How does that logical map work?

If I try doing it as a function, it just a parabola. How do you approach so I get these crazy chaotic results?

Is it true that women live longer because they pee sitting down?

When did you fall in love with math, /sci/ and what's the last interesting mathematical fact you learned?

I thought I hated and was bad at math until I took Calculus I sophomore year. We were learning about the limit definition of a derivative and I was just blown away at the fact that we could formalize such a (seemingly) bizarre concept.

I'm currently taking a course called Dynamical Systems and Chaos and bifurcation diagrams seem really cool.

Also, manifolds are dope :)

enjoy this one

it's all in the name

Dear /sci/, what should I do if I think I have stumbled onto the theory of everything.

I don't understand the logistic map and the Feigenbaum constants.
Could you please make me understand them? How does the connection to the Mandelbrot set arise?

Chaos.

why don't you like harsh noise music. feedback is one of the true sources of chaos
think of a simple logistic map. certain parameters of feedback can be totally chaotic

The physics is easy, the non-linear dynamics is hard.
