What’s something most people don’t understand?
I’ve been wondering what to write for this prompt, and I realise that apart from basic addition (arithmetic) people struggle with calculations and formulas.
I was dropped down into the CSE group when I did maths at school. In the end that did me a favour. The exam was like a normal lesson and I got an o level pass.
I just about understood quadratic equations but never liked having to go through the stages of the calculations. I could follow logarithms, but never did calculus. My understanding of sine, co-sine and tangents left something to be desired.
But at least I understood numbers. There is something like dyslexia that some people have, it’s called dyscalculia. As people become aware of it, it might explain why they struggle.

I have dyscalculia. It’s a really difficult thing to work around when numbers move all over the place and look like letters. Algebra was the end of the road for me. Later I learned if I didn’t have to write things down, I’d do OK.

It’s interesting how the mind works with abstract shapes, either letters or numbers, or it must be the same with characters such as in Chinese or Japanese script. The human mind is incredibly creative, but not always infallible. X
