Let me also remind you that zero, like all of mathematics, is fictional and an idealization. It is impossible to reach absolute zero temperature… — Doron Zeilberger Copy Share Image
No Victor, you got it backwards, you should evaluate these integrals non-rigorously if you can, and rigorously if you must. — Doron Zeilberger Copy Share Image
Mathematics my foot! Algorithms are mathematics too, and often more interesting and definitely more useful. — Doron Zeilberger Copy Share Image

When a problem seems intractable, it is often a good idea to try to study "toy" versions of it in the hope that as… — Doron Zeilberger Copy Share Image
Regardless of whether or not God exists, God has no place in mathematics, at least in my book. — Doron Zeilberger Copy Share Image
You can keep counting forever. The answer is infinity. But, quite frankly, I don't think I ever liked it. I always found something repulsive… — Doron Zeilberger Copy Share Image
