Maths is a very mathematical subject. It involves the calculation of integers, decimals, fractions, variables, constants, and other random numbers. Fortunately, this is all really logical and therefore as easy as pi! (Pi = 3. 141 592 653 589 793 238 462 643 383 279 502 884 197 169 399 375 105 820 974 944 592 307 816 406 286 208 998 628 034 825 342 117 067 9 (100 D.P.)). An important equation is this: When the angle of the dangle is the sag of the bag then the throb of the nob is a constant. It's often very useful in maths lessons, but you don't want to know how!

Here is an account of a typical A-level maths lesson:
Miss Saggar: | Ok, who did the 200,000 homework questions that take an hour each, so that I can take them in and lose them, like the pathetic-in-an-attempt-to-be-funny individual that I am. |
Stephen: | Well, as of yet I haven't done any as such. |
David: | Oh I did it, but I can't seem to find it at the moment. |
Andrew: | I got pissed off and destroyed my house. |
Zack: | I was going to do it, but got caught in a cat flap. |
Robert: | Well, the first half was too easy, so I didn't bother, and the second half were too hard, so I didn't bother. Instead I did a totally irrelevant essay on race cars. |
Simon: | I did the next, considerably shorter exercise instead. |
Pali: | I couldn't be arsed. (Throws a large rock at David) |
Wayne: | I deserve a right good slapping. |
John: | I wrote a program to do it, but it's a bit dodgy. |
Emmie: | I did it all, as well as all the other exercises in all other text books, and wrote a two thousand page thesis on the work. |
The rest: | Sorry Miss, we forgot. |
Miss Saggar: | Right OK, I'll just have to lock you all in the cupboard. |
