wronskian

A technique in mathematics used to prove that the solutions of a differential equation are linearly independent. Also a term used by math geeks to inform one another when trying to solve a problem, that compounding one botched attempt after another won't lead to success.

Dude, two wronskians don't make a right.

reduction of order

Reduction of order is a technique in mathematics for solving second-order ordinary differential equations. It is also a technique used in restaurants by math geeks who change their order to an amount less than originally requested.

I went to McDonald's and ordered two Big Macs, but I changed my mind and ordered only one. They didn't like my reduction of order.

Boss, I want arrays.

fuzzer

Fuzzing is a software testing technique used to discover coding errors and security loopholes in software, operating systems or networks by inputting massive amounts of random data, called fuzz, to the system in an attempt to make it crash. A fuzzer is written to do the fuzzing.

Charlie: The other thing you could imagine is attacking the kernel from the battery. So you could write a fuzzer in CoolRISC assembly, and have the battery literally fuzzing the OS.

In mathematics, a term used to describe the derivative of a derivative. Also a term used in restaurants by math geeks to indicate that a duplicate meal is desired.

Garçon, I'll have a second order of those ribs.
