Right, so it's all stems from mathematicians working with pencil and paper.
Are mathematicians ever frustrated that they don't understand what the variables mean? Or are you able to look at the above equation and infer the meaning of the variables based on experience?
I understand that there are symbols such as "delta" which basically always mean the same thing. But would you have been able to tell what "b" meant without someone telling you?
