  • rational expression

    Do you do this in math?

    I wasnt doing well in rational expression due to hard.

    I think so. I think I did this in my calculus class. But can u give an example just to make sure

      Rational expressions are ok. What really blows is when you get to the level where everything seems to be named after mathematicians: Lagrange this, Lagrange that, a Vandermonde matrix, de Morgan's law ... well, actually de Morgan is easy to understand, but I hate everything that starts with either Lagrange, Euler or Gauss with a passion. Newton, well I can usually handle Newton, and I have yet to lose any respect for Pythagoras since grade 7.

        Rational expressions may be more difficult in the beginning, but they will become second nature if you do enough of those

        Lagrange isn't that bad... as long as you properly define your frames of references, you just have to remember the few equations

        Gauss= Eww
        Euler + Fluid mechanics = super eww. I just can't get a hold on to that stuff

          List of famous people (not necessarily limited to mathematics) who have made my life miserable:

          Gibbs
          Helmholtz
          Sanger
          Screaming_emu
          Pauli
          L'Hopital (not as much as the others though)
          Whoever invented the internet
          "The Director also sets the record straight on what would happen if oxygen masks were to drop from the ceiling: The passengers freak out with abandon, instead of continuing to chat amiably, as though lunch were being served, like they do on those in-flight safety videos."

              You don't need to worry about that, it's a list of famous people
