Re: Can you suggest six names of great mathematicians quickly?

Did she marry those people?

Marry who?


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

You could explain what you are asking and then I will be more accurate.

Hmmm, that person joined the rest of the family and did not care about the m's. It was that persons decision. In name, still an m but not really.

It is just a figure of speech, that person wanted nothing to do with the remaining m's. You see, we were not members of their group. In a sense we were their enemy and they were ours.
