今天是教师节,这里分享一下美国数学会曾经分享的数学滑稽网页——数学教授语录(Math Professor Quotes, http://mathprofessorquotes.)。 这里分享一下我们口耐的数学教授们上课期间的一些代表性的语录——当然,有的可能有点雷,不喜误入!
“It’s a game, see? I give you an epsilon, and you have to find the N! It’s a very fun game, I promise.” “There are no earthquakes in geometry.”
“One of you answered a problem on the test with ‘Only god knows this.’” “A differential equation is something with a lot of x’s.” “This isn’t mathematics, this is theology.” “A problem being in NP doesn’t mean that the problem is hard. It just means that it’s slightly not easy.” “A way to define natural numbers is by rocks–if you have that number of rocks, you have a natural number.” “When a ball is a cube, Paris is in Belgium.” “Love is NOT a symmetric relation.” “This is the kind of thing you think about for ten minutes and then say, “Yes, it’s obvious.”” “Whenever you make a sign mistake, you can say “Oh, but I meant modulo 2.”” “It’s really easy to do math, you just have to know how to draw parabolas and potatoes.” “It’s algebra, so it’s a little messy.”
