Depending on where you go on the wiki, some articles are math-heavy in content. Need to know readers' general understanding of math for math literacy.
- Elementary/primary-level math - 15.5% (456 votes)
- Algebra - 15.49% (456 votes)
- Geometry - 14.98% (441 votes)
- Trigonometry - 13.25% (390 votes)
- Precalculus - 12.71% (374 votes)
- High school/secondary-level statistics - 13.01% (383 votes)
- College/university-level math (calculus 1 & 2, linear algebra, multivariate calculus, probability, etc.) - 12.57% (370 votes)
- E.g. Pursuing Bachelor's or Associate degree, not necessarily having graduated with one
- Graduate-level math (number theory, topology, applied mathematics, etc.) - 2.41% (71 votes)
- E.g. Pursuing Master's degree, not necessarily having graduated with one
- Doctorate-level math - 0.27% (8 votes)
- E.g. Pursuing Doctoral degree, not necessarily having graduated with one
- Notes
- For future surveys, better wording should be used for undergraduate math; shouldn't use "college/university-level math" since that can also be confused with post-Bachelor's math or 300/400/500/600 level math
- "Taken" doesn't mean survey participants passed the class
Do you guys even use the interactive ability/augment Maximization stuff?[]
