    But what happens when you cross two rows of ducks?

    Corollary?
    If you have three ducks, you are in a plane

    I would like to include this comic in an early algebra book for parents. How do I contact your permissions department? ;-)

    Yesterday, we played with the idea with my daughter. This is such a cool way to introduce it. “And three ducks can never escape a plane, wherever they fly.” I wonder if it should be “n-hyporow” – which isn’t even a word, though.

    can you make some joke with ducks( or whatever in a row) for a well ordered sets , and to do sometihing with that ,that would allude to the axiom of choice :))

    Corollary:
    If you have any three snakes, they’re in a plane.

    i thought in general n ducks would be in a (n-1)-hyperrow

    Can this be proved by n-duck-tion?

    @dolphinling Not if you have two on the floor and one on an inclined surface
