@SimplyBeautifulArt my high school geometry was just basic angles, proving some theorems, and basic definitions. In college, analytic geometry was the idea of using matrices and vectors to rigorously define the concept of isometric transformations and whatnot. If you mean the former, then that is not considered "analytic".

the analytic geometry refers specifically to assigning values to points and using vectors, matrices, and/or complex numbers.

anything else is considered theoremic or done purely by use of the original axioms and proving abstract constructions exist and have basic properties in the general case. It's actually considered more basic as it doesn't need any knowledge of linear algebra.

@SimplyBeautifulArt I'm now at home on holiday, so there's a chance that I'll be around, but most likely on my Mobile, so of limited use

I'll be back working in 3 weeks

@Typhon ACM is a mod who wants this to do well, so they may have popped in here to see how it's going, or something may have been flagged. Either way, I'm politely suggesting that asking things like "Why we're you even called here?" then saying they were overreacting may not be the best idea - they have as much right to be here as anyone else and they have enough experience of chats going out of hand to know when best to do what

@Typhon and aren't you forgetting someone? ;) Nevertheless, this is a reasonable concern - I have no knowledge of what these 'calculus I' and 'calculus II' entails, being from a different country entirely, but have been doing calculus for years. You'll just have to wait and see! As we don't really know how good we are at this in this context

@Mithrandir24601 you're teaching a class?

@Mithrandir24601 they deleted a whole conversation we were having the other night that wasn't really rude or off topic which is I was saying that it made no sense to do that. I hadn't seen them here before so I assumed they came solely to do that. I was asking in the sense of "what brought you here to do that". As in did someone flag it?

@Typhon I'll be helping SBA with theirs (once it reaches October at least)

@Typhon someone felt it was rude. May or may not have been ACM - I don't know if it was flagged or not, but ACM has been here before and has expressed an interest in this going well, so clearly felt it was the best thing to do

@Typhon Personal attacks - like calling someone dishonest, or claiming other people shouldn't trust/"concern themselves with" them - are rude and a violation of the Be Nice policy. I don't need anything to "bring" me here to act on such violations, and it is none of your business whether there was a flag or not. If you consider your (now deleted) utterances a "nice conversation" I strongly suggest you recalibrate your notion of niceness.

@heather Oh, btw, I forgot to mention one more thing.... so you happen to remember my meta post about other math Q/A sites and similar things? Well, I happen to know some people from Kik who happen to be interested in this.... :-)

@Simply hmm, I'll have to look up that meta post, but that's good you found others who are interested!

@heather Actually, I think I'll work separately with them on Kik

Being they can't chat in here and stuff

sure.

how's the weather looking?

@heather Very nice. A good "calm before the storm" lol

hopefully it isn't too bad where you're at.

Yeah, hopefully
