Is this an I, or a hint that her feelings are complex?

i will always be current. j will always be the square root of -1. Nothing will ever override this in my brain

Capital J is current density, lowercase j is √1

As my math teacher said:

Ich ziehe meine Wurzel aus einer Unbekannten.

Sorry, I don't think this works when translated.

I pull up the root of an unknown.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Meaning a: I take the root of a variable

Meaning b: I pull my "root" out of an unkown woman

Ich kenn den anders. Wahre Mathematik ist es, wenn man schon morgens seine Wurzel aus einer Unbekannten zieht xD

Kept reading that as iota. "I ought to" miss you

In my humble opinion e^iτ^ is a lot prettier

Reading the comments here made me think about this!

I don't really like this syntax. √ should be used on positive reals only

That's my take, change my mind
