If this moron actually learned something in high school, he wouldn’t be complaining right now. This is not that hard to understand. It’s high school level math, and you certainly don’t need degree from MIT to understand this. I wonder why US is behind in Math compared to other countires. It’s because morons like this guy never learn anything in high school except to solve problems using fancy TI (Texas Instruments) calculators….

Excuse me? Why is it anytime a mathematical equation is put forth, someone has to make some quip about being a “MIT student” in order to understand it? What the heck did you learn in school, anyway? We studied equations like this in high school – summations are a precursor to calculus (limits become derivatives, summations become integrals). Maybe instead of balking at the idea of math (beyond using a calculator to add 3 plus 3), you should instead learn something from it. Most of the time the “big equation” is easier to understand than you think.

Though it is less complex than Google’s algorythm…
