Oh, let us have real function f.
Oh, let us have precalculus knowledge.
Oh, let us have the limit equations knowledge.

Oh, we will let f'(x) be the derivative of f(x).
Oh, let f(x) = sin(x).
Oh, therefore f'(x) = cos(x) by using some mathematical proof.

If there is no derivative,
Calculus will be nothing,
Hence it will be terrible!



Well, here is mine.

The poetry of mathmatics- I like it, especially the precalculus part. You don't see this everyday.

Math teaching was my second option. I could still muster up that proof. I love calculus.

I loved calculus until the advanced integral type; then the bottom fell out. Returned to English major. Let's see, that's trying a major in religion, philosophy, math, then English. Indecisive, maybe.

You are marvelous, for something juxtaposed amalgamated.
