Topic	Hey math nerds, where should I go next?
Anteaterking 05/02/24 10:09:49 PM #27:	lderivedx posted... Graph theory is tough. I could never really pick up the intuition for the proofs. One of my committee members was a graph theorist and he decided to tell me there's a better way to do a proof during my defense. My favorite part about combinatorics/graph theory is that there are a lot of proofs that boil down to random magic tricks. Obviously that can lead to its own frustration but in some ways it was more of a style than a specific discipline compared to e.g. my friends who did commutative algebra.
