Post N°8

Hello world! This time is the turn of a subject that I enjoyed during the semester. That’s difficult! But if I must choose, Introduction to Calculus is the one. Usually in classes we have our professor explaining mathematical concepts in the whiteboard, defining some others and doing some exercises so we can apply what we have been learning. In this subject we learn mostly about functions and how to they behave in different contexts, and we see a lot of functions, like the quadratic function, the logarithmic function or the exponential function. At first it may not seem like a very entertaining subject to study, I mean, it’s math’s! How math’s can be enjoyable!? But when you go deeper into the concepts and other stuff you get to know some very strange facts about mathematics that are not simple to the eye, for example the limit of a function. The limit is something so strange and confusing but in an almost magical way it works fine and with that we can do things that were impossible to do, like dividing by zero! Those things make me enjoy the subject and make me wait for more of this crazy stuff in the future.
