Anyone recently having done GCSE maths coursework may remember "Anyone for T?"; here is the equation expanded to a T shape in any n-manifold, which has dimensions (width, length, depth and so on) d_1 \times d_2 \times \cdots \times d_{n-1} (dimension dn does not affect the T-value "V"):

V = L \prod_{k=1}^{n-1} d_k \left( L \prod_{k=1}^{n-1} d_k + 2T + W-1 \right)+\frac {\left( W - 1 \right)^2}{4}
When:
T, n, W, L, d \in \mathbb{N}
W \le d_1
Or roughly that, my handwriting is cacographic.

  • T is the T-number (its position on the manifold).
  • n is the dimension of the manifold in which the T exists.
  • V is the end value of the T shape, the T-value.
  • W is the width of the top bar of the T shape, it must be odd for the T shape to exist.
  • L is the length of the T shape (the number of squares to which it extends below the top bar).
  • d is the respective dimension of the n-manifold.

I did actually go this far in my coursework (got 24/24), except I did not know the pi producty notationy (\prod) thing. Dimensions higher than three have always interested me.

[edit] Reasons for Joining

Before joining, I realised that there are many minor mistakes (grammatical, spelling etc.) in several articles, so I intend to use this account to rectify those errors. Also, my school's address is blocked so this will help with my editing. Furthermore, as my mathematical knowledge develops - as I'm doing A level maths, and intend to further it at university - I may be able to contribute to the mathematics portal. So until later, most of my edits will be minor, and I'll try not to be hypercorrect.
Oh yeah, I'll try not to correct American English spellings (unless it's in an article that should have British spellings - like a British region etc.), however tempting it may be...
I will immediately remove any vandalism, which I notice (of course), whenever I browse.

Recently, I have become very interested in reverting vandalism. This interest has resulted in this page's being vandalised several times.

More recently, I have been away from Wikipedia. The computer I usually use no longer has a permanent internet connection and I have less free time at school. I will try to contribute but I have few chances to help.
