I'm a high school dropout brainlet. I don't even know what all those symbols mean.

>>8712697
Feels bad man. I'll never understand the secrets of the universe. I just want to understand Quantum Physics properly and not through the lens of pop sci "lol it's so weird how can it be a particle AND a wave? lol crazy"

whats ur iq

>>8712735
87

>>8712736
oh boi

>>8712697
I dropped out of high school as well but recently began reinvigorating my math skills. You can still pick it up, requires persistence like with most things

>>8712695
how can 1-1+1-1...= 0 or 1 that would mean this infinite sequence would have to end but that wouldn't make it infinite so wouldn't it equal neither?

>>8712697
bruh I started with regular algebra in CC and now I'm taking ODE and Lin Alg. Everyone has to start everywhere. I'm not even good at math but I'm enjoying the higher level stuff offered at my coolege.

here you go

>>8712730
Check out MIT Open Courseware 2011 Quantum Physics lectures by Alan Adams. It's all on YouTube for free. Bit mathy but not too bad.

>>8712777
Just ordered a copy, thanks man

>>8712406
Take some classes on Khan Academy and learn what you can. You don't have to learn the advanced stuff, the basics are pretty cool in themselves.

>>8712406
Just kill yourself already so you won't curse your offspring with those shit genes

>>8712745
0+0+0+0+0+0+0... != 0?

>>8712808
does it? that means as I said before there is a point where you stop adding zeros but that would mean it isn't an infinite set of numbers

>>8712808
[math] \left(\sum 0 \right)! =1 [/math]

>>8712745
[eqn] \sum_{i=0}^\infty (-1)^i = \frac{1}{2} (\mathfrak{R}) [/eqn]

Can anyone recommend me a couple of precollege math books (math books which cover everything I would need to know before starting a math degree) preferably ones that I can torrent?

>>8713469
Just read Basic Mathematics by Serge Lang, it's recommended everywhere on /sci/

What's the consensus on suicide? Is it a good solution if I'm a brainlet?

>>8713485
This is what I was looking for, thank you

>>8713488
Not really, just read some great philosophers, it'll improve your life

>>8712695
>0/0=1
>dividing by zero

king of brainlets

>>8712406
Maybe you understand it, but you just don't care. I know quite a few people like that.
There is an emotional component that makes you be drawn to something.

>>8712695
Isn't 1/0 infinite and 1/infinite infinitesimal?

>>8713469
>>8713485

I can second Basic Mathematics. It gets you thinking about math like a mathematician, and gets you away from just memorizing formulas like you were probably taught in high school

>>8712745
1-1+1-1...=s
1-(1-1+1-1...)=1-s
1-1+1-1+1...=1-s
s=1-s
2s=1
s=0.5

>>8713542
brainlets, he just proved that 0/0=1 and 1/0= infinitesimal

>>8715475
Instead of cutting the pie into x number of slices you don't cut the pie or however many pies there were. That's dividing by 0 in real life.

>have 1 pie
>divide into 0.5 equal slices
>now have 2 pies
is this how jesus did that whole bread thing?

>mfw literature and philosophy are actually the best sibject to pursue,unironically

>>8715590
Simulation theory proven.

>>8715595
As hobbies, definitely.

>>8712406
>understand
>beauty

>>8712695
woah

>>8712406
There is nothing beautiful about maths, those who think math is "beautiful" aren't real mathematicians, they're artists.

>too intelligent to understand the beauty of life

please assist me

>>8713469
wtf is happening in that picture

nerds call math "beautiful" because they've never seen a woman

>>8716864
You can't do philosophy as a hobby, though. It's a complete way of being.
