On the left, 7-year-old Carl Friedrich Gauss deriving the formula for the sum of consecutive integers using elegant mathematical notation. On the right, a puppy in a hard hat doing basic division.

Sometimes engineering is just knowing which formula to plug into your calculator while looking cute in safety equipment.
