Shortest Math Joke Ever

[desteffy]

Let epsilon be less than zero...

 

[lobadobadingdong]

1+1=10

my joke is shorter.

 

[neonerd]

explanation please? 😕

[GigaCluster]

Would it be just as funny if you were to set epsilon to zero?

(I am assuming we're talking about the delta-epsilon concept for limits?)

 

[SynthDude2001]

I voted "HAHA" even though it wasn't that funny.

7-8-9

hehehhe mine is better and people actually get it.

 

[Gibson486]

the only thing i know episilon is used for is permitivity in electromagnetics. permitivity can't be negative, but i still do not see what is funny.

 

[imported_Lucifer]

HAHAHAHAHA!! :laugh:

 

[b0mbrman]

Meh

 

[deftron]

Why is 3 so fat?

Cause it's always sitting right next to pie



:laugh: haha

 

[Anubis]

hahahah, the derivative gives you a much better answer😉

 

[aplefka]

These jokes suck.

Except Drakkon's :laugh:

In a certain class or two all math majors take their jr or senior year most of the proofs start out with or include the phrase

"let epsilon be greater than zero... then there exists delta such that ..."

This could have to do with limits or continuity

EDIT: You may even see this in freshman calculus if you really talk about the theory of what limits are. Otherwise you would see plenty of it later in real analysis.
