I don't remember how it works, although I'm pretty sure I understood at least a bit of it in high school. The issue was actually remembering all the pieces of it. And then I ended up in the Advanced Placement Calculus somehow. Closest I've ever gotten to failing something.

Why was the most annoying part, I wanted to solve things, not figure of how it made supposed sense when fact of the matter is that they made no sense at all. I like math but seriously, screw calculus and screw logarithms.

   Well the thing is that I couldn't always remeber the formula as a kid either. But I could always rederive it when I needed to so there wasn't a problem.

Actually crow, that wasn't a joke, at least not when I started. When I was typing that up I stopped an realized I made an accidental pun for the savvy mathematicians.

Yeah, I couldn't have figured that out. Or rather, I could have, but I didn't want to bother or something.

The other thing that drove me up the wall was the "Show all your work" part of it. Half the time I'd just B.S. my way through the problem, end up with the right answer, and have no clue how I got there other than "well, it looks right".

I like how I complete side tracked whatever conversation you guys were having into math. evil grin

Well, Fluttershy's dress is actually coming along nicely. I should probably draw her face eventually though... XD

Showing my work wasn't a problem, it was having to explain the Anne of the principles I used and how and why they worked in the problem I was working and why they applied and what my answer was supposed to be called. Why should I have to explain myself in a level on par to IB English II HL for math?

I always hated that too, especially since it was usally a more a matter of mindreading the teacher than any actual math. You can like math while still hating math classes.

Speaking of which, I have a math test tomorrow. I need willpower enough to quit this thread when I need to.

[up]Imagine having to do this with second grade math

Of course you need math. you just don't realize it.

I don't dislike math in itself, I'm just terrible at it. At some points I really wish that I was better at it because stuff like Astronomy interests me a lot. But I just can't handle the mathematics behind it. I'm very happy that the degree I'm currently working towards doesn't require any math whatsoever.

Well I consdier myself pretty good at math, and even I don't understand the math behind astronomy.

My math class is actually really cool. Probably because my program hogs all the good teachers. cool

Exactly, any of the stuff I'd be interested in would be way beyond me. Any of the stuff that I probably could manage would be boring enough that I wouldn't really be able to do it.

Unfortunatle 90% of the maths I was taught are completely useless for me right nowtongue

Woo hoo! Done with Fluttershy! Sort of. Should I get some ink and outline the form? I've never been good at that... ><

I was going to say "wild mass guessCrackle has ice breath instead of fire breathwild mass guess" but then I remembered we see smoke rising from his or her nostrils.
