comment How do I check if any element in a list is positive?
@Mr.Wizard Sorry about that. Quite honestly, for some reason I thought I had accepted an answer awhile ago, and didn't realize that was not the case until yesterday when I got a notification that I had received a badge for the question. My bad.

Also, could you explain the use of _? here? I can't seem to find this in the documentation.

+1. By the way, I've noticed a lot of Mathematica functions end with "Q", and it seems like all such functions are meant to answer a "Yes or No Question". Is this indeed what the "Q" stands for, "question"?

@b.gatessucks Yeah, sorry about that. That was a typo on here. In Mathematica, I was using f[x_]:=....

comment How to plot Fit functions?
As an aside, how is one supposed to go about typesetting multi-line code on this website? Is there a better way to do it than exiting the code environment, adding spaces, and entering the code environment again?

comment Manipulating Equations
Why does (#-2)&/@(3x+5==2) work, but not ((3x+5==2)-2). My understanding is that (#-2)& defines a function that takes one unnamed argument and /@(3x+5==2) sends the argument (3x+5==2) into the function, which, I would have thought, would be equivalent to ((3x+5==2)-2), but evidently it is not. Why?
