Hello!


I am self-learning mathematics at the moment. My interest on mathematics was completely destroyed in high-school, after years ignoring it I've discovered it's interesting and beautiful. Now I'm planning to study it on university and even pursue a masters and a Ph.D! Yay!

I am very grateful for your $Time \cup Patience \cup Answers$. If my question is too stupid, blame these answerers.

If you want to talk, you can e-mail me: $gioxis@gmail \cdot com$


What is a Mathematician?

There are two popular guesses to what a mathematician is, and one popular conception of what a philosopher is.

Mathematician:

  1. A Mathematician is an incredible human calculator;
  2. A Mathematician is someone that deals with surreal-utopian levels of reality;

Philosopher:

  1. A philosopher is a semi-stoned dude who speculates about how the world would be if eggs had hair.

If you believe the second conception of what a mathematician is, then these are working philosophers of mathematics!


I am also a pseudo musician, I study piano and I used to make music with my computer.

comment Help me to find a way to do this repetitive stuff
The g is the point, I switched it because I couldn't make /. ToString[.] -> Graphics[{CMYKColor[x/a1, x/10, 0, x/a3], Rectangle[]}] work.

comment Trouble with Flatten[]
@DavidCarraher I want to do this. I made these functions, now I can make a bigger function that's a little more generalist. But it's still not working properly.

comment Trouble with Flatten[]
This is the output: Sequence[{{x1, 1, 3}, {x2, 1, 3}, {x3, 1, 3}, {x4, 1, 3}, {x5, 1, 3}, {x6, 1, 3}, {x7, 1, 3}, {x8, 1, 3}}]

I naively learned to go down some levels on a list with Flatten.

comment How can I create a table of sliders?
@gpap It is defined in the code, but I copied only what is relevant to the question.

comment Why does Evaluate[a[[1]]]=0 assign a value to a variable while a[[1]]=0 doesn't?
@AlexeyPopkov Oh, when I posted my comment, your comment wasn't shown here, slow internet. =/

@AlexeyPopkov It's not working here. When I press the + Book Button, it adds a book in the reading list, but trying to call the v1 variable still gives me a variable with no value.
