Apparently I'm screwed; I cut it off the cob in sheets. So I guess that means I don't care about efficiency, but need things super neat and orderly. I have always liked Prolog though...
I eat in both spirals and in rows. Sometimes sticking with one method all the way through, sometimes alternating along the way. Additionally, sometimes I take great care to cleanly peck each and every kernel out of its socket. Other times I mow through it like a wild animal, bits of corn strewn around my mouth. I have always loved math, and I always want to dive in deeper, but can never quite figure out exactly what…
Analysts want to try and explore depth first hopefully to get to the result while algebraists go in breadth first -- to leave no kernel un-eaten in a nice systematic way.
I have noticed that when each kernel is firm and can be cleanly separated from the cob, I am more likely to do rows. When I do, though, I usually take a horizontal chunk at a time.

It occurs to me that these would make hilarious fortune cookies.
It is akin to choosing a breadth-first or a depth-first exploration (or corn consumption in this case) strategy. Analysts want to try and explore depth first hopefully to get to the result while algebraists go in breadth first -- to leave no kernel un-eaten in a nice systematic way.

Statistics?
My favorite topics that I have messed with so far are probably Number Theory and Logic. Pointers to resources or book recommendations welcome.
Sure enough, I prefer algebra and eat in rows. Creepy.
It's one of the few meals where its' socially acceptable to eat like a pig :)
