Dear Mr. Williams:
Thank you very much for being able to send me the wrong letter, my friend made a serious mistake, this letter will appear in the Kingdom of Fidiktli. What a gentleman you are!
I need to apologize to you. Mr. Warren's math class was over when I got your reply. The distance from Roon to Nolan is too far, and my homework has been completely ruined. But I sent your reply to Mr. Warren, I was trying to understand those headache symbols, they look very interesting, but Mr. Warren said, you must be a highly respected probability scientist... or A seasoned gambler.
I am sure a gentleman of your caliber would not be caught in a casino, and Mr. Warren admits that your mathematical talents are unmatched. We checked the mathematics papers in recent years and found that no one has studied probability so deeply. Those arrogant scholars always think that only gamblers can study probability!
Mr. Williamette, I swear to the spirit of nature that your knowledge will never be made public. But why not write this knowledge into a paper and publish it? I'm sure you'll be famous for it!
Thank you again for your reply, although I did not do well in math class, I still hope to have the opportunity to discuss mathematics or literature with you.
Note: I am sending a small amount of kroner in an envelope, as a thank you for your reply, please do not refuse, it is my kindness.
your faithful,
Mary
Reaching out and twisting the envelope, there was a neatly folded small paper package inside. Jenkins cut it open with scissors and counted two red bills from it. This is the coin of the Kingdom of Hampavo, called the krona, and the exchange rate with the gold pound of the Kingdom of Fidiktli is about 1:3. Jenkins is not interested in this aspect, and it was his father who asked him to be familiar with the currencies of various countries.
"Two pieces of 100 crowns, converted into gold pounds, is 620 pounds?"
Jenkins couldn't believe it. He reread the letter just now, and probably guessed that Miss Mary's family should be excellent, and... she misunderstood that Jenkins was a crazy mathematician who didn't know much about the world.
This can be seen from the honorific title between the lines.
"Chocolate, I'll buy you better cat food tomorrow!"
He squinted at the cat and waved the red currency in his hand, but the kitten just stared at it for a while, then got down again and was not interested.
The banking industry in this world has just started, and it was originally opened by the [Travel and Contract] Church for the convenience of travelers. Currency can be exchanged there, and Jenkins plans to settle the family affairs tomorrow, so he won't go to his father's place.
Miss Mary still used the extremely expensive snow paper in her letter this time. According to the speed of the reply, I am afraid it is not an ordinary post.
"Reply to..."
Jenkins filled his pen with ink and pulled the kerosene lamp over the dining table to illuminate the white paper in front of him. His current financial situation does not allow him to buy expensive letter paper. The paper he uses now is the church’s internal office document paper, which is the kind of paper Captain Bincy used when he first reviewed Jenkins, which is only a notch worse than modern printing paper. document paper. Dad had a stack for writing reports, so he took a few sheets at random.
Dear Miss Mary:
"Cross it out, it's too intimate."
Dear Miss Mary:
I have received your reply.
I am honored by your kindness and honored by your appreciation. Thanks for the cron, it really helped me a lot.
I don't want to deceive you, but you may have misunderstood me. I am not a so-called mathematician, I can only be regarded as a mathematics lover. On the contrary, I have some accomplishments in literature.
I read about the paper proposals, but my knowledge and the reality of heavy work did not allow me to delve deeply into the fascinating field of mathematics. I will attach my unsystematic studies of probability at the end of the letter, if you are interested, please publish them, but do not attribute my name.
I hate being exposed to the public, although it can bring me fame and change my life, but I hate this change!
You don't have to worry about this, it is an honor to be a sage believer to spread my knowledge to the public. At the same time, I also hope that my proposal will not cause you any trouble.
Thank you again for your generosity, and I would be happy to be your pen pal to discuss mathematics and literature topics with you.
May you always smile and be well!
Note: I am a believer in inheriting the sage, and I swear to the sage, all the theories in the notes at the end of the letter are presented in this world for the first time by my pen.
sincerely yours,
Jenkins R.Williamette
"I'm so humble."
Jenkins was very satisfied with his decision. He had just passed the postgraduate entrance examination before traveling, and he was still able to study advanced mathematics. But that is limited to unsystematic exam content, he is not the protagonist of the novel, and it may take some effort to organize it into a theory and publish a paper.
But Jenkins didn't have that time, he just wanted to focus on mystic research. Moreover, in the character design of the original owner Jenkins, there can be labels of mathematics lovers, but the labels of mathematicians must not appear.
It's a matter of survival.
But since someone is interested, it is also excellent to write down some of the knowledge you know. After all, you believe in the sages of the inheritance, and this approach is also in line with the teachings. After all, when you come to this world, you must bring some changes to the world. Otherwise, what's the point of coming here
But safety first, let that Miss Mary decide whether to publish it.
"The transportation in this backward era is extremely inconvenient, and the other party is in a distant foreign country. It is impossible for us to have other intersections in our lifetime."
The tail of chocolate swayed casually and hit Jenkins' teacup of milk. The cup shook slightly, and the milk overflowed.
"Probability theory can be mentioned, but simple classical models are only superficial knowledge, and the deeper content will involve integral."
After a little consideration, Jenkins defined the Cartesian coordinate system in his own words on the paper, and then began to discuss the area of the trapezoid, and then extended the area of the irregular trapezoid in the plane Cartesian coordinate system, and derived the integral with the idea of infinite equal division.
"This is not enough. The integral tool seems to be too crude to calculate probability. There are also limits, infinite series, differentials, derivatives, differential equations, matrices, multidimensional spaces, vectors..."
Talking to himself, Jenkins wrote what he could think of on a piece of paper.
Chocolate stretched his head to look at the strange symbols written by the master, and felt dizzy after a while. After meowing, he lay down again and fell asleep. But it's still spying on Jenkins' actions.
Jenkins is still a little sensible. Although he doesn't know how far the frontier of mathematics has been pushed in this era, he also knows that what he wrote is too advanced.
PS: I forgot to say Happy Mid-Autumn Festival yesterday. Ask for tickets.
