Huberman math

When your math is dubious

"hey Andrew, what do you reckon odds are of heads if I flip this coin 3 times"
"well, it's 50% heads each time, and 50 x 3, so there's a 150% chance of heads"
"nahh bro, I don't think so, that's some Huberman math"

Rager Math

Math that is clearly incorrect by a far off means of numbers that make you get Forrest Whitaker eye when trying to read it.

When that kid went to the front of the class and wrote on the board 7-2=597.22, I knew he only knew Rager math

Singapori Math

A kind of alien math from a rebel island that was once part of Malaysia, where they learn and teach math word problems in a local dialect called Singlish, using rectangles, lines, and dotted lines, which the people there call “bar models,” with most of them looking arguably ugly.

Local teachers told an Englishman that Singapori Math is a rojak or mélange of methodologies and pedagogies, with ingredients from both the East and the West—when the island was trying to solve its population’s high innumeracy rate in the seventies.

Fight-or-Flight Math

When it is humanly understandable to give up instead of persevering when faced with a false start or failure in solving a math problem—when the pain-and-gain mindset is often missing among struggling or frustrated students, who mistakenly thought that only those blessed or born with the “mathematical gene” could do math.

Fight-or-flight math makes it hard for us to think clearly, logically, and reflexively. Let not negative emotions take control of our reactions.

Maths ting

A UK street term describing a child of two hybrids of different ethnicity.

When a man who is of multiple ethnicity breeds with a woman who is also of a different multiple ethnicity they produce a person with multiple ethnic genes.

Example 1:

Man who is half white half asian breeds with a half white half black woman creates a maths ting.

Example 2: (BASED ON A TRUE STORY AND INSPIRATION FOR THE ABOVE TERM)

Two men with machetes rob a man:

Man 1: "Gimmie all your money blud!"

Victim: "okay please don't hurt me"

Man 3: "wait fam, what iz you?"

Man 1: "allow it man he's a maths ting, ain't nobody got time for that now hurry up before we shank you blud!!"

Man gives him the money but they attempt to stab the victim who runs for his life any way coz that's the UK nowadays.
