Smallest in class size. There were 2 class periods where I was the only one in my math class... it was weird.
The teacher asked me to prove something, then came and looked at my notes. I thought, "This seems a little backwards."
Then she tried to correct me on a little mistake. I had that the derivative of a function was equal to some other function, so I took the integral from a to x of that function (I didn't actually compute it, it was just g(s) or something, and we wanted it in integral form for the proof). She said that I needed to add a constant to it, but she didn't notice that it was from a to x instead of 0 to x. That took care of the constant thing, and I liked it better for the proof, since instead of cancelling constants and combining integrals from x - ct to 0 and 0 to x + ct, all I had to do was combine integral from x - ct to a and a to x + ct.
Vague explanation of a fairly specific thing I guess... hope someone can follow that.
