I found the whole "dont take your meds" thing extremely offensive as I have family members with schizophrenia

Never seen it but I bet its about a retard that does math

Never seen it, what is it about?

Not as informative as I expected, and very, very sad.

John Nash, a mathemetician economist etc, Nash Equilibrium in Game Theory is named after him

Was that what the movie settled on?
I know Nash is anti-meds but I thought the movie came down on the other side.

>> No.3725505

I liked how the scene where he comes up with the nash equilibrium (the bar scene with the girls), doesnt actually describe a Nash equilibrium.

It's not surprising someone would go made trying to find rational behavior in a purely irrational transaction.

>> No.3725521

>>3725512
It's surprising that I managed to gain anything rational out of that rather irrational sentence, however.

Not really, given how much redundancy is built into the english language.

It says in the window

1 >= pi >= 0

All my wtf

>> No.3725688

>>3725679

The symbol for pi doesnt always mean pi, as in the 3.142...

>> No.3725693

>>3725688
I know, but why use a constant that everyone uses as a variable, doesn't make sense...
like:
2 > e > 1

>> No.3725700

>>3725679

Fuck that, isn't it also stating that 1 = 0.

>> No.3725706

>>3725693
>>3725679
pi (the symbol) in statistics means P, so the probability is between 0 and 1.

>> No.3725724

how come all aspie fags shit up their windows with math???

<span class="math"> e [/spoiler] is used in different ways in different context, don't assume the one you are most familiar with is the only way people use that particular character. In group theory, <span class="math"> e [/spoiler] is often used to represent the identity element; in linear algebra we sometimes write <span class="math"> e_i [/spoiler] for basis vectors.

Similarly, <span class="math"> \pi [/spoiler] is used for projections in vector spaces, an operator in groups acting on sets, and even a prime element in structures other than the ones you've heard of. Math can use whatever symbols it wants, as long as you define the parameters before using them.

Nope. It is stating that 0<=1, which it is.
