mini-lathe - getting it right...maybe

When Epsilon and Upsilon = 25 it can be said to be the sum of something slender. ;D How Greek is that ???

Epsilon: 5th letter of the Greek alphabet. Our 'E'. Value = 5.
Upsilon: 20th letter of the Greek alphabet. Our 'Y'. Value = 400.

I have no idea how the values are arrived at. Nor do I know what you mean by the 'sum of something slender'...tell me more.

I was wrong about my favorite...back in school...and still sometimes at work...I use...

Tau: time constant
Lambda : wavelength
Sigma : summation
Beta: gain
Omega: resistance
Delta: difference
Theta: angle
Pi : duh

I wish you all a

Mu-Epsilon-Rho-Rho-Upsilon
Gamma-Theta-Rho-Iota-Sigma-Tau-Mu-Alpha-Sigma

and a

Theta-Alpha-Pi-Pi-Upsilon
Nu-Epsilon-w
Upsilon-Epsilon-Alpha-Rho

which is a complete trashing of the Greek alphabet and I apologize for that.
Be glad I'm not trying to write in English.

Frohe Weihnachten Zee.
Καλά Χριστούγεννα.

Bob's convoluted mind arrived at the following, at least dubious and probably erroneous output:

Epsilon is the symbol for "The sum of."

5+20 = 25

Upsilon means, (according to my Oxford Dictionary), slender.

I'd never even heard of it and thought you had made a spelling mistake for Epsilon :.

As I said, total Greek or maybe even Double Dutch.

Best Regards

You skipped 0 and ∞

Put away your jelly jar while on vacation ? - unthinkable...

And a Merry Christmas to you all too !

Kind regards, Arnold

No, no... Please don't explain further.
I'm going back to the Weebles and Playskool forum where I can actually interact with the members.
