    I have two questions.
    1. If the exponent is instead taken as the multiplicative inverse (i.e., reciprocal) of the quantity in the brackets, then didn’t she actually derive 1/ln(mathematics) ?
    2. How do we know what that “-1” exponent means?

    I like reading this strip!

    derived from greek? then you get 0. there is no greek in your formula.
