wtf?!?!?!?!

show that 1=0.

i can show u it's false

that's easy to prove. obviously by definition 1 is the successor of 0 in the natural number set
and by peano's axioms for natural numbers, 0 cannot be the successor of any natural number

let's assume 1=0
the successor of 0 is 1
and 1=0
hence the successor of 0 is 0, which is a contradiction.
Thus 1!=0

lol. I saw a way to prove 1=0 using our daily limit laws. Some fundamental mistakes led to that.

1. a = b + 1
2. (a-b)a = (a-b)(b+1)
3. a2 - ab = ab + a - b2 - b
4. a2 - ab -a = ab + a -a - b2 - b
5. a(a - b - 1) = b(a - b - 1)
6. a = b
7. b + 1 = b
8. Therefore, 1 = 0

good example of false proof

ian, your proof involves a step which does not obey the calcellation law for multiplication.

(ab=ac => b=c) <=> a!=0

16 - 36 = 25 - 45
4^2 - 9*4 = 5^2 - 9*5
4^2 - 9*4 + 81/4 = 5^2 - 9*5 + 81/4
(4 - 9/2)^2 = (5 - 9/2)^2
4 - 9/2 = 5 - 9/2
4 = 5

yeah my math tutor used to tell us that too.

i mean your explanation.

ian u should type out the proof that i showed u. That's uber cool.

yeah. there are actually more math fallacies out there. will post it soon.

i doesnt belong to here..

duh duh. enough fallacies.
talk laplace, talk fourier, talk matrix

which one? revolution? reloaded?

stop replying.......... i wanna an xin go sleep

okok go sleep ba.. u must be cursing me there right now LOL

laplace transform

L(f) = int( ((e^-st)f(t)), 0, infinity)

SILENCE. I'LL KILL U

daniel

OMG.. we are going nuts

daniel post smth about ur LVL2000 maths modules. surprise us

wtf!@!!! u guys are crazy

mathcians are geeks

laplace transform.. i saw it under Mathematics in the syllabus of E&E Engineering under Imperial College.

laplace transform is important for engineers because we need it to solve differential equations. And we need differential equations a lot in modelling and stuff. Sometimes like reactors and err......... stuff. Heh.
