Re: married couples-how many ways
The purpose of computing is insight...
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

Re: married couples-how many ways
so, you use the immobile computer rather thsn the feminine mind?
'And fun? If maths is fun, then getting a tooth extraction is fun. A viral infection is fun. Rabies shots are fun.'
'God exists because Mathematics is consistent, and the devil exists because we cannot prove it'
I'm not crazy, my mother had me tested.

Re: married couples-how many ways
Nope and what is this feminine mind kaboobly doo? Intuition is used to form an ansatz, then the computer is brought in to try and verify it. Sometimes the computer is used first and then intuition brought to bear.

Re: married couples-how many ways
I do not know. You brought this term to me,
'And fun? If maths is fun, then getting a tooth extraction is fun. A viral infection is fun. Rabies shots are fun.'
'God exists because Mathematics is consistent, and the devil exists because we cannot prove it'
