gollark: Histograms are just... why. Did they think "we must invent the most confusing and irritating possible way to represent data" or something?
gollark: I quite like maths. Except circle theorems and histograms.
gollark: They get around the fact that common calculators can do a not insignificant amount of the maths-exam stuff automatically by having a non-calculator paper for further maths, requiring working, and having more complex multi-step questions.
gollark: Maths, physics, chemistry, biology (very occasionally, it's not that mathy).
