The fact that the top 3 didn't change at all last year (I think) might be a leetle indication that this might be a bit hard. And Caius were looking damn good the other day when I was out rocking around in my IV.

which boat though? there were 3 squads in operation before term started - 1st mens' (about 10-11 people), 2nd mens' (about 11 people), 3rd mens' (about 10 people), and we have a 4th mens' squad as well (probably another 10 or so). there are plans to try and get 2 boats to get onto bumps: caius M5, not seen on the river since... god knows when :rolleyes:

talking about pembroke M1, quite amusing, actually. we were starting 2nd in our division today, and pem M1 were chasing us, and well, they nearly caught us. they were talking it up, saying how much ground they made on us, at least until our coach told their coach that we were in fact caius M3 :aetsch:

which, to be honest, isn't far from the truth - i figure our crew only had about 4 people who would actually make caius lent's M2. :redface:

caius m3, here i come

Obv not, he's not a REAL mathmo.

no, he's an IMAGINARY mathmo.

Sorry, that was attrocious.

or a COMPLEX mathmo

ok we'll stop now!

Please do. :biggrin:

I've been wanting to tell my maths joke all day....

f(x)=5x+7 walks into a bar.

"Get out!" cries the barman, "We don't serve functions in here."

:biggrin:

one day in mathstown, e^x was happily plotting (functions dont plod, they plot) along the road, when he heard nearby screams. Suddenly the constant C came shooting out into the road screaming his head off. "Argh" he cried, "SAVE ME", he screamed. e^x was confused, and asked C what the matter was...to which he replied "It's a derivative, he's escaped from Calculus Island and is differentiating everyone, I'm doomed....doooooooooooooooooooooomed, save yourself!". e^x however, was very calm, he replied "I'm e^x, i'm derivatives can't harm me!"...so he set off in search of the derivative. He followed the trial of mass differentiation and eventually found her, wildly differentiating the poor constants, and multilating the defenseless simple functions. e^x aproached the derivative and said "Hello, I'm e^x", to which the derivative replied, with a slight smile, "Hello, I'm d/dy"

the above is possibly the worst maths "joke" i have ever heard anyone ever tell me!

(functions dont plod, they plot) !

should have just stopped there. I must admit, I actually laughed at that. :redface:

d[e^x]/dx = e^x (so the "derivative monster" wont affect it).

The same cannot be said for d[e^x]/dy though....

Can't believe i got that :s-smilie:

I've got another one.

e^x and polynomial both attended the same party one day. Polynomial was speeding around introducing itself, and having a lot of fun, whilst e^x sat in a corner, by itself and made no effort to talk to anybody else. Polynomial spotted e^x, went up to it and asked: "e^x - why don't you integrate?" e^x replied "it's no use, it doesn't make a difference whether I do or whether I don't."

ooo i see...

still not quite what i would call a joke though...

why is this thread always about maths!?!? almost every time i check up on it it's about maths or rowing!! :secruity::secruity::secruity::secruity:
