Hearing the way the professor had responded to some of the other students, and considering Melanie had no idea why they would only use "finite" anyway, she sat quietly and wrote down what appeared on the blackboard. She was getting better using her ink and quill, but there were still a fair few stray dots and smears across her parchment. Delicately, she dipped the tip of her quill into the ink in order to be able to write the last couple points. She was terrified of knocking it over, especially in this professor's class.
