I remember in the mid 80's sitting at a restaurant table with some dude, me showing him the math/physics on a napkin the minimum amount of thrust needed to put a salt shaker into a Clark obit. Sadly, today I would need the help of Google to complete the same task.
In high school, I aced every single math test I've ever taken with the exception of the very last one. I made a one variable (maybe it was a constant) error due to racing the test to finish before the Valedictorian. I won the race, but at said cost.
Mathematics is the classification and study of all possible patterns.
