Must be interesting to see how moral and flanking will transform the battle equation's results. Its really nice that you bring such nose-bleeding concepts into laymen's terms with your stories, please continue to do so. Hoping to read more good readings from you.
(P.S.: Would be great to hear an equation-driven story about how scientists can help farmers predict which crop will yield the best profit or which crop is the best to plant for a specific month or day) TIA! :P
I think I will write a weekly story-math post and a weekly abstract-math post.
PS Nice idea. However, the problem with crop-growth/harvest equations that they are not really derived in a natural way. I think they essentially are derived experimentally. So the equations don't arise as natural as in this post.
I see, thanks for your input. I also think there are a lot of factors to consider for that, you might end up writing a novel.
I'm looking forward for your upcoming story-math posts (and try to dabble with the abstract ones too :D)
