The Dot and the Line: A Romance in Lower Mathematics

This cartoon seems best suited for shy teenagers trying to win a girl. But why would you want a girl like dot anyway? She's just goes where the money is.

It is indeed a word -- A "rhomboid" is parallelogram in which adjacent sides are of different lengths. A "rhombus" is one where the sides are all the same length.

Now, about this film. First time I saw it was in elementary school in class. I didn't connect the name Chuck Jones with the Roadrunner or any of the other animation he had done, but I always liked this film. (I considered myself a 'line' then. And when the moral came up, I LOL -- I love puns. Math and vocab -- a great combo.

ohhh....I remember watching this back when I was a kid... :D

so is the story of vaggo and ponos?

Go gledav klipov deka mi go preporaca profesorkata po matematika ne za drugo. Dzabe istroseni 10 minuti :)

However...is it better than another one of his classic cartoons, Duck Amuck, or For Scent-Imental Reasons (Oscar in 1949)?

FYI: "The Dot And The Line" is another one of Chuck Jones' masterpieces. Released as a theatrical animated short for MGM in 1965,it won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature. For those who don't understand mathematics,this cartoon is a dazzling display of sheer genius courtesy of Chuck Jones.

But it was written by Norton Juster first.

egadz!!!! i love this!!!!

You are indeed! Bravo!
