Google's calculator is cool!

So you may have used Google before but did you know that it also had a calculator built-in? Just do a search for " calculator " and enjoy. Alternatively, type in a sum such as " 10+4*6 " then get your result. But did you know you can also do graphs? Let's do a really simple one to show what " sqrt(x) " is. We can also do 3d graphs such as " sqrt(x*y) from 0 to 10 " you can also add from and to specifications. Try this quite complicated equation " x+y*y+x*y+y*5-x*15**(x+y)+x*y+x**y from -1.85065e+16 to 1.85065e+16 " it is pretty weird and I kept it quite zoomed out so you can see the massive artifacts. Try this one from -10 to 10 " x+y*y+x*y+y*5-x*15**(x+y)+x*y+x**y from -10 to 10 ". You could also find a graph of Pythagoras theorem " sqrt(x**2+y**2) ". Hope you have fun.

What language do we think in?

Here is a question. What language do we think in? Well maybe you speak English and express your thoughts as English e.g I really need to write a blog post. But inside your brain is it really like that? According to my fictional book twins often develop a private language to communicate although this is relevant because most lies are based on truth. I am thinking about this blog post as words and just then I decided to do a bit of thinking about your reaction to this post and my conclusion is that I at least think in English words. Did you grow up speaking another language? If so what is your opinion? Leave a comment and share with others so we can solve this mystery!
