I will admit, after I finished Calc 1, I came across this yet again via the random button, and kind of rolled my eyes. Then I read the title text, and this became one of my favorite comics. --[[Special:Contributions/140.198.42.64|140.198.42.64]] 00:19, 20 March 2013 (UTC) | I will admit, after I finished Calc 1, I came across this yet again via the random button, and kind of rolled my eyes.

This type of generalization also has a special name called "Stereotype threat". Research shows that women/girls who are good at math (identify as good at math) will do worse on hard math questions when they think (consciously or unconsciously) that her own personal failings will reflect on the negative stereotype. (Real example: a group of professors asked SAT testing body to ask for demographic questions (gender/race) after the test instead of before.)

:It is. Consider the indefinite integral of 0dx. All constants have this derivative. pi would only be one of them. You would need to specify pi+C, with C being any constant, or simplify it to just C, any constant. {{unsigned ip|172.64.236.106|23:14, 11 July 2023}} | :It is.
