Quickmath

What is Quickmath?

1.

Mathematics done with a focus on speed of calculation rather than accuracy. This change in priority often results in wild approximations and unvalidated assumptions, leading to low quality answers. Often used in rough-work to check previously calculated answers, or in physics-related pub arguments.

See also, napkinmath.
