A long pondered but only lately realized blog about economics, politics, evaluation, econometrics, academia, college football and whatever else comes to mind.
The "math" shown under the check is wrong. The exponent for e is not 2 x pi, it is i x pi, i being the imaginary operator. The value of e raised to the i x pi exponent is equal to -1. So, the total addition is 0.002 + (-1) + 1 = 0.002 dollars, a paltry sum indeed!
