    Wait until you hear fractions can be exponents and what that means in realtion to power rules and roots.

    Then wait until you hear irrational numbers can be exponents and what that means for irrational powers of irrational numbers.

    And then wait until you about complex numbers being able to be exponents and loose your mind about e^(iπ) being -1

      That’s the part where I nope right out. Math isn’t something I ever enjoyed, and getting into fractional exponents sounds like a nightmare to me. I also was unaware 0 is a valid exponent.

        Thankfully math doesn’t technically get harder than understanding counting and key mathematical operators (+ - x /), there’s just more steps.
