*FUN FACTS*
-Favorite Color: Black
-Favorite Math Topic: Logic
-Favorite Math/Logic Joke: A writer, scientist, and mathematician are on a train in the countryside.
The writer spots a black sheep in the field and says "Look all the sheep in the country side must be black."
The scientist says "No way! Only some of the sheep in the country side are likely to be black."
The mathematician pauses for a moment and says "In at least one field in the countryside, the is at least one sheep with at least one side that is black." The farmer nearby looks up and says, “Actually, that sheep is just visiting from the next farm over.” XD
The moral of the story is that assumptions, no matter how logical they seem, can still be wrong if you don’t have all the information. Just when the writer, scientist, and mathematician think they’ve carefully defined the truth, reality proves to be more complex than they expected.
