  1. sqrt(15)? on Light-based Quantum Circuit Does Basic Maths · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    sqrt(15) = sqrt(5) * sqrt(3)

    Hmmm.. I bet they also calculated square roots of 9 and 25, but did not want to brag about it:

    sqrt(25) = sqrt(5) * sqrt(5)
    sqrt(9) = sqrt(3) * sqrt(3)

    "Non-native English speakers"???

    Yeah, like those who live in England, who are sometimes called the English?

    In the US it is "Math", in the UK it "Maths". And non-native English speakers are taught British English, not American English, thus the affinity toward the way things are said in England.

    Actually, "All Slashdotter's features" is the most correct, but "All of Slashdotter's features" is not something I would ever say is a big grammar error.
