STUDENS GIGLES

The Dictionary: what mathematics professors say and what they mean by it

Clearly: I don't want to write down all the "in-between" steps.

Trivial: If I have to show you how to do this, you're in the wrong class.

It can easily be shown: No more than four hours are needed to prove it.

Check for yourself: This is the boring part of the proof, so you can do it
on your own time.

Hint: The hardest of several possible ways to do a proof.

Brute force: Four special cases, three counting arguments and two long
inductions.

Elegant proof: Requires no previous knowledge of the subject matter and is
less than ten lines long.

Similarly: At least one line of the proof of this case is the same as
before.

Two line proof: I'll leave out everything but the conclusion, you can't
question 'em if you can't see 'em.

Briefly: I'm running out of time, so I'll just write and talk faster.

Proceed formally: Manipulate symbols by the rules without any hint of their
true meaning.

Proof omitted: Trust me, It's true.

Approximately ten excuses for not doing homework:

- I accidentally divided by zero and my paper burst into flames.

- I could only get arbitrarily close to my textbook. I couldn't actually
reach it.

- I have the proof, but there isn't room to write it in this margin.

- I was watching the World Series and got tied up trying to prove that it
converged.

- I have a solar powered calculator and it was cloudy.

- I locked the paper in my trunk but a four-dimensional dog got in and ate
it.

- I couldn't figure out whether I am the square of negative one or I am the
square root of negative one.

- I took time out to snack on a doughnut and a cup of coffee, and then I
spent the rest of the night trying to figure which one to dunk.

- I could have sworn I put the homework inside a Klein bottle, but this
morning I couldn't find it.
