    These are the ones most people use and are not the dumb math major functions.

      They deserve to be on the same tier. Parabolas are awesome, the fact that they reflect to a single point (why we use parabolic antennas), the fact that they are one of the conic curves and so much more. X^2 is definitely A tier material. But so is log(x), the fact that they convert products into adding is by itself worthy of A tier.

      ​@@staticnullhazard6966 It will be my pleasure to interact with you on this, altought not directly correct you. Sorry for the english It Is my second language and I am still working on my speeling.
      Yes indead your statement Is correct, the problem Is that Newtonian mechanics Is quite a lot more limited than Its 2 equivalents. Here are the list of advantages of the other 2:
      Thermodinamics, and the very little Introduction to statistical mechanics I do know, are very dependent on analysing the energy function of Isolated systems and thuss are much more cosely linked to hamiltonians ( there Is even a theorem about how x^2 terms In the energy function contributed all equaly to the average energy In a linear maner for classical estatistical mechanics ).
      Classical ( and also quantum ) field theory Is build upon Hamiltonian and Lagrangian mechanics, and so If you want to understand complex Interactions between a atoms and light you will be using hamiltonian and lagrangian mechanics, maybe there Is a way to do field theory from newton but from my superficial contact with the area It Is always introduced with hamiltonians and lagrangians.
      Quantum theory foundations are entirely hamiltonian and them when you get to quantum fields you get a lagrangian option, never a newtonian analog.
      I am still a undergraduate so I tried my best to only speak when I knew enought about the subject, but I can also think of a few more concepts of analytical mechanics that I belive to have a better treatment using lagrangian and hamiltonian mechanics like finding conserved quantities or how the hamiltonian perturbation theory Is a more formal and cokie cut way to aproximate solutions for systems where you have a big solvable part and a smaller un-solvable perturbation. But over thosse I do not know exactly how my observations would be correct because I am still going to take analytical mechanics next semester.

      @@MysteriousObjectsOfficial yes, which means they also make multiplication and division into addition and subtraction, which is fundamentally easier. It can turn all kinds of hard problems with products into subs and coefficients, which means you can apply linear algebra to the problem, then you just undo the logs at the end and you've solved it without crazy multiplication.

      In fact the provided f(x) doesn't have horizontal nor oblique asymptotes either since lim x->±inf of f'(x) doesn't equal 0 nor any other constant value. As far as I can tell, this is enough to show, that one particular rational function has no asymptotes. Thus you are incorrect.

    Reciprocal can be cool for physics theory. Asymptotes can potentially be used for exploring black hole aspects, which is neat given that vertical asymptotes can correlate with "holes" that may represent where gravitational influence might be strong enough to create an event horizon on a 2-dimensional plane.

    Quadratic functions:D The nightmare of students in Grade 7 to 9 but it’s normal in Grade 10 to 12(I’m Grade 8).

    Power functions:A They haven’t troubled me a lot.
    Exponential functions & logarithmic functions:C However,e^x & ln x get S.
    Trigonometric functions:A Beautiful functions.
    Inverse trigonometric functions:B They don’t appear very often.
    Hyperbolic functions:D I haven’t learnt them but they seem so hard.
    Piecewise functions(including absolute value):F It isn’t differentiable somewhere.

    Then next year I had him for Calc 2 so integrals.
    He’d ask the class ok what is the integral of e^x
    We’d respond e^x and he’d say no what is the integral of that.

    This is a controversial take but logarithms are both a blessing and a curse. They are a blessing because they can make certain calculations easier and sometimes when you are graphing, the relation between two variables can be more easily seen if you use a logarithmic plot. They are also a curse because certain properties make them hard to deal with. For example the complex logarithm is multi valued which is always a nuisance (it’s also multi valued in the context of Lie Groups), another annoying property is that logarithms tend to infinity but grow slower than all power functions, which is a nuisance in perturbation problems.
