As much as I do?
I hold a B.S. in Physics with a minor in math... not to even mention linear and abstract algebra, that's a whole different animal from classical algebra and calculus.
Hunting those beasts is now gray for me

Stop using faggot analogies.
Even I know more maths than you, and I'm only at A2 level.

Oh really? Do elaborate!
No? Didn't think so myself.

Do provide a challenge, if you don't believe me!
I challenge you to math me!
That sounded kinda weird, didn't it?

We'll start with a few simple things:
Show me why the group
I of all imaginary powers
i^k for any natural number k is isomorphic to the group
R of the rotational symmetries of the square.
Multiply these permutations: (1 2 3 4) (3 2 4 1)
Find the value of 159 in Z_9.
These are fairly simple topics for their area of math, so if you "don't remember" how to do these then I don't believe you.

Just answer why the hell any normal person (not math/physics person) needs to know about i (imaginary number/square root of -1) and advanced calculus. Math that.

Explain a bit further, please...it's math challenge, not english
what has the i^k function got to do with rotational symmetries of the square?
"Find the value of 159 in Z_9" This one is too ecliptic to be standing on its own, but what connection has it got with multiplying permutations? there's no "Z" in the brackets...
I want to prove a point here, but this many "big" english words make my head spin!
I'm on a math exam here, not english
