:Can you explain [[equivalance relations]] and the [[axiom of choice]], in terms of simpler concepts such as [[membership in a set]], and so forth? Maybe you should work on basic concepts like [[set]], [[empty set]], [[union]] & [[intersection]] first. Many times users have signed up here and immediately started on university-level math articles, but I have rarely been satisfied with any of their explanations. I feel the flaw is a failure to communicate basic concepts. So, start on those, please. For example, there's no point in jumping to college algebra if we don't even have an article explaining how to solve equations in one or two variables.
:Spewing forth abstruse, incomprehensible symbols is not in line with our goals here. If you have a craving to speak the language of higher mathematics - but lack the willingness to make your points accessible to high school kids - then Wikipedia might be a more congenial place for you. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 11:19, 8 January 2010 (EST)
