Calculus Is Deeply Irrational
It would ruin the &quot;joke&quot;, but probably should have be deeply transcendental...<p>The real numbers are much stranger than they first appear, and a lot of early pedagogy is designed so that you don&#x27;t look at this too hard.<p>After all, almost all reals are transcendental (but interestingly we only have proved a small handful of them).<p>Most numbers people have used in &quot;regular life&quot; are algebraic, obviously, but they are a countable subset so occur almost never, in the set.
