Ok, I understand a little better now - earlier I thought you were talking about the actual titles of the song rather than the lyrics. _________________

Sitting in the hallway, waiting for my first class this morning, I got to hear a lecture that ended with a discussion of 1001 Arabian Nights.
Last night, my 3 year old sister put a paper towel on the floor and put her arms out like Jasmine to "fly on a magic carpet." (Still working on the dragon slayer ) _________________

This is not really a coincidence, but I thought it was funny. My Drawing teacher yesterday was telling us how seeing the angles in art is sometimes like Algebra (Numbers-an artists worst enemy!!). Then he went into a brief history on how we came to use Arabic numbers and the word "Algebra". It's derived from the Arabic word "al-jabar", which means "the balance". So then he says "There's another math term that begins with 'Al'. Can anyone think of it?" So me being the intelligent person I am blurted out Aladdin and he laughed at me.  |

Algorithms are evil incarnate. You know why? Because it comes from a word that Persian author whose first two names are Abu Ja'far (Mohammed ibn Mūsā al-Khowārizmī is the rest).
For examples of the crockery known as algorithms, go here and prepared to be confused. http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Oracle/7650/examples.html |
