UwU brat mathematician behavior

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
I think rather
d/dx
is the operator. You apply it to an expression to bind free occurrences ofx
in that expression. For example,dx²/dx
is best understood asd/dx (x²)
. The notation would be clear if you implement calculus in a program.If not fraction, why fraction shaped?
If you use exterior calculus notation, with d = exterior derivative, everything makes so much more sense
