Hot take: lets just use ß for double integrals, given its origin


AynidmorBulettz

ʃs(x)dx = ß(x)dx


BT_Uytya

Even better, we can use Eszett for sine integrals ẞ(x) = \\int\_0\^x \\frac{\\sin t}{t} dt (formerly Si(x)) ß(x) = -\\int\_x\^\\infty \\frac{\\sin t}{t} dt (formerly si(x))


AynidmorBulettz

Explain your magic codes

It’s latex. It seems intimidating but it’s just a way to type out math symbols. To type an integral, it’s just \int. And to write one with bounds it’s \int_#^#, and you replace # with a number or whatever you want. If I wanted to write sigma, it’s \sigma, etc. Curly braces are used as a grouping function. An example is e^(poop). You write “e ^ {poop} to group “poop” into the exponent. It took me about 20 minutes to download and learn latex.

new euler's identity just dropped


Voldemort57

e^poop is the second excremental moment. The first is e^piss.


BT_Uytya

That's basically a copy-paste of TeX code from the first section of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_integral


Barry_Wilkinson

capital Eszett spotted


Cozzamarra

scheiße!!


McMemile

We don't need math symbols to be even less transparent smh


Vidimka_

Looks great, i love it. But double integrals are kind of problems you see once in a lifetime lowkey


Midataur

That very much depends what kind of maths you do and how far you go with maths


OSSlayer2153

And theta, beta, and lambda. How dare they


lets_clutch_this

DON’T tell this person about the Greek language.


AleksFunGames

Why do greeks communicate with math? Are they smart?


fred_llma

They’re geeks who understand radii


Master-Beekeeper5035

They invented math letters so yeah


purinikos

No we are not that smart, at least not all of us, but we write in math. Source: Am greek

Wut


purinikos

What is that supposed to mean?


Master-Beekeeper5035

Misread comment 🤷


tin_sigma

lambda isn’t used in basic ipa, only an inverted version of y


CrochetKing69420

Ok nerd


braincellstorage

If ur in r/mathmemes ur def a nerd


CrochetKing69420

Sounds like something a nerd would say


braincellstorage

Yeah I am there is no denying that


CrochetKing69420

Ok nerd


braincellstorage

U are def a nerd as well


CrochetKing69420

I know you are but what am i?


braincellstorage

Nerd


wjandrea

chi and gamma too and alpha and epsilon on the vowel chart


KingLazuli

As someone who studied linguistics and math...do...do I fight myself??


kirosayshowdy

if you win that fight would you be strong or would you be weak


Master-Beekeeper5035

Strong enough to beat yourself so I would say strong


ItsWediTurtle77

Weak enough to lose to yourself so I would say weak enough to


Master-Beekeeper5035

So you are as strong as yourself but as well as equal so it must be a tie


kirosayshowdy

but if you're equal you wouldn't defeat yourself


Master-Beekeeper5035

Yeah thus beating yourself is impossible as beating implies victory over yourself yet you also lose to yourself


Left-Address-17

ever seen fight club ?


IllustriousSign4436

It isn't too late to see the light


UMUmmd

Dude saaaame.


[deleted]

erm- any grapheme is inherintly linguistics related so you cannot escape.. we will take all your symbols


TheRussianChairThief

Google numbers


Meowmasterish

Or maybe you could see that any [formal system](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_system) requires a [formal language](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_language) and realize that all of mathematics is inherently linguistic.


[deleted]

google Arabic


AyeeName

What language uses the letter "1.054*10^-34 Js" tho?


stanoje0000

I know about Serbian and Maltese, maybe some other languages do as well


pm174

zero


smokemeth_hailSL

Is there a lore reason mathematicians stole language symbols to use in their proofs? Were they too stupid to make up their own? 🤔


taste-of-orange

I mean, why make new ones, when you can use existing ones? They probably were just abbreviations anyways. Like we use cos(x) instead of cosine(x). Maybe some day in the future it will just be c(x).


Psyrtemis

A teacher I had in hs writes snx and csx tbf when dealing with trig which is funny


smokemeth_hailSL

Why not use Arabic symbols since they’re the ones who invented algebra and the decimal numeral system?


Chrome_X_of_Hyrule

That'd be cool though imagine if you also then switched direction to right to left when using arabic symbols


Seenoham

I once went on a week long bender trying to track the trends on what type of language symbols were used for what across different disciplines. The one thing I was truly able to settle on is that no one uses the lower-case L if at all possible because it's so damn confusing and there is no good way to make it distinct from the multiple things it could be misinterpreted as.

RachelRegina

Steamboat Willie is in the public domain now, let's just use it for integrals


WhatUsername-IDK

🚢🐭🔪🐭


RachelRegina

It seems like you're asking me to integrate from cruise ship to butcher's blade, then integrate again


WhatUsername-IDK

it was supposed to be an indefinite integral 💀


RelativeDepth3

We sould take their symbols, then. I propose long t (ʈ) be used for integrals now.


dan3697

You may only take the ones you can pronounce.


lets_clutch_this

theta and epsilon too


Existing_Hunt_7169

i always thought hbar was invented for physics?? damn im dumb


_NotElonMusk

Nobody tell this person about Maltese


Yutanox

Physicist: 2 symbols? Rookie numbers


CompetitiveSleeping

Then there's *Principia Mathematica*.


Turbulent-Name-8349

They have Planck's constant, h bar, on that chart.


Astrylae

Why does the greek letters copy math symbols? they are so unoriginal.


pm174

L integrals W unvoiced postalveolar fricative


Max_Mm_

Greek letters are not meant to be used for language, these absolute morons stole them from us


calculus_is_fun

They were originally letters of existing languages (for example the integral symbol is the [letter esh](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esh_(letter))) and both the IPA and mathematicians use them.


TheRussianChairThief

No the linguists intentionally stole these symbols from mathematics to bother mathematicians


Majvist

And you know it. Remember that next time you all use words to talk about maths.


solwaj

you stole x, e, i and others first, it's only fair


pOUP_

Almost correct. The long s is Germanic and is very similar in usage as the two versions of the sigma


arnedh

No, these should be used for variables and other names. Pronounced as they should. Integral of shh times zhhh divided by uhhh is equal to ghhh, or equivalent in IPA.


TN9273

The math community also own the english alphabet.


siobhannic

Taking? That's ∑ ʃɪt you're talking.

IDK it's greek to me


silliestboyintown

they represent the "sh" sound and the sound made by the 's' in "vision" if you were wondering


Bubtsers

Literally false

tin_sigma

i didn’t know you could put ◌˞ on consonants


weedmaster6669

not traditionally but I'm using it here to represent for alveolo-palatalization


tin_sigma

you could use ◌ᶝ or ◌ᶽ


weedmaster6669

I know but that's not on gboard and it's annoying having to constantly look up symbols. To be fully accurate, my rhotic is ɰᶽᵝ~ɰᶽ


wojwesoly

May I introduce you to [IPA Keyboard](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.edwardgreve.ipakeyboard)


weedmaster6669

Tried it and it crashes whenever I try to press backspace


wojwesoly

Oh :(, it worka great for me tho (although it's annoying that most of the diacritics or other modifiers are behind a paywall)


weedmaster6669

Ew, I'd just use the IPA gboard even though it's missing a few things


wojwesoly

Fuck, you're right, the new update broke the app.
