Dear sir,
Notwithstanding the fact that we rate your hard hitting
decision to reduce the number of vehicles polluting
Delhi's atmosphere as marvellous , our Union of Number System strongly disapproves with the
rule behind rationing.
Bearing a legacy of famed mathematicians like Bhaskara , Aryabhatta
, and Ramanujam isn't it undignified to employ simple elementary mathematics of
odd and even to frame a rule which will affect the psyche of masses in general.
Your rule, my dear, has ignored the
basic principle of mathematics : the difficult, the better.
The simplicity of identifying odd and even has sucked the
breath out of your fellow protest groups, who were so longing to hug the
deserted Jantar Mantar had you offered a more difficult proposition to
Delhiwales . Infact, your transition from a coughing krantikari to a pondering adhikari
has caught every ready-to-agitate soul unarmed.
But real world apart, the world of mathematics is under a severe trauma since you colluded with the chunnu-munnus of number system and ruined the ego of other big shots like Prime and Composite
number or Rational-Irrartional number.
Sir, your rule has revived the caste system in our community
where odd-even still enjoy privilege over other real numbers. For years we have
ignored the discriminatory treatment meted to rational-irrational numbers over
odd-even by the student community at large. For a meagre 5 marks they prefer
writing the complete multiplication table of even numbers between 1 to 10 than
proving how square root2 is
irrartional. Just because 2,4,6,8,10 are even and rhyme together should we deny poor square root2 the right to prove
its rationality? In such a partial oriented society, the selection of only
odd-even by an ex-IITian thereby ignoring the whole gamut of real numbers might leave Pythagorus turn in his grave.
In a bid to assert your mind's supremacy, pay homage to past
mathematicians and give fodder to protest to political parties we suggest you an
alternative. Make a raita of all real
and imaginary numbers, spit a bit of calculus into it and offer a ready to
rebel vehicle rationing policy as raita to litter.
Enforce some out of box complex rules, go back to vedas or
vedic mathematics and churn out theorems that would put followers of Euler, Lafrange
or Leibniz to shame. Unleash the 'iterative dog' of Runge-Kutta method over the
numb mortal brains of Delhites . Introduce the imaginary and ever dreaded iota (i) as the complex series in vehicle numbers, gift the Delhi dudes some Double
Differential equations and toss a pinch of quadratic to the motorists Madams,
the solution to which would be their licence to drive. Or include rational
irrational numbers as part of the
rationing policy by crowning every vehicle number with a square root function and
let the hapless mind decipher its rationality. Make the vehicle numbers so miserable to identify,sir, that
people shudder twice before driving again.
Let us together prove everyone that when we copy a rule then we improvise
upon it even better. Thus let us welcome a beautiful world where early morning
every person worth his mathematics soul would hold a glass of milk in one
hand and an advanced mathematics book in the other.
With few regards
Yours Mathematically,
Union of Number System
