Back in the day, exaggerated height was associated with dimwittedness. Was there any basis for this?

Previous thread >>16256996

This is one of the board's newest generals. Fairly high activity due to edge lords trying to be funny but instead spreading facts about the absolute state of our world.

Intro stats is fairly easy, intermediate stats come the programming and we have already have several battles about what language is the best in the thread. Nobody uses SAS funnily enough, SPSS has had some people trying to joust the edgelords who are into R and C++, while the stata children are silent as usual.

Come one, come all. State your dumb questions, /pol/tardy or not. Some fairly useful and funny math is showcased in this thread.

yo whatup sci

I'm looking to start a career in diagnosis of disease, medicine, therapy, etc.

any trusted sites I can get into the habit of checking for the latest and greatest in medical research?

I've got a high school level of understanding when it comes to bio/chem/physics but I'm enrolled in an anatomy/medical terminology course at my local community college

so again, just looking for trusted, reliable sources of cutting edge medical insights

many thanks!!

Lets compose a graph together

A node is a tradable object
If you want to sell something add the node to the list and draw a green vertex away from it
If you want to buy something, add the node to the list and draw a red arrow going towards it
Lets do it for every item at market on the planet
Now, ask a super quantum computer match a node with a green stick with a red stick and find the permutation of the graph that Maxes connections

The graph topology that has the most connections is economically most efficient

----------

Define the function [math]f(s)=\zeta(s)-\frac{1}{s-1}[/math]. Note that [math]f(s)[/math] is analytic in the entire complex plane except for a simple pole at [math]s=1[/math]. This follows from the fact that the zeta function has a simple pole at [math]s=1[/math] and the function [math]\frac{1}{s-1}[/math] has a simple pole at [math]s=1[/math].

Using the residue theorem, we have:[eqn]\oint_{|s-1|=\frac{1}{2}}f(s)ds=2\pi i\cdot \text{Res}_{s=1}f(s)=2\pi i\cdot \frac{1}{s-1}[/eqn]To see this, we can use the residue theorem, which states that for a function [math]g(s)[/math] analytic inside a simple closed contour [math]C[/math] except for a finite number of poles, we have:[eqn]\oint_C g(s)ds=2\pi i\sum_{k=1}^n\text{Res}_{s=a_k}g(s)[/eqn]where [math]a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_n[/math] are the poles of [math]g(s)[/math] inside the contour [math]C[/math]. In this case, we have [math]g(s)=f(s)[/math] and [math]C[/math] is the circle [math]|s-1|=\frac{1}{2}[/math]. The only pole of [math]f(s)[/math] inside this contour is at [math]s=1[/math], so we have:[eqn]\oint_{|s-1|=\frac{1}{2}}f(s)ds=2\pi i\cdot \text{Res}_{s=1}f(s)=2\pi i\cdot \frac{1}{s-1}[/eqn]By the Cauchy integral formula, we have:[eqn]f(s)=\frac{1}{2\pi i}\oint_{|s-1|=\frac{1}{2}}\frac{f(z)}{z-s}dz[/eqn]To see this, we can use the Cauchy integral formula, which states that for a function [math]g(s)[/math] analytic inside a simple closed contour [math]C[/math], we have:[eqn]g(s)=\frac{1}{2\pi i}\oint_C \frac{g(z)}{z-s}dz[/eqn]where [math]s[/math] is any point inside the contour [math]C[/math]. In this case, we have [math]g(s)=f(s)[/math] and [math]C[/math] is the circle [math]|s-1|=\frac{1}{2}[/math]. Therefore, we have:[eqn]f(s)=\frac{1}{2\pi i}\oint_{|s-1|=\frac{1}{2}}\frac{f(z)}{z-s}dz[/eqn]
