So anyway, I was in math class today, and one of my students asked me if I liked Star Wars. When I replied in the affirmative, he asked if I would rather be Darth Vader or the Emperor. I thought a bit and then replied “Darth Vader.” “Well, then I’d better rewrite part of my paper,” was his reply. The paper is supposed to be a description of an algorithm for graphing an arbitrary rational function. It will be interesting (or possibly just pathetic) to see how this connects with interstellar war. If it is interesting enough I will let my readers know…
