First function is a sine wave, commonly written sin().

Second function is a cubic ("square"?) polynomial.

Joke:

Everyone else's life: Sin.

My life: Square.

Edit: as pointed out, it's not really square

I got "everyone else's life has ups and downs, mine is just up, up, UP!" from the graphs 🤷‍♂️

Same, i thought it was about having a manic episode or something

It's not square, though, but cubed. x^2 looks very different. And 2 isn't an odd number (see title.)

But if the lower diagram was x^2 (and the axis were labelled correctly) I'd say that's a proper joke 😃

Haha yeah it was the only way I could make sense of it...

I like your joke better 😆 However... If the x-axis was time, you'd have to explain the negative part to me. Or stop at least at -9 months...
