Maths used in a sentence

Maths in a sentence as a noun

But leave our damn maths words alone. Old man quarterto shakes his fist at you!

You are good at maths but lousy at sports? Makes you no better or worse than someone with the opposite levels of skill.

As my maths teacher used to say, "even in the privacy of your own home, you should not extrapolate."

The Khan Academy approach is very good for maths, and most sciences. These are cases where you can distil knowledge into a few examples and cases, and it works well.

If a Fields medalist needed to slow down to read some maths, I can slow down to really understand whatever it is that I'm doing. And when I tell myself "I've learned that already!"

17 years later, I've co-founded three successful and highly maths-intensive companies. I am certain that I could not have done this without the *****.

Machine Learning is the CS equivalent - broad appeal, but to take it any further it's mostly maths and stats, which turns a lot of people off.

There isn't really a cypher to it, no maths etc. It's just having the patience to guess at a few placements then seeing if that fits the wider model.

My solution to a problem he described was quick to code and hellish to run, his involved maths I did not understand took five lines and ran super fast. he chose an algorithm that fit the problem domain better - because of more extensive training than I got.

They call the languages "runnable maths", or "active maths", where they think of a minimal notation to specify how a system should behave, and then implement a compiler to run that notation as code. They manage this through a compiler-writing language, ometa.

The maths of patent trolling is simple: - filing suits, issuing C&Ds, etc = $X million - potential payoff for settlement or successful litigation = $YYY million - probability of winning = Z% If Y x Z > X then it's worthwhile suing. Filing a bond with the court then change sthis to Y x Z > X + B.

What this means is that not only is the result verifiable, it is publicly verifiable by almost anyone with basic high school maths. The reason this is important because I have worked elections with **** candidates - and I worked in Belfast when the civil war was on and the degree of trust across the political communities was very low.

In fact and I'm glossing over this now, because the maths are damn complicated whenever a gravitating object moves inertially, the gravitational acceleration vector at a point removed actually points at where the object actually is at a given instant, as opposed to where the object's light is seen to be coming from at that instant. So in that sense, we're back to gravitation being instantaneous again!

That said, if Quantum Mechanics has taught us anything, it's that those "purely mathematical" concepts can have very real impacts on the world, so in a sense, it is exciting that these "pseudo-particles" have been found to exist, because the maths might reveal all sorts of funky **** we can do with them that would be impossible with regular particles, and the maths doesn't care that they're not regular particles - it works with either kind of particle.

Quote Examples using Maths

Perhaps, but it isn't because we have to be shown things like maths and programming with striking adverts, responsive websites and pretty flyers. I'm not going to pretend that society has been engineered into a patriarchy, over thousands of years, as part of a sinister plot by the Illuminati to preclude the success and independence of the children of the mother-goddess. I'm likewise not going to pretend to think that there are men with power who purposefully keep women from rising up, or give preferential treatment to male candidates for scholarships/whatever without even realising it. Because ultimately I have no proof of such things and neither do I care about some male-dominant society, because in my experience, what matters is the talent; if you have it, if you have an original idea, a way how to implement it, or if you're simply the best at what you do, you will succeed if you want to, male or female. I do not care why my boss, my clients or my investors choose me, I just want the opportunity to do what I do best, what I like doing. If you think women simply haven't been exposed to the magical and fun possibilities of mathematics and computers, think again. If women were ignorant to these fields and what they involve, they wouldn't laugh at you for being a "nerd" or date muscular/rich guys instead of you. They know what maths is, and they know what programming is, and they'll never want to visit a forum and tell everyone how awesome it was when they elegantly solved some mathematical problems or came up with a new proof for some random theorem.
