<p>Mathematics?</p>
<p>For me, it is a tossup between number theory and certain things in combinatorics.</p>
<p>For me…probably between number theory, algebraic geometry and logarithmic spirals.</p>
<p>Arithmetic. It’s definitely the most useful one.</p>
<p>Multiplication is quite fascinating.</p>
<p>adding… substraction is too challenging…</p>
<p>Number theory, but the most math I have is Algebra 2 and Trig, so number theory is really the most I can comprehend.</p>
<p>At this point, calculus seems very interesting to me. I haven’t had the time to look into number theory or anything recently.</p>
<p>Vectors 10char</p>
<p>Mathematical logic, combinatorics, real functions, and sequences/series.</p>
<p>Group theory and numerical analysis seem interesting, but I don’t know enough to say anything about them without sounding like a fool.</p>
<p>i’m an applied math major and i can’t stand any of it, sorry guys :(</p>
<p>There was this one thing I really liked in Algebra II. It was basically like min/max problems without calculus. I think we may have called it linear programming.
In pre-cal I really liked mods. Like Mod 7, where only the numbers 0-6 exist. Different bases were cool too but not as cool.
But most of all I liked Taylor Series :).</p>
<p>^^At least you’ll find a job though.</p>
<p>Differential equations, applied to engineering and physics specifically, even though it’s a relatively fundamental syllabus course and therefore lacks the unique perspective of certain discrete topics. It blew my mind realizing how practically every human invention can be modeled or approximated using differential equations, not to mention the number of physical processes explained through such equations.</p>
<p>Pure mathematics is heady stuff for me. ‘Beauty’ and ‘rigor’ don’t mean anything to me unless I can actually see it in a physical form lol. </p>
<p>OH, I forgot to add this: any math involved in computer programming or security. Number theory is boring. Number theory applied to RSA cryptography (even if it is outdated) is intriguing.</p>
<p>Does physics count? :D</p>
<p>If math past algebra I never existed, I’d be cool with that.</p>
<p>^ha same here lol</p>
<p>but if i had to choose I’d pick geometry…</p>
<p>Fibonacci’s number is fun.</p>
<p>Does Game Theory count?</p>
<p>Vectors</p>
<p>10charrrrrr</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Oh yeah, lin programming lol. That was pretty cool and I was clearly able to see practical uses for it.</p>
