Re: maths
Hi chantelle;
Seems a little late for this but welcome to the forum. I predict we will not see much of you but we will never forget you.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.

Hi Agnishom
I see that you like going through old threads, like me.
The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't.
