Why the hell would you use a pen for math?

>taking notes in latex
dumbass

>he doesn't know

GENTLEMEN.

Easy boys. This blog of mine is for Topbrains. I'll need you to log off

undergrad brainlet detected

How did you manage to get the pen to leak?
I've used fountain pens for a while now amd they're great. The fault here isn't with fountain pens, it's with you.

>Doing math
found the problem

I don’t understand how people can work with pens. It’s honestly disgusting. Why spend money on a pen and whiteout when you could just use a comfy mechanical pencil. I only use pens when I need to make my notes permanent.

Erasable gel pens are nice for color coding

>fell for the meme
Lrn2meme fgt pls

>whiteout
making mistakes is the sure sign you're a pleb let's be real here

>He is so brainlet that he doesn't know how to use a fountain pen

Pencils are the best

You can also stab a nigger too with it

Learn to use your pen properly fag

You are using the wrong pen. This is the pen you need.

I bought a low-end Windows tablet for like $200 after my first year of college and it's been great. Grad student now and I still use it for every class. Having all my notes from every class for the past 4 years concentrated into a single, easily accessible platform has saved my ass more than a few times.
That being said, taking notes on paper is much easier and feels better than using a stylus.

>not getting a friction pen

What are some good cheap pens? I recently got a 0.5 muji pen and now I can't use any of my others to take notes.

>uniball
hnnnggggg
I got one of those back in 4th grade and have been using them since

''That''

If you have a good way of quickly adding an example graph or drawing, and fucking god knows how many obscure greek letters as fast as writing, please share.
I hate my fucking handwriting anyway.

Get a lamy vista (clear), lamy safari (opaque plastic) or a lamy alstar (aluminium)
I've had my lamy vista since I started secondary school in the UK (about 9 years now) and I still use it at uni. I can't recommend it enough, also, get a converter to go with it, this enables you to use bottled ink, and a good notebook. A Lamy pen is cheap, durable and reliable.
>tldr Lamy master race
>Also, if your using bottled ink make sure it's fountain pen ink you're putting in there, not calligraphy ink

Erasable pens are pretty kino desu.

> example graph
graph function in Qtiplot, screenshot
> example drawing
get ink scape, spend 15 minutes learning how to use it, draw your shit.

Mechanical pencil > Pen

Been using pic related for 5 or 6 years now. It's light, which is nice when you're 6 hours deep in to studying/writing notes, and it's reliable as I've used the same pencil for all of those years. I can't see why I would ever switch.

Erasing your 'mistakes' is academically dishonest.

You should always write in pen even in scratch work. Then nicely write your solution set to hand in as if it were an essay or nice letter. And only then if you refuse to use LateX

I can write with pen because i dont make mistakes

>with pen
Made a mistake right there....
