I love algebra. The entire body of mathematics is built on it. Good luck and have fun learning a great discipline!

I'm loving it too. I am beginning to understand the old saying, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks," because I'm still struggling with it like I did when I was a kid in jr. high, but I have made up my mind I'm going to keep reading and practicing until it becomes OBVIOUS. I spend a couple of hours a day with it.

People with "language" brains struggle with math, while those with "math" brains have a more difficult time with languages and spelling. What goes around comes around.

It may be true. Women let a credit card do the math for them while shopping. The only science women nowadays know is “if I get to Macy’s at 8 am for a sale, what are the odds more women will be in front of me?”
