- That seems to be the big question these days. Is it hard for girls, boys,
- adults, toy companies, mathematicians, college students, or anyone else?
- I've spoken with many people -including a math professor- who swear math
- is the hardest thing on the face of this earth. I know others who laugh
- insanely and say math is child's play. I want to take a little poll:
-
- How hard do you find mathematics? Were you one of those people who
- dreaded cracking a book or one of those people who did calculus in junior
- high school for fun?
-
- Send replies to frisinv@alleg.edu. I'll post the results.
