math puns
Jokes using numbers
Math puns are jokes that play on mathematical terms, symbols, or concepts.
They rely on double meanings—*pi* and *pie*, *sine* and *sign*, the multiple senses of *root* or *tangent*.
Why was six afraid of seven? Because seven eight nine.
The genre is associated with dad jokes and math teachers, appreciated more for groans than laughs.
