I got an acceptance email!!!!

<p>^I actually did 5 Calc review problems today without any prodding from my guilty conscience or the dumb hw alarm on my phone. Probably the first time I’ve voluntarily done work (without a deadline in <24 hours) in years. :o</p>

<p>^ Nicely done. I’ve been going flank speed all year, but since second trimester ended my work ethic has begun to fade rather rapidly.</p>

<p>Oh wait, L’Hopital’s rule? I have a song about that.</p>

<p>There are 7 indeterminate forms!
0/0 is nice
infinity/infinity will do
0 times infinity
infinity - infinity
0 to the 0
0 to the infinity
infinity to the 0
1 to the infinity</p>

<p>^Out of curiosity, to what tune would I sing that song? I was thinking of going with “O Sole Mio.”</p>

<p>And the song doesn’t include ∞/0. So what kinda form is that? :p</p>

<p>The only class I care about is AP Bio, because I want to do well enough that colleges won’t revoke my acceptance (which a D could theoretically). Other than that, my days mostly consist of lollygagging and CC.</p>

<p>^^Well, I stopped writing out the lyrics after the first two. I don’t know the tune, but it’s probably a traditional one. </p>

<p>Is infinity over 0 an indeterminate form? I’ve never heard of it, and wolfram tells me there are 7. [Indeterminate</a> – from Wolfram MathWorld](<a href=“http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Indeterminate.html]Indeterminate”>Indeterminate -- from Wolfram MathWorld)</p>

<p>Side note: I no longer know calculus, so you are likely more right than I.</p>

<p>^I never knew Calculus, so we’re probably both wrong. :)</p>

<p>@gunther6456: AP Bio and I duked it out in the first 2 marking periods, but now I’ve realized fighting for that 97+% just isn’t worth the effort. Just hover in the safe 80%s, and you’ll do quite nicely.</p>

<p>And I’ve been on CC since about 5:00 this afternoon. I’m definitely addicted…</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Both scales. This was just weak.</p>

<p>@ksarmand Well I was hovering around A- for a while then screwed up a test and need to get my grade back up but it will be okay. I have been on since 8 or so I think.</p>

<p>As a sidenote to the ∞/0 and its questionability as an indeterminate form…</p>

<p>Take the lim n->∞ of n/(1/n) = ∞/0, but not really…</p>

<p>n/(1/n) = n^2 , and lim n->∞ of n^2 = ∞</p>

<p>Thus, ∞/0 is simply a deceitful and illusory sham.</p>

<p>Oh… and it may be useful to note that using l’hospital’s would yield n->∞ (-x^2) = -∞. Which is failure, due to the fact that l’hospital’s was used on a limit that did not equal an indeterminate form. :P</p>

<p>likewise, 0/∞ indicates convergence … I love this stuff …</p>

<p>Only CCers coud turn a joke thread into a Calc discussion…</p>

<p>@neonseri yes chess playing cheerleaders do exist</p>

<p>^ wow… they exist?!</p>

<p>probability and statistics have officially failed me on this one…</p>

<p>^lol they didn’t fail you completely; I’m the only one haha</p>

<p>Whatever happened to taking ∞/0 from a philosophical perspective? I don’t even understand the concept of zero mathematically; I’ve always approached it from a philosophical standpoint. /mourns</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Eres tan cruel. :(</p>

<p>^ :] Truth is indeed a frightful realization, mais c’est la vie.</p>

<p>and the comment of a group of CCers turning a thread into a calc discussion becomes all the more feasible when that thread happens to sit in the Harvard section, hah.</p>
