Above an alpine meadow they see a man in shorts and a heavy coat wearing a huge backpack. They let some of the hot air out of the bag and drift lower. Presently they realize they are completely lost. They get into an argument about the way that the balloon works and forget to navigate. Finding that there are hot air balloons for rent, they decide to make an ascension.
Administrator: “Three is prime, wait, I’ll have to get back to you.”Ī couple of physicists are at a conference with a day off in the middle.Social scientist: “Three is prime, four is not prime.Biologist: “Three is prime, five is prime, seven is prime, nine is prime.Student: “Dude, odd numbers are really prime!”.Computer scientist: “Three is prime, five is prime, seven is prime, SEGMENTATION FAULT…”.Chemist: “Three is prime, five is prime, seven is prime, nine is an experimental error, 11 is prime, 13 is prime, 15 suggests the proposition is false.”.Engineer: “Three is prime, five is prime, seven is prime.Mathematician: “Nine is the smallest counter example.Physicist: “Three is prime, five is prime, seven is prime, nine is not prime.☆ Different professions testing the proposition “all odd numbers bigger than 1 are prime”: There are quite a few jokes that have to do with the way that mathematicians view those in other areas or the way people in other areas view mathematicians. “From Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and all the children are above average.” ☆ Garrison Keeler (the worlds tallest radio comedian) created a wonderful mathematical joke in the sign-off for his weekly News from Lake Wobegon, to wit: ☆ The number 5! is equal to 120, not FIVE! ☆ Training in mathematics helps you to not be able to tell the difference between a coffee cup and a donut. ☆ Question: What do you get if you cross a mountain climber with a mosquito? Answer: Nothing, you cannot cross a scalar with a vector. ☆ Question: What is a polar bear? Answer: A rectangular bear after a coordinate transformation. ☆ Why are π/2 radians the right number of radians? ☆ There are 10 sorts of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don’t. Some math jokes require you to know special facts. (It is true that better directions can usually be written.) ☆ Question: What is 2n+2n? Answer: I’m not sure, but I think its from another country.Īnother source of mathematical humor is people not understanding the directions. Mother: That’s ridiculous, son! Pie are round. Son: Well, Ma, I learned that pie are squared. Mother: Son, what did you learn at university? ☆ The obtuse triangle is upset because it’s never right. ☆ Do you know what’s odd? Every other number. That leads to the following sort of joke. Mathematicians use words a little differently from other people. There are 20 jokes here – keep track of how many you get and that is your Mathemagician Rating. In this week’s blog, by request, there are nothing but jokes. Occupy Math has raised the issue of mathematical humor from time to time.
