Math Problems
A somewhat advanced society has figured how to package basic knowledge
in pill form. A student, needing some learning, goes to the pharmacy
and asks what kind of knowledge pills are available. The pharmacist
says, "Here's a pill for English literature." The student takes the
pill and swallows it and has new knowledge about English literature!
"What else do you have?" asks the student.
"Well, I have pills for art history, biology, and world history,"
replies the pharmacist.
The student asks for these, and swallows them and has new knowledge
about those subjects. Then the student asks, "Do you have a pill for
math?"
The pharmacist says, "Wait just a moment," goes back into the
storeroom, brings back a whopper of a pill, and plunks it on the
counter.
"I have to take that huge pill for math?" inquires the student.
The pharmacist replied, "Well, you know math always was a little hard
to swallow."
