My maths lecturer had the worst handwriting imaginable. Basically, it was like she went up to the whiteboard, let her hand become possessed by some demonic headless chicken and wrote equations.

It got to the stage where half the lecture was spent by us asking what she had written and her getting more and more annoyed. This wasn't a case of people not understanding the equations, but rather her complete ineptitude of explaining what was going on and covering it with squiggles. We tried speaking to our chief lecturer about it but there wasn't any chance of changing lecturers, there wasn't any budget.

I had to repeat the class the next year, although the instant I found she was teaching maths again, I dropped out and went to a different college. Worked out in my favour I think.

It is, but trancendentalize is a word only a Dalek would love.

I love statistics; does that make me weird, or just a few standard deviations away from the mean?

Carl-E:
Above the mean, I think! 

That's my hypothesis, and I'm stickin' to it!

Naw, stats is (are?) fun - or at the very least interesting. Well, the numbers themselves aren't, but poking them so see what they mean and can do is.

Carl-E:
That one was pretty funny, but it's not how p-values work...

I put this on the cover of all my stats final exams;




Most of them get the joke...
