Looks like the sound holes of a violin to me.
Oh look, it's a music major.
But they are not. Those are called f-holes.
F-holes are the name specifically for the holes in the violin family and the contrabass. The more general term is sound hole, which also includes the c-holes of the viol family or the large round hole of a guitar.
F-holes, in particular, are shaped pretty much exactly like an integration sign.
Thanks to my TI-89 I got a 3 on the AP Calc test and still don't get this joke.
Out of 100?
AP scores go from 1 to 5, with 5 being the best. A 3 indicates an average score. It will most likely not be enough to pass out of a college course, unless the university is less intensive in its calculus courses.
What does the symbol mean in linguistics?
If I remember correctly, it's IPA for "sh" sound.
voiceless post-alveolar fricative :)
It's merely a slightly longer sum, so what's the problem?
It mentions x^5
Just a polynomial is the easy case, though. Once you start adding other operations, then it gets spicy.
See folks? Meeting dry humor with dry humor---this is the way.
