Random Poll: How do you write the number 7? (2 Viewers)

I havent used x in an algebraic sense in a while, but I probs do it the same way.

So say if you wrote the word 'six'*, you'd use the curvy x as well?

* - was originally going to specify another word quite similar... damn hormones of mine.

 

[IamBread]

This is how I do them all.

From top to bottom; 7, x, z, 2, 5, l, t, i, 1

 

[mirakon]

Nup, the curvy x is only for algebra.

 

[Coookies]

Without the dash (lazy). But sometimes I add it when I'm bored, or if it looks too close to something else

 

[Kimyia]

For "x" I used to kinda do it like a baackwards c next to a normal c, so I had a curvy x

Yeah, thats the way I do it now.

 

[Aysce]

The way I write "x" is always cursive. Even in english, business and etc. Just a habit I guess

Oh we're posting pics now? Oh okay...

My math contexts are the same as those but my L's never turn out like that

 

[Shadowdude]

It's an effort to draw them like that. Especially when I'm doing like... area of a rectangle? Normal l's look like a 1 so I have to put the curve in. See "l" and "1" on the top line.

Pics seemed easier then trying to explain it through text .
I also write the same way in maths as I do for everything else.

That reason is why I now do curly i, l and t.

I think an interesting thing would be to ask how others write the more... difficult maths symbols.

Like how do we draw the 'R' to say 'real numbers'? Or the partial derivative symbol? Or certain Greek letters? Integral signs?

I print in regular handwriting but for maths contexts I use cursive letters, and put a line through my z's and occasionally 7's.

My gammas turn out to look like deformed y's :/

How about we form a list here of things we could write - someone make a thread, and let's see how we all compare.

Because we have nothing better to do on our Saturday nights =P

lol ok
It would actually be interesting to see

Hehe that could be fun

 

[Shadowdude]

So how about:

- R, C, N and Q: symbols for those sets of numbers
- Partial derivative symbol
- Integral sign
- Lowercase: alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, theta, lambda, mu, pi, rho, sigma, phi, omega
- Uppercase: gamma, pi, sigma, omega
- the squiggly set things: { and }
- the arrows that look like this
- infinity
- proportionality
- numbers 0 to 9 (why not?)
