Fuck! Im 40 and this is the first time I understand the sigma sign!! Thank you!
Couldnt they just show this to me at 7th grade or something when i already learned pascal?
The sigma sign shows up as "sum" quite a bit but I didn't know about the for-loop thing.
I was into coding (javascript) but nope they are unwilling to find creative new ways to help teach people, gotta be a nonseical "one size fits all"
