101 Analysis Bedtime Stories

Post by Aidoneus »

It took me a while to find a link: https://people.maths.ox.ac.uk/macdonald ... ood%29.pdf

I used to have this on my wall at Britannica till a woman from the copy department (English majors!) said that she found it lascivious. :lol: By the way, our physics and chemistry editors, both females and my friends, loved it. :mrgreen:

Love it! I'm going to pass it on. But lascivious? How come?
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

English majors, go figure! :lol:

It is now above 90 F and 90% humidity in my office, so I need to leave before I drown in a pool of perspiration. :sad:

Dang, I hate it when I don’t understand stories :-?

You don't have Red Riding Hood in Germany?

Yeah, thank you, we do have Rotkäppchen AKA Little Red Riding Hood in Germany; AFAIK it originated here ;-) Thankfully, we‘re getting more wolves meanwhile :twisted:

But the linked story itself goes just over my head (not that I’m really in distress about that). Only thing that immediately happened was that I wanted to take my red correction pen and change “lemmas” to “lemmata” :-D but I then again I know the EN speaking world also says “data” when it’s only about one datum and such things :roll:

Cordially, Tom
