I'm too sloppy.
Yesterday I went to my topology tutorial, which gave me a lot of hope. Nothing was exterior to the closure of the open ball that is my understanding zone [wee topology-joke there].
Afterwards we went to the pub and chatted stuff, then, wonderfully, Ford and his M209ers arrived. I needed to head home but I imagine that much talking and drinking happened after I'd left. I certainly hope so.
Today I bracketed about five hours of revision around a couple of hours of walking to-and-from my school and putting away exam desks.
There was much mumbling about sequences in topological spaces going on during this work-walk process—I still don't get these, I suspect that I'm missing something obvious.
So sloppy?
I started some solitaire stuff the other day. What I posted isn't wrong, the topology is probably the right one, nothing I say is an outright lie. But in every other way it is wrong.
As I work my way through the books I notice the, slightly, wrong assumptions that I have made along the way. Sloppy.
As soon as I thought about how I would code it I saw where I had gone wrong. I'll leave the tripe that I wrote-up up, but I'm going to have take some time to think about this.
[For affecionados I created a topological space that wasn't Hausdorff, so it couldn't be a metric space. And yet I wanted a metric.
I think that this is the right topological space to consider, we just have to forget about a metric. A metric which is difficult anyway.]
i'll never be a mathematician
