Not a whole lot of math is involved in what I'm in school for. At least not yet, that I've seen.
That is entirely plausible. Yet, after you wake up it probably dosn't take minutes before you use technology that would be impossible without advanced calculus and the like...
Oh I believe you. But considering it was part of the requirements of the employees who manufactured those things I do use, they did their job of utilizing mathematical things so that I wouldn't have to.
