what does this sign means ?

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

reversed A

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

|dw:1435770248432:dw|

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

for all

geerky42 (geerky42):

\thread

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

like if you say \(\forall n\in {\bf R}\)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

what is thread ?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

that means for all real numbers n

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

for all, that is the meaning

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

questions?

geerky42 (geerky42):

Just my way to saying that @SolomonZelman had it all. No need to get replies from other users

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

ok tnx . it means (for all)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

tnx:) I saw that sign once, never used it tho' because no one qould get it, although it is a good tool to save space.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

would*

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Is that from a tutorial of a person who is obsessed with notations?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I don't really se it used alot... in any case, you now know it:)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

yep i m proud i know it

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I clicked on spraguer that I saw just now, and glitched:D

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\forall x\in\mathbb{R^+}~x\gt \sin x\]

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

is their any link that gives informtion on all mathmatical signs and its meaning

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look up quantifiers

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\(0>\sin 0\) ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

0 is not a positive real number

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

oh forget that \(\huge \mathbb{R^{\color{red}{+}}}\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you may think of \(\forall \) as a for/foreach loop in a programming language

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\forall x\in \color{red}{X} ~ ~ \color{blue}{\text{statement}}\] the \(\color{blue}{\text{statement}}\) is applicable to "all" the elements of set \(\color{red}{X}\)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

i have also just seen reversed E |dw:1435771106226:dw|

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

ok i see that sign \(\forall\) is from set theory

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

i have seen as "there exist" written as it meaning

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\exists\) refers to existence of at least one that satisfies the statement that follows

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\exists x\in \mathbb{R}~:~x^2=2 \] means there exists at least one real number \(x\) "such that" the square of it equals 2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

yes, lol, √2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

or -√2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

... ±√2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

(i am using alt shortcuts)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

can you guess what below statement means \[\large \not \exists x\in \mathbb{Q}~:~x^2=2 \]

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

what is \(\large \mathbb{Q}\) ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

"set" of rational numbers

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

there exists no rational numbers that satisfy \(x^2=2\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes, thats same as saying \(\sqrt{2}\) is irrational

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\(\not \exists \mathbb{GM}:\text{GM}:\text{stockfish6.0} ::1:0\) guess the statement

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

there doesn't exist a grandmaster who beat the stockfish 1-0

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

good one!

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

yep correct

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

it is important to mention stockfish version 6.0
