This is my second channel for anything which is not mathsy enough for my main channel. Or too mathsy. If it's more than two standard deviations of mathsy away from my main channel: it goes on Matt_Parker_2.

Love Triangle: Brought to you by Some Terrible Python Code
but can it run bad apple?
Love the exciting, fun mathematics that you have included in this book. Also, thanks for the heads-up on the first edition known errors.
Next book should have page numbers as a complex jaunt around the unit circle!
The postie just delivered my pre-pre-order book from 6th march, and I'm both disappointed that I received a red cover (291), and impressed that it means you pre-sold over 1,200 copies before i got my order in all the way back then, so Congratulations to you for the massive success in getting this book completed! :)
Curious.. I counted n+1 things about publishing a physical book. The opposite of clickbait
I will be thinking of the famous standing desk when I'm listening to said audiobook
Book on order. Just got the audio too! Thanks Matt.
I can't find the edition no. on the books I have within arm's reach. (So on 2 fiction books published by the same company, written by the same person, where one is the other's sequel) Edit: One does have "10 9 8 7 6" in it, and the other has "10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2". Note: the spaces are also in the book.
Proud owner of the 177th signed copy of the Simplex Edition. Loving it, so far.
Your ignorance is great
Never has 'Stand-Up Maths' been so appropriate
I always wondered if you found a math mistake while reading your book would you correct it for the audio book. This video was informative.
"it's got some content in there as well"

Holy smokes! I'm very excited! I gotta get me a copy!
all fun and games until someone uploads a 1 terabyte data bomb and you suddenly know what a flaming christmas tree looks like 😂
You couldn't get them to call it a 0th edition instead of a First edition?
❤️🔺 I went for the audible book. Also got Humble Pi as I had unused credits. Double Matt! Weekend listening ✅
Holding images should always be something that 100% stands out as incorrect, like a picture of Mr Bobbly or something. Having watched your videos however, Matt, I'm not sure I can think of something that would obviously stand out!
As a citizen of the United States, I appreciate the extra work that goes into translating English texts into American. Yee haw!
I hope the shipping to Chile doesn't take too long! Can't wait
I feel like writing the Love Triangle Companion, which is basically just a big arcsin table, with instructions on how to apply it to arccos too.
So, you couldn't pull off a zeroth edition. :-(
Matt don't ever stop fucking with the formatting in ridiculous maths ways it's hilarious
Hah. I'm glad I already ordered the book, though. Call me old-fashioned, but I kinda like my page numbers ⊂ ℕ. And having gone through the painful process of creating a proper hand-crafted index for other people's books multiple times, I like to know that the author or publishers have suffered the same way. And don't get me started on having the origin for the polar coordinates not be in the center of the page! What's wrong with the other three quadrants? Also, something something radians. Anyway, can't wait to be annoyed at you and your damn book. Hope it sells well! :)
The label ‘keep your ion the price’ is great in the store. Eagerly awaiting my preorder.
"BUY MY BOOK! BUY MY BOOK! BUY MY BOOK!" -Jay Sherman
Him distributing the Humble Pi has me laughing more than I should
God forbid anyone ever has to cite this book.
11:18 "semi-arbitary"? You're welcome. 😻🥰
My pre order charge hit my credit card and my wife asked me why I bought a love triangle book. I told her it was about trigonometry and she didn’t believe me.
0:24 "In computing, there are two hard problems: Cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors." 🤣
As much as I'd love a first print, I can't justify shipping costing more than the book.. Shame..
Can't wait for my copy to arrive! just last week I went all the way from the US to London just to finally get a UK airplane cover copy of Humble Pi (and definitely not because I was on family vacation...)
5:37 That WAS very funny! Made this old programmer chuckle a little at least.
If you'd use the page numbers as a number of radians then you would have had unique page numbers
6:00 That is so stupid, I love it. I'm sure that cost a lot of publisher goodwill indeed
Not to be pedantic, is there a list of mistakes?
The index providing co-ordinates to the word is genius. I wish more textbooks did that. You have slightly tarnished that glory by using repeating page numbers.
I also always "face" books when I'm in a bookstore and find a book I've written or edited!
Put one in the trashy romance section; teach someone not to judge a book by its title.
I'm surprised you had any repeats on the page number. The sine of any integer number of radians should be unique so only rounding would make it the same.
lol, well his audience is high school math teachers and apple-polishing high school math students, so of course he used degrees.
@@ssl3546 did you use degrees in high school trig? I think that would make everything harder.
@@SpeakShibboleth We used both.
10 favourite things about the book, where 10 is in base n
Will there be a list of the mistakes anywhere if we want to make corrections?
are you a mega multimillionaire now?
I'm so excited to get my hands on a copy, Matt! Things to make and do is one of my favourite books! I have to wait a bit longer as it's release date in Japan is next month.
Next time the index needs to have an entry for each item that identifies what page the index listing is on. Some entries should not exist anywhere in the book except the index and have the single reference back to itself.
I'm sorry but does every book have the font it is printed in on the copyright page because this is VITAL information to me and I would really appreciate it if all books could do this!!
