What's wrong? There's an overly excited guy finishing calculus who's thinking he can fly into Complex Analysis already with his overbearing excitement. Of course he's going to hit a wall but the excitement he shows is really pure and nice. I hope he doesn't fall for the rudin meme and has a good time learning analysis and lin alg.

not this guy, but that's like saying stories can't be funny. Sure not all stories are funny, and some people don't enjoy funny, but if you read a proof and finally understand something, you can get euphoric.
(Too bad the work euphoric has a bad connotation around here, but it describes the feeling best)
Like hearing a joke, a proof can make you happy. Humans are wired to take pleasure from unexpected situations - that's a large part of what makes jokes "funny" (i.e. something we have an emotional reaction to) in the first place.

Mathematics is not a subset of logic, and saying so claims that logic is not itself an area of study.

That is like saying (almost) all of mathematics is graph theory, as it can be formalized in zfc which is a binary relation.

>an axiomatic approach
>its not Logic
Oh, you must be thinking about a weird definition of Logic, plain and simple
>>
>>7766103
Logic is primarily the study of reasoning. If you extend logic to include anything which even just uses reasoning, you get a pointless definition.

For example, mathematicians who study the form and effects of statements independent from zfc could be considered logicians, whereas although the work of one who studies nonlinear PDEs could be reduced to axiomatic proofs, calling such a person a logician would be (barring possible exceptional cases) asinine.

WHAT?

One of the main reasons I'm majoring in mathematics is to be able to work in an office all the dame. Let the physicist and the engineers do the monkey manual labor while I work comfortably in my office handling statistics, software, applied problems or whatever.

What does this girl think mathematics is? Does she think she is going to go on an adventure to the Congo with Indiana Jones by majoring in math?

Bitches be crazy dawg.
>>
>>7766192
She means a repetitive office job where you mindlessly type things out and fill forms / spreadsheets, obviously.

When I think about working math I don't think of a cubicle, I think of a comfy small office with a whiteboard.

Can't you justify the "multiply by dx" meme by writing the derivative as its definition, by taking the limit on both sides? And then multiplying by δx? Genuine question.
>>
>>7766260
Dealing with basic physical concepts, as in force, mass and energy, you can't define them within mathematics because mathematical physics deals only with quantity. What is mass, energy and force, without circular defining on each other, seems to be a logical pursuit. I could go further and talk about other patterns, which you can count, but not define within mathematics. This would turn out to be our moral concepts, our notions of beauty, psychology, architecture, art etc. If you do define mathematics loosely though, than this sentence is mathematical, and mathematics is equal to logic; this though is not the standard approach of math.

I could say everything in our language that is not considered mathematical is within Logic. I could go further and say the axioms of math are pure Logic, and because math is Undefined by many in academics, there is no such thing as math but only logic and physical logic. I take it that sophists will hate me and all, and I dont care, because they just want to fool you.
>>
>>7766341
what limit, exactly? what are you trying to prove, that dx * (dy/dx) = dy? what does this even mean?
>>
>>7766330
Are you retarded? You know that there are plenty of fields of research in mathematics right? It is just that I don't immediately plan on pursuing research (aka, gradschool) because I'd rather start working and become self-sufficient before I even think about getting a masters or PhD.

Enjoy being an immature fag who thinks that by just saying you will do research, you will actually get that far.
>>
>>7766353
The literal definition of the derivative. As in the limit of delta x goes to 0.
Please don't tell me you didn't know this.

Rudin's an amazing reference book for introductory analysis and great for doing lectures based on it. It's terrible for self study since it's very terse and condensed, and pulls magic formulas out of his ass.

Terence Tao's Analysis I is the opposite, a pretty bad reference (too slow) but amazing for self study (especially for people just getting into basic rigor)

dx and dy on their own do have mathematic meanings though and refer to differential forms. But this is correct.
>>
>>7767210
Actually.

Induction, the method used for proofs, is deductive.

This is counter-intuitive, I realize, but the principle of induction as it's used in proofs is actually based on deductive reasoning. It's use is deductive, not inductive.
>>
>>7766112
Literally all of mathematics relies on the study of reasoning.

Unless you're like 18 you fuck, in which case you probably haven't taken a real mathematics course.
>>
>>7767497
But dy/dx can't be interpreted as quotient of differential forms.

It is, for beginning mathematicians. Look at it, look at all the handholding and baby steps he has you take in the start. Introduction to set theory, the natural numbers, etc etc.

This does wonders for starting mathematicians.
>>
>>7767528
How should it be interpreted as in the context of the meanings of dy and dx then?
I've always wondered this.
>>
>>7767823
you should stop thinking about them as differential forms (and please, stop spamming that everywhere) until you actually study differential forms. dx and dy have no meaning in calculus, and it's just notation in the riemann integral
>>
>>7767823
they used to mean baby little steps in some proportion when calculus was a part of physics, now it's just hard to die notation because in 300 years we haven't managed to find a better symbol for differentiation
>>
>>7766341
Nah not really. That bottom term in the definition of the derivative goes to 0, so if you multiply both sides by it, stuff gets cucky
