I handed some structural engineering calculation to the architect yesterday. He looked confused. I pointed to the teenage boy with my paperwork in his hand and explained that rounding off can result in things like the Pesgores you see here.

His wife gave the rounding error cookies and milk.

Then the hard ones are easy for you.

Hard can't be more easy than easy.

I always end up making one small mistake so I'll get 99% on my work in calculus. I'll change a plus to a minus and screw everything up and I never check my work.
