That statement above makes as much sense to me as construction work being a written language.

If you knock down the foundation of something (arithmetic being the forerunner of today's mathematics), you have nothing.

The parenthetical is incorrect. LOGIC is the basis. Arithmetic is
pretty damned unimportant.

Depends on what you do within mathematics.

(And yes, I've studied mathematics at the uni.)

Well, you NEED arithmetic to deal with applied
issues - no question. So, fairly concrete things
like calculus are heavily dependent. But, 'tis no
longer seen as a 'core' of mathematics, and hasn't
been for over 50 years.

??? You apologise? What for? Are you ok?

This thread has gone off topic, yes.

I don't think you have wasted anyone's time.

Not really; I just realised that the team programme wasn't for me at all. I was too anxious throughout the entire taster session, while the other team members don't seem to be affected as much, which annoys me. I couldn't concentrate on the tasks while I was too busy familiarising myself with the new environment.

Sorry to have disappointed those who were rooting for me, and I'm sorry for making this ridiculous topic.

Bring on the judging and put-downs.

I'm sorry it didn't work out for you but I think that sometimes it takes more courage to walk away from something early on when you know its not right than it does to keep going just to save face.

Oh, I meant I was empathizing.
Tend to do that a lot. Sometimes
things just aren't right. Not worth
making yourself miserable, forcing
yourself into something you will never
like.
