Shiraz Robinson is a grad student in data science at the University of Virginia, who came to our attention shortly after the Christmas holiday for his Merry Christmans equations. Unfortunately, that was too late to feature his tradition of blending math formulas and holiday celebrations together, at least for that holiday, but he's back in time for Valentine's Day with another holiday-appropriate math formula!
Here's the equation, suitable for sharing with that special someone who appreciates math as much as you do! And before you ask, yes, it's safe for work....
x² + [y - (x²)¹/³]² = 1
While the mathematically inclined will immediately interpret this equation of love, others may need to plot it on a graph to truly appreciate its romantic message. We recommend checking out this GeoGebra version because you can play with the parameters d'amour.
