      It’s a formula very useful for a tone of engineering fields, electronic, mechanics, automatic control and probably a bunch more. I used it a tone in my early carrier, including the imaginary flavor.

        When I started Chem engineering in college, it blew me away that like 80% of lab math and analisis was just using the linear equation everyone bitched and moaned about how useless it was in high-school.

        Tonne not tone < tonne is the measurement/a lot, whilst tone is sound

        Flavour not flavor, you don’t want people thinking you’re a gross American.

          My field (cryptography) is unlikely to run into this, despite having some advanced math. There’s just not that much use for anything in 2D, and abstract algebra doesn’t bother with things as mundane as “numbers”.
