more than a month

urban valley
#

if i take 45 dollars from you will you throw away the rest of your 2000 dollars ?

#

just beacuse you spend 45 mins of your day on something not as fun doesnt mean your whole day is wasted

timid flume
urban valley
#

well its good that we werent talking about gambling but about studying

timid flume
#

alright but

#

the syllabus is simply too much

#

I won't be able to do it for like 1-2 years

#

if I keep 45 minutes a day

(Accounting for some days breaking the streak)

#

I personally don’t think so, doing a whole ass research paper just for trolling on discord seems like too much dedication

#

And regardless it’s harmless it’s not against the server rules

It’s not disruptive

ah I see

#

I'd rather wait 23:59:59 hours to put a dot tho

#

that seems more fun and efficient

#

and besides I'm gonna be soon at the level where I actually ask good questions here

hey kid, just in case

#

have you been watching andrew tate or something, cause you seem to be parroting a lot of the talking points those types of influencers like to make

#

don’t get me wrong, there are useful things you can pick up there, being more independent/motivated etc but you can’t just grind your way into anything

#

you need to set realistic goals so you don’t burn yourself out

#

you’re still just 14, you gotta enjoy being a kid while you still can, cause you’re not gonna be able to in the future

#

what things will kt change?

wary kindle
#

other than maybe wanting to leave school and become a dictator

#

does that really count though?

timid flume
#

he was a trend about a year ago

#

this typa idea is completely (or mostly) on my own

#

they do things which are like " wHeRe ArE wE gonna use this in real life "

#

I wanna quit school but only if I'm worthy of it, aka if I know or study the things which will be taught there

wary kindle
#

finishing school (much like finishing university) is not just about knowing the stuff though.

#

because even if you know the stuff, without actual qualifications or something to back it up an employer for example might not believe you know the stuff

#

and would likely hire someone who had finished school or university instead

#

and its honestly really hard to get around that

timid flume
#

well true true I can't think of skipping uni unless I'm a business startup

#

But what I can think of is skipping school to go to uni

wary kindle
#

uni is almost as boring as school btw

#

a lot of the time

#

you will have classes you dont like, unengaged lecturers who just read through slides etc.

#

ofc hopefully lots of classes you enjoy as well, but it will also be boring a lot of the time

timid flume
#

hmm

spark blaze
timid flume
#

because

#

it seems

#

inefficient

#

and

#

like a mild eternal hell

#

8 hours a day at school and after u come home 2-3 for settling and others

spark blaze
timid flume
#

no

#

inefficient as in lack of effort

#

I'm not learning or doing enough

spark blaze
timid flume
#

8 hours a day I do almost nothing

timid flume
#

they do teach something which might be important

#

but they teach soo less

#

and languages and other things except English isn't really what I'm gonna do after 3 years anyways

#

for example social history

spark blaze
#

you do realize school teaches you a lot more than just studies?

timid flume
#

where I live 2nd and 3rd languages are a thing along with history geography and civics

spark blaze
#

how to deal with people, how to make friends

timid flume
#

but I'm pretty sure

spark blaze
#

social skills are important in life no matter how you swing it

timid flume
#

I'm at a psychological stage to understand things enough

#

I do know social and life skills are important

spark blaze
#

besides.. do you realize how hard it is to get a job these days?

wary kindle
spark blaze
#

do you think telling people you dropped out at 14 will make it easier?

timid flume
#

no

#

it's not like

spark blaze
#

then why make it harder for your future self?

timid flume
#

it's more like

#

I'm going deeper into it

#

it would be hard but I definitely like it

spark blaze
#

you can't go deeper if you don't even do the basics first

#

you seem to be interested in maths, do you think a person who can't add numbers would be able to do well at calculus?

#

and where would they learn to add numbers? at school of course

timid flume
#

yes but

#

I could do a lot more if I studied concepts on my own

spark blaze
timid flume
#

in school atleast-

spark blaze
#

would it not be easier to have someone that teaches you everything?

#

you're making this harder than it needs to be for urself

#

self studying is important, but a personal teacher who can understand where you're weak and help you work on that? that's a lot more valuble

#

it's your choice and i'm sure you've thought about it but maybe try thinking a little bit more

#

it's your life man, live how you want but please do not ruin it for yourself

wary kindle
#

i dont think usap is actually going to leave school lol

spark blaze
#

😝

wary kindle
#

pretty sure he realises now theres not really other options

spark blaze
#

well u never know

#

he seems to be on the edge, if he jumps then the decision is already made

#

besides, if we're being realisitc

#

parents🙏

#

theyre not letting him drop oit

thorny folio
#

I dont believe he can understand now. He is too young

spark blaze
#

he probably doesn't like hearing that but you are right

#

🦝

wary kindle
#

no way they are letting him waste their money

timid flume
#

but

#

if I do go and actually complete maths till 12th/high school

#

I would get 2-3 or more months from my parents

#

and its a merrier road then

#

I could do physics and chem and some English

spark blaze
#

they're supposed to do all that for u

timid flume
# spark blaze parents🙏

my parents are very very uh societal and uh care what relatives or society cares. Even though my father pretends he's new and not like that, they're simply like that and care for school and marks

#

but

#

because of that I could mend them easy enough

#

when they saw the email MIT gave me

#

they were impressed

spark blaze
#

you got an email from MIT? what about?

timid flume
wary kindle
#

how are you planning on getting accepted to mit before you finish school?

timid flume
timid flume
#

but not like

#

actually finishing it on paper

spark blaze
#

😭

timid flume
#

but the maths and science

#

no I mean

#

To finish school on my own

#

and apply

wary kindle
spark blaze
urban valley
#

not to say you cant get into MIT but they dont really accept alot of international students

wary kindle
#

what if your application is rejected

#

(very high chance)

spark blaze
#

yeah

#

are you prepared for failure

timid flume
spark blaze
#

we'll all naysayers atp shoot your shot kid

wary kindle
#

still worth trying your best and applying, you will gain some skills from that even if you get rejected tbf

spark blaze
#

if its meant to be it will be

urban valley
#

with that said the international students that do apply are all very good students that have completed their highschools with straight A's and have alot of extra curriculars encompassing math

spark blaze
timid flume
# spark blaze are you prepared for failure

I'm not really in a success at all, I'm already at failure, my marks are low, my parents don't think high of me as intellectually except they think of my brother who's going into a local uni.

#

what am I even gonna fail at

wary kindle
#

oh maybe you could look into maths competitions!!

timid flume
#

no

wary kindle
#

that would help ur future application if u can perform well too

timid flume
#

they're really so bad for me

spark blaze
timid flume
#

I would fail miserably

spark blaze
#

if you say you fail at everything

#

how are you gonna get into mit

#

🐈

timid flume
#

I have a bit of a tendency for deep thinking in things I like

timid flume
#

I love to think about something

#

so

spark blaze
#

thats sweet

timid flume
#

I think there's a chance

#

that gets me

#

something I want

urban valley
#

MIT loves students who participate in the IMO's so if you do want to go their you would need to start joining math competitions

timid flume
#

well

spark blaze
#

believe in urself kid but also be prepared for ur plane to get shot down
i've seen people like you who want something so badly and when they fail to get it they lose their will to live

wary kindle
#

i always regret not joining maths competitions when i was younger and had the chance, it wouldve been fun

urban valley
spark blaze
#

competitions are fun haha but i always get mad when i lose

#

and i have a tendency to lose a lot so its not a good combo

timid flume
wary kindle
timid flume
#

not that much

#

only books

#

but not textbooks

#

I don't like textbooks but I like learning on my own

#

and I can do a lot of something I like

#

which is why the individual topics idea

final bolt
#

I Like doing math problems, but dislike competition, just doing math without worrying about rankings and such is good

urban valley
timid flume
#

I don't like math but the idea of going in depth

#

which is why I liked physics at start

spark blaze
#

ive been wondering for a bit now, what are you even on here for? at the start you seemed to have some questions have they been answered

timid flume
#

but I learnt I need maths the hard way ( after buying a qm book)

final bolt
#

i don’t care if I’m good or not I just enjoy it

urban valley
#

It seems like you like the idea of being good at math but dont want to put in the work but maybe im wrong

timid flume
#

the answers keep bringing me deeper into the rabbit hole

#

at the point I'm not doing anything except arguing with y'all for weeks

#

but

spark blaze

jesus

timid flume
#

my whole summer holidays is cooked

#

but

timid flume
#

I really wanna do something

spark blaze
#

then go out and do it

urban valley
#

Why not do what pear told you to do

spark blaze
#

whatchu sitting here on the cord for

urban valley
#

he even gave you links for the books to study

timid flume
timid flume
#

but

#

I won't be able to read books in the pace I'm thinking

wary kindle
#

are you looking for books on specific (interesting) areas of maths and physics?

spark blaze
timid flume
timid flume
spark blaze
urban valley
#

It is though studying is completly under your control

timid flume
#

what I'm really looking for right now

#

is

#

someone or people to give me set of concepts (from basics till advanced) daily

spark blaze
timid flume
#

and I go indepth about those concepts and explain them etc... Answer the questions

#

that way

#

I can do things in my control

wary kindle
#

ok todays concept is the definition of a limit

#

go learn it

urban valley
#

^

spark blaze
timid flume
#

Alright

spark blaze
#

bye kid have a lovely time studying

timid flume
#

so calculus was basically invented based on a Greek guy

#

called zeno

#

his idea was motion was impossible

#

because

spark blaze
#

i'll see if i can keep up with your development arc

timid flume
#

u needed to do half of something

#

to do the full of something

#

And to that u need half of that.. That that that

#

and like that motion cannot be reached

#

but

#

motion should be reached

#

right?

timid flume
#

logically u could put an infinite number of

urban valley
#

do that

timid flume
#

lines

#

which are widthless

#

in a triangle

#

so that's gonna be the same as other triangles too

#

but

spark blaze
#

stop yammering and go learn!!!

timid flume
#

here's where the limit part comes

spark blaze
timid flume
wary kindle
#

i didnt mean explain what a limit is

spark blaze
wary kindle
#

i meant like epsilon > 0 etc....

spark blaze
#

what a smart kitty

wary kindle
#

its on this page somewhere

timid flume
urban valley
#

my cat isnt educated she likes to attack me whenever i want to study

timid flume
#

if u dont want the definition or why is a limit

wary kindle
#

try to understand the formal definition of a LIMIT OF A sequence

spark blaze
final bolt
timid flume
#

alright

wary kindle
#

of a limit of a sequence

#

uggg i cant type today

final bolt
#

Very intelligent indeed

timid flume
urban valley
#

No she actively attacks my monitor when i do math 😦

timid flume
#

so

#

a sequence

#

is when u need something

#

to go on repeatedly

#

limit in easy words is basically how many times u wanna repeat that

#

but to explain further

#

I would like to quote an example

#

every function starts with something right?

#

so

#

take that as n0

#

and u put in your mathematical function

#

but to actually move on to the next one

#

you need to define how the next will be different

#

for example u can put n0+1

#

as n1

#

to move on to n2

#

you do n1+1

#

but

#

if u notice

#

this forms a pattern

#

don't u see?

#

nx+1 = nx+1

#

where this seems same but what you're tryna say is

#

to move on to next number in terms of n(x)

#

you add 1

#

so

#

the limits come here

#

how many times do u wanna repeat this process?

#

you say 10 times

#

then it's limit is gonna be 10

#

so there's a special spirally f symbol here

#

where the bottom of it is 0 or the starting point of your sequence

#

and the top of it is how many times u wanna repeat that secuence

#

for example

#

the set of natural numbers is 0 to infinity

#

1,2,3,4...n+1 = (n) +1

#

so for example

#

you wanna calculate the area of a scooby dooby in a graph

#

it's hard for u to calculate because it's sooo uneven and distorted

#

but what u can do

#

is put in even undistorted objects which u already know to fill that

#

for example

#

u put in 5 rectangles

#

but u can't fit the 6th one

#

now what u know is that the limit is before the 6th rectangle because there can't be 6

wary kindle
#

ive got completely no idea what ur talking about here im ngl

#

this is the concept i was talking about

#

it might be unfamiliar or maybe too advanced for you though i now realise lol

#

tbh it might take you a while if you want to really understand it, but as long as you know what a sequence is and whatever it should at least be possible

urban valley
#

The cats learning limits

wary kindle
#

cuteeeee

spark blaze
#

awwwww

#

the cat is smarter than me💔💔

urban valley
#

not sure about smarter but she is a little evil

timid flume
#

but in simpler words with examples

spark blaze
#

i dont buy it

timid flume
#

I understand that I'm very incapable in explaining it further

#

so

#

you'll have your detailed answer soon after I sleep and research on it

#

thank you:)

#

good night

urban valley
spark blaze
urban valley
#

Would a non evil cat activily attack me while i sleep

wary kindle
#

you should learn it to the point where you can use it to prove a given sequence converges

urban valley
#

i think not

spark blaze
wary kindle
#

maybe watch some youtube videos

urban valley
#

therefore she is banished to the realm of calculus

spark blaze
spark blaze
wary kindle
urban valley
#

you might be onto something but id reather pin the blame on her

spark blaze
#

oh my god speaking of sleeping😭every night i tell myself im gonna sleep early then boom it's 4am and i need a cigarette

urban valley

#

aww shes protecting you

timid flume
#

GUYS

#

I THINK I'M ONTO SOMETHING

#

I think I can calculate the amount of happiness in the world

buoyant verge
timid flume
#

okay maybe

timid flume
#

here's the equation

#

what it really means is

#

first - it's fancy

#

next so

#

you see the LHS of the first equation

#

there's a bunch of this '>'

#

and in there

#

H reads happiness

#

and the Y reads your

#

your happiness!

#

I'll tell u about the crossed triangle later

#

First let's talk about the modified summation symbol

#

below that symbol, u see a Greek alphabet + pi right?

#

what the first Greek alphabet in that (aka the crossed out 'ø') means is

#

The happy thoughts we have

#

for example,

#

you go to a mall

#

your father says he will buy you anything you want

#

so you think

#

" Oh my father loves me yay "

#

that's what I consider a happy thought

#

now, that's the first Greek symbol below the modified summation symbol.

#

but why did I say "+ pi "?

#

so what pi really means

#

is the happy events

timid flume
#

that's what I consider a happy event

#

so the down part of the summation symbol

#

is happy thoughts + happy events

#

but where do you concour these things?

#

that's where the modified summation comes

#

what it means that " All the down parts OF the up part are added "

#

now that u know what that means

timid flume
#

what it refers to is the events that happened around throughout your life

#

that is from the birth to your current present

#

all the events including thoughts*

#

so

#

now that u understand the down part and the up part and the modified summation symbol

#

let me tell another part

#

so naturally this should be the total happiness right?

#

but no, why?

#

because when you're born the first few years aren't really something you can " Feel "

#

so happiness even though exists, doesn't matter there or isn't conscious

#

so

#

for that

#

I invent a new symbol called lambda

#

what lambda means is " An age where you are mentally mature enough to realize happiness "

#

it's not something like when you're 60 u understand the true meaning of life

#

it's more like, when you're 5 you ask for ice cream and lick it while eating it. i.e you actually understand you want something and that makes u feel nice

#

so

#

now u understand lambda

#

but why did it come here?

#

because

#

for u to experience a happy event

buoyant verge
#

🙂

timid flume
#

you need to know it is happy for you, or u need to know it is happy for you after it happens

#

so that's why

#

pi starts at lambda

#

that's what the up '>' symbol means

#

That happy events form when you are matured enough to realize that, when that happens or is about to happen

#

but

#

why is the other Greek symbol ø not that?

#

because

#

thoughts u can think anytime

#

you might remember something when you were very small

#

but u might not actually realize that event when u WERE small

#

so that is why

#

I wrote ø starts at forky-greek symbol >

#

the forky Greek symbol means the events and thoughts in your lifetime

#

so it really starts when you come into this world

#

but it's not necessarily everything, more like everything u can think and remember of

#

so, we can say actually event expiriencing happiness starts at a concrete level

#

but the thinking and memory of those can be at a more abstract level i.e when you're smaller than the concrete level matureness begining

timid flume
#

so now u know the first equation

#

you can know the second one

#

but Before I explain u what it is

#

Let me tell you why it is

#

so the thin line difference arises over here

#

you have happy thoughts

#

okay

#

but

#

are they the same

#

as what u consider happy after an event?

#

let me tell it more clearly

#

you can sure think of " Oh my father loves me " And feel happy

#

but is it the same as " my school days were so memorable and happy even though I faced a lot of suffering "

#

now

#

we enter a thin line difference

#

that does count as thoughts of a happiness if u feel happy after having that thought.

#

but

#

what I'm trying to say is what you consider happy at end

#

you may consider sad things sometimes happy too, with something called nostalgia
