Ah, I see now why math hasn’t advanced in 200 years. Modern mathematicians are retarded and desperately want to be the next Euler instead of meaningfully contribute to the field. Look at this insane dogshit.
>>16951499it has though, just that we don't teach those advancements to knuckle draggers at school anymore. Look at yourself. Remember the average high schooler, if you ever even attended. Even basic calculus they don't wanna learn because, quote, "why are there letters, where are the numbers".
>>16951585You’re confusing algebra with calculus pajeet
>>16951587No, people make the claim about both, and complex numbers, too. Algebra is already hopeless enough though, you are right. But back on topic, someone like that wouldn't even get the point of SVDs.
>inb4 reee groups and number fields are algebra tooI am making a point about school children, Anon.
>>16951585I think you could almost teach calculus at the same time as algebra, at least the really basic ideas of it. I feel like little knuckle dragger me would have gotten into math earlier if I had some protocalculus to show me how it relates to the physical world in 9th grade math.
>>16951629For example, I wouldn't have been smart enough to figure out integration by parts or anything but maybe if they made us graph velocity over time and had us count the squares under the graph to find distance that would have been pretty educational for me.
>>16951499anon... that's just a formalisation of an infinitesimal. there's nothing insane about it, and it's not a modern concept in itself
>>16951630that already makes you smarter than the average Anon. You need to understand that people are aggressively ignorant and don't want to be taught what doesn't help then eat, shit or fuck better.
>>16951693Quote of the year
>>16951693>eat, shit or fuck better.Ive literally travelled the world, in circles like a dog, looking for a place to permanently eat (home cooked meals), shit (normally instead resturants), or fuck better (than not). Quarter million miles, the distance to the moon.
>>16951672theres nothing sane about infinites
>>16951499Where the fuck did you get the idea from that math hasn't advanced in 200 years
>>16952010Physics certainly has but not math lol
>>16951499Math devolved 200 years ago. Lagrange gave calculus the most solid footing there was, is and ever will be.On a semi related note, dual numbers are just as legitimate as complex numbers. If you believe there is a number that multiplied by itself equals -1, then you shouldn’t have problem with the former.
e2 is just zerothere I solved it
>>16951693>You need to understand that people are aggressively ignorant and don't want to be taught what doesn't help then eat, shit or fuck better.Is that bad?
