Just because it's folded into itself doesn't mean you can't distinguish one side from the otber.

We where allowed a "computer without internet access" on an exam so we disconnected the network card in our laptops with all our notes.

I mean if we want to be technical everything is continuous even to the smallest degree in our 3D plane of existence. The paper has an edge-

which means that it "continues" to the other part of the paper. If we want to be more technical, even what you made has "sides."

It's a Möbius Strip. A surface with only 1 side and 1 boundary.

prett sure with as spaced out as the notes are they could have just used one side of the paper.

That's why you learn to write as tiny as possible. Made stat class so much easier when I could use notes.

The point of twisting a paper like that is so that both sides of the paper get used in machinery belts so it wears down both sides.

The "art" of writing it all down is wonderful for visualizing the equations when you need them; the card becomes less relevant.

I once sharpened a mechanical pencil with very high grit sand paper. It took all night to write out the card, but it worked!

In high school a teacher slowed one 3x5 index card so a student peeled off one side to give him 4 surfaces to write on. Teacher allowed it.

That sounds like a teacher willing to demonstrate the value of thinking outside the box.
