Math Skills

Since I've started grad school, I've noticed a significant increase in my advanced math skills at the expense of my simple math skills.
This basically sums up the turn my math skills have taken. For those that are curious, a diffeomorphism is a smooth map which has a smooth inverse. It's a topic usually discussed in algebraic topology.

When asking our math stats professor if we would need a calculator for the exam we took a couple weeks ago, he actually said "There probably won't be any numbers on it." He was true to his word. About the only numbers on it were the numbers to the problems. In case you don't believe me, here's a couple of problems from the latest homework.
