Heat Equation Puns

I said that calculating to 2 decimal places was enough for almost all equations, and 3.14 was "accepted" as Pi. He INSISTED on taking it to 5 decimal places, stating that 3.14159 was far more accurate on a large scale, and reducing to 3.14 would cause errors.

While I agreed with him on some issues, I persisted that I was correct. Most calculations in school don't require 5 decimal places, and he was just creating unnecessary work. His retort was that school was about learning, and we needed to learn how to do things the right way and not the easy way.

Naturally, this got pretty heated. We raised our voices, got angry, used some harsh words trying to prove our points, and both got detention for arguing and disrupting the teacher's lesson.

And that's the story about how I go suspended for math debating in class.
