Sue Jordan pose la question : I am looking for examples of estimates for underestimating and overestimating. When would you do each one. For my child age 11 6th grade. Penny Nom lui répond.
Adrian Valc pose la question : Long-time ago I red an article about surprizing (and in a way frustrating) results in math, for example the limit of a nicely defined infinite series which was believed to be a simple rational number, but later was determined to be a transcendent number that missed the rational value by an incredibly small amount (so for example the limit proved to be 2.75000...00137.. with a lot of 0's in between). I cannot find that article anymore, so i was wondering if you have any such examples, or you can point to any relevant information source? Chris Fisher lui répond.
