Need a laugh. Any good maths jokes?

There was an expert accountant who was well versed in game theory. He heard that his intelligent niece, who was five years old, always took a 50p piece, when a choice between a 50p piece and a pound coin was offered to her.

He went to see his niece and offered her just such a choice. She took the 50p and said

"Thank you Uncle".

The accountant tried to explain to his niece

"You must understand, a pound coin is twice as valuable as a 50p piece, so you should always choose the pound coin."

The niece replied

"Uncle, but then people will not offer me any money."

Three logicians walk into a bar. The bartender asks, "Do y'all want a drink?" The first logician says, "I am not sure." The second one also says, "I am not sure." The third one says, "Yes."

I can do that too, I just divide by some number in between 0 and 1...

Does that make me an amoeba? ><

Relying on mathematical proofs, scientists managed to unite previously disconnected areas, thermodynamics and communication technology, into a new discipline: information theory. "Information," defined scientifically, is proportional to surprise: the more surprising the message, the more information it contains. If, having lifted a receiver, a man hears "Hello," this will not surprise him very much; there will be considerably more information if instead of "Hello" he gets an electric shock.

He thinks that he is really smooth, but he is only C¹.
