RE: Can we trust peer-reviewed papers?

Well Tesla is wrong if that is what you are wondering. Like I said, he went pretty loonie in his older years. Wireless power xD.

Why do we teach calculus immediately after algebra? As opposed to something really useful, such as discreet mathematics.

... so calculus is not useful, got it. Can you name 3 things that involve change of any kind?

My mind is open, if you have anything to share to support your points I would love to be linked.


Sure most people my age don't have too many units - I give you that one.

If you have something logical to say please do, otherwise I am done wasting time with someone like you.

Sort:  

I am one of the few people that I know that knows what calculus is for and uses it. For everyone else, especially engineers, calculus is a waste of time. The formulas have already been worked out.

However, my statement is extremely meta.
If you aren't taught calculus, then the entire math is in danger of collapsing upon itself. Calculus adds a self reinforcing loop to the structure. So that any person who is decent at math doesn't immediately find its edges and start to ask the teacher embarrassing questions.

I don't even know what to tell you.

Calculus is very important for any science feild.
