Re: Oh say can u c a bunch of newbies



seriously?
i represents the square root of -1 and is an "imaginary" number. Hence the "get real."
π is "pi" which is used for finding various information related to circles. It can't be written out completely. It just goes on forever: 3.14159265.... etc. Its "irrational."
Try taking all quarters of college calculus in your sophomore/junior year and then stats.
Then tell me math is easy. If its still easy for you at that point, try diff-eq's.
I stopped at the end of calculus my junior year. I was afraid if I went onto diff-eqs I wouldn't be able to get a B or higher. :p
edit: and for the record, I do agree with you for all math that isn't "higher" (i.e. up to pre-calc). I have no clue why so many high schoolers have trouble with it.
