I would try to explain to you what integrating means... but I have no fucking clue, it's something you just do haha.


Oh, so it's something like breathing?

lol


For a maths geek.... yes.

p.s. Wiki might help to explain... but it might confuse you further. I have remembered it's a way of finding the area under a curve... oh wait that's differentiation. So I dunno, probly best to ask wiki lol.

Integration is a core concept of advanced mathematics, specifically in the fields of calculus and mathematical analysis. Given a function f(x) of a real variable x and an interval [a,b] of the real line, the integral


is equal to the area of a region in the xy-plane bounded by the graph of f, the x-axis, and the vertical lines x = a and x = b, with areas below the x-axis being subtracted.

Ehhhh yeah sure I get it now!!! lmao

I gave a pep talk to someone who was about to quit their job due to a terrible co-worker. He just needed some perspective. Namely, even if she is taking credit for your work, you are leaving in a few months and you will be able to talk about what you did with future employees and you will be able to give yourself credit.

Dyed Easter eggs, gave 3 kid baths, and one "baby's first real haircut" because her hair was a pure fuzzball in the back. We're going to get together with real live 3-dimensional friends this afternoon and I am giddy with excitement!

While I am happy for you, as a 1-D friend of yours, I am a bit wounded by this statement. ; )
