DubWolf 17,263 February 25, 2015 Share February 25, 2015 All the math, science and engineering majors are most likely to use so many of them, that it becomes fun to write them out . Which are your favorites? I like lower-case mu, ksi, eta, et cetera . 3 Sig by Wolf, Handwriting by SparklingSwirls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparklingSquirrels 21,342 February 25, 2015 Share February 25, 2015 My favorites are lower-case delta δ, psi Ψψ, and upper-case omega Ω. 4 ֍֎֍֎ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoisonClaw 8,164 February 25, 2015 Share February 25, 2015 I like Pi π and this other though I dont remember what it is =) Σ That's Sigma, which anyone who's played Mega Man X could tell you. My personal favorite has always been the uppercase Omega symbol. 2 MLPForums "Self-Proclaimed" Kamen Rider NutNow, count up your sins!I do Traditional commissions, by the way! See them HERE!

Draxon 214 February 25, 2015 Share February 25, 2015 ϕ (phi), which represents the Golden Ratio, 1.618. Try multiplying 1.618 by itself, and you'll get 2.618, or 1.618 + 1. Then, try dividing 1 by 1.618, and you'll get 0.618, or 1.618 - 1. I love it! It's found in Fibonacci Sequences and a myriad of natural and geometric phenomena. 1 Thrackerzod is best pony.

DATA EXPUNGED 324 February 25, 2015 Share February 25, 2015 I really enjoy upper-case Delta Δ, upper-case Sigma Σ, and upper-case Phi Φ. I also like Omicron for its name 1 Does the Onion grace my presence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCS 7,537 March 21, 2015 Share March 21, 2015 My favorite Greek symbols are the following: α - lowercase alpha, used in statistics for significance tests if I recall correctly, also used to denote angles and the lower limit for a definite integral over a polar region β - lowercase beta, used in statistics for significance tests, also used to denote angles and the upper limit for a definite integral over a polar region. may also be used to denote the beta function, but that might actually be uppercase beta, I don't remember Σ - uppercase sigma, often used to denote the sum of an infinite series Γ - uppercase gamma, used to represent the gamma function in mathematics, an extension of the notion of factorial and defined by an improper integral Δ - uppercase delta, used to denote change and is often found in definitions involving differentials and limits δ - lowercase delta, sometimes used to denote partial derivatives ε - lowercase epsilon, used in the formal definition of limits ζ - lowercase zeta, used to denote the Riemann-Zeta function, among other related functions θ - lowercase theta, often used to denote angles Λ - uppercase lambda, used in some advanced mathematics that I don't understand at all λ - lowercase lambda, found in some modern physics equations μ - lowercase mu, used often in statistics to denote means ξ - lowercase xi, looks cool Π - uppercase pi, used to denote infinite products π - lowercase pi, used to denote the beautiful transcendental number pi = 3.14159... ρ - lowercase rho, used in statistics and used to denote linear momentum σ - lowercase sigma, used in statistics to represent standard deviation Φ - uppercase phi, looks awesome as fuck φ - lowercase phi, I know this is used in math, pretty sure I saw it in my quantum mechanics book, but I don't remember what it means χ - lowercase chi, used to denote the chi-test for significance in statistics if I recall correctly Ψ - uppercase psi, hella swag ψ - lowercase psi, hella swag Ω - uppercase omega, pretty sure this is used to denote resistance or something ω - lowercase omega, used to denote angular velocity I'm sure there are many more applications in mathematics, physics, and elsewhere of the above letters, I just listed what I was familiar with from memory. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderQuartz 8 March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 Favorite? Well, I'm not sure it makes sense to talk about favorites. I just use them according to the conventions depending on what I'm doing. The post above sums it up quite well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcyHaze 594 April 6, 2015 Share April 6, 2015 I think my favourite is the uppercase Omega - though that's probably because of Marilyn Manson's usage of it in his Mechanical Animals era.

Dark Horse 12,961 April 11, 2015 Share April 11, 2015 (edited) I like the letter Ξ or Xi as it's called, because i've noticed it's similarities to the Japanese numerical for 3 (三).

Thorn O Discord 118 April 13, 2015 Share April 13, 2015 The Sigma looks cool, but there is something satifying with putting a line through a crile, like when you make a lowercase Theta. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gernia 691 April 14, 2015 Share April 14, 2015 I like lower case Beta (β), both versions of Psi (Ψ), both versions of Phi (Φ), and both versions of Sigma (Σ,σ). I just think they look cool. I also think lower case Zeta (ζ), Delta (δ), and Xi (ξ) look weird. Signature by Kyoshi Hymenoptera is the most superior order of insects. | I'm the best Street Fighter player ever... in my hometown.
