You Learn A New Thing Every Day

There are a few things in life that have been familiar to me for years, but I have never actually understood what they mean, or are, despite always wondering.

Once example is "Tote", which I have seen or heard mentioned in relation to horse or greyhound betting for many years. Yesterday I finally found out what it means! I also found out what parimutuel betting is.

The other thing I learned yesterday was what a cardioid is. I am quite interested in Mathematics, so was quite intrigued by this shape.


The red line is a cardioid.
