Evolution of Math as you get older

1 solar mass.

Don't pretend you aren't impressed.

That guy in white jacket/shirt just jumps forward. What a moron.

he jumps to the couch.he does not give a fuck

and he is lazy as fuck...


dont judge

Suns have different sizes.

Stars have different sizes, but we only have one Sun.

Oh, right, I got those mixed up.

Honest mistake.

classwork: 2+2=4
test: why do people not see aliens with purple hats?
a) 5
b) dubstep
c) the universe
d) a+b=c

A few months ago, I looked that up just so I could answer that question when it came up.

It's 1.99 nonillion (10^30) kilograms.

I'll take that award now, thanks.

Story of my life

because im a masochist

I don't like Maths and I'm doing a Computer Science degree course.

not for long you aren't

engineering is a much wider field than you think, and many types don't actually involve a lot of really complicated math.

I suck at math, but I like a challenge. Math is the only subject I've ever had to try in, so naturally I'm advanced by two years and plan on being some type of an engineer.

You don't think too much of yourself then...

I didn't like Maths in High School, I found some of it interesting, but I preferred Physics.
So far, my course has been mostly physics the only maths we've used was integration and differentiation.

The difference that made me prefer Physics over Maths, is that Physics gives you real life situations, eg: How the mass of the car effects its acceleration etc. Whereas in maths, you were given a a random string of letters and numbers and told to find x, with no known purpose to it.

He doesn't math well, grammar too.

There are only 10 types of people in the world.
Those who understand binary and those who don't

There are 10 types of people in this world.
The one that understands hex and the fifteen that don't.

mfw I actually got that right away.

**printerr rolled a random image posted in comment #2806628 at My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic ** Isn't it supposed to be 1+1=10 if you're talking about binary numbers?

yes, pretty much.
1+1 = 0 carry 1.

Oh, ok then.

Logically 1+1 is 1. Arithmetically it's 10.

imaginary numbers are your best friend when you're trying to find the square root of those pesky negative numbers

just kidding i gave you a thumb

I'm failing Calculus 3(1 and 2 were child's play), and Linear Algebra..

I spend more than 14 hours a week studying for them, each subject...

The teacher is impressed with the 30% (out of 100) test score average in a class of 100 students, and refuses to give a raise...

on the other hand, I'm doing computer science and scored a perfect 100 on all 4 programming courses and Database management..

why do I have to take these math courses? I love programming but they are a huge block for me, I even got a tutor and still managed to fail

It's a pain the ass. I know what you mean.

I am a weak mathematician. It's like the only class I never made an A in after 5th grade.

Compared to most people here, I took some pretty easy courses for college. I signed up for College Algebra in high school, so I wouldn't have to worry about it later. Got a B.

Finished my PreCal with a C.

The cool thing is when I changed my major to Theatre (yeah, I'm not an engineer like most of FJ apparently, but I love the program) I was told I had all the required math courses. I'm pretty happy.

But if worst comes to worst safo, try a different professor for your next semester. If Pre Cal 1 and 2 were easy then you shouldn't be making a bad average. That's just a shitty professor.

As a teacher of English as a foreign language, I feel obligated but ashamed to say that that math looks fucking terrifying to me. I'm pretty sure I see some Russian letters in there.

as a teacher of english language in training, i absolutely agree with you.

remind me of my crush

Why the fuck are there upside down and backward ass fucking letters

The first statement reads: "There exists a c in the set of positive real numbers and there exists a B in the set of natural numbers, such that for all n in the set of natural numbers, n greater than or equal to B implies that S(n) is less than or equal to c U(n)."

It's just a sentence. Although I'm not sure if N means the set of natural numbers in this case. I'm a pure maths guy, so it could be a specific computer science set just denoted by N.

And this gentlemen is why im going into the biology field. Not a whole lot of math, I hope

Biology uses simple dynamics, probability theory, mathematical statistics and even calculus. You can't escape mathematics. It demands your soul.

lol noob the answer is 42

what the fuck is this

Ok, even though I just aced Single Variable Calculus, that looks fucking TERRIFYING!

I miss single variable calculus T_T
Fucking multi-variables.

I know. Although we're getting into manifolds, or smooth k-dimensional objects, now. Goodbye reality. :c

I don't even remember getting a single variable any more...
Its always systems now which albeit are just as easy.

There exists a c of R+, B of N, for every n of N, n>= B implies the running time is less than or equal to a multiple of the upper bound?

It's not a question. It's a series of statements.

The backwards E means "there exists", the upside-down A means "for all", and so on. You can read them like a sentence.

This was my answer to the question "Define the upper bound for the best case running time on a given algorithm." on an assignment that took around 10 hours to finish (non-stop).

Aerospace Engineering race reporting in...

FROM FUCKING SPACE

c'mon that shit ain't rocket science...... wait.

Can't Electrical and Mechanical Engineers also apply to be an astronaut? They wont be practical in the aerodynamics etc of the ship, but would still be ideal for working on electrical appliances and engines within the ship. (Ship being Spaceship, not a boat)


I hope they can, Im doing Mechanical, and I hope to be able to apply to the ESA (I would do NASA, but you need to be American for that, so I'll have to stick with Europe.)

Physics race reporting. What is anything?

I don't remember, all i see are waves and hex now... its bad when you give your number to someone in hex...

Comp Sci reporting in.I think they're those things that are assigned to variables by the user.

Chemical engineer reporting in.... Don't talk, it makes you sound stupid.

son of a bitch i looked right

<---- Don't look right

If you ever look right, you lose.

Hush. They must never know our secret code.

Technically, no. It's a mathematical constant. e is not a number, what it corresponds to is.
