homercles posted:programming language thread thanks I wasn't aware of that thread post your favourite idiocy duck monster posted:CI is purely for reassuring blinkenlights for nervous clients, as far as I'm concerned. shrughes posted:You should make sure one of those electives is "Math Analysis" or "Real Analysis" or "Analysis" -- whatever is the first "analysis" course that all math majors have to take at your school. It's probably the course math majors are expected to take after whatever "proofs" is. lonters run around posted:I'm pretty good at math and I'm good at making like algorithms. I helped some project by making methods for compressing and decompressing video, and I've made a pong clone in low level C to run on a Xilinx Spartan FPGA (including keyboard and VGA output drivers), I know how x86 works with all the registers and logic... but I have no idea how to make for example an app on my Android smartphone, or anything beyond a text-based app on a PC. How would I begin learning things like that? I know there's something called libraries...? those are just from the last page

numerical analysis was a required class for my cs degree and teh average cumulative mark was 45%

that's stuff wasn't required for cs at all at my uni but I started as a physics major as well so I took through diff eq anyway. I don't remember a lot of how to do diff eq, but I did calc for long enough (learned it in HS first) that I still remember it.

i remember the pde stuff that was basically breaking stuff down to fourier components after separation of variables, but i would have a hard time solving an ode by hand irl if i got asked to analyze a system of differential equations i would immediately go to graphical methods

Ridgely_Fan posted:i remember the pde stuff that was basically breaking stuff down to fourier components after separation of variables, but i would have a hard time solving an ode by hand yea I remember being taught a bunch of techniques to analytically solve certain classes of ODEs by hand and I don't remember any of them and probably wouldn't have used them much anyway. THat class was neat though, also taught numerical analysis and ~computer~ methods. oh yea also since you mentioned fourier there is the laplace transform I might be able to remember that if I looked some stuff up about it. I do remember what the fourier transform is, if not how to do it analytically, because it's super useful.

fourier transform is useful as all hell i think ive learned it separately like 5 times. in pdes, for signal processing / wavelets, in real analysis (the graduate one), in a data course (useful because it also went over sampling issues and windowing functions). theres probably one more ive been in school a long drat time is what im sayin

Ronald Raiden posted:I deffo don't remember ANYTHING about solving pde's. i took a couple classes on pdes and they were loving awful and in the end it was a punt because the class of pdes you can actually solve compared to the class you can't is empty and the answer is always "numerically approximate it using these interesting algorithms" and so i took some numerical analysis classes that were rad as hell basically diff eq classes are the math dept trolling you

pdes aren't for solving, they're for classifying the bifurcations of.

bob arctor posted:i hated calculus it was the only subject that got in the way of my drinking. a mathematician walks into a bar, he orders a beer. Another mathematician walks in, he orders half a beer. Another one walks in, orders a quarter beer. Another one, and Eighth of a beer. The bartender says gently caress you and pours 2 beers. the moral of the story is that mathematician jokes aren't funny + if infinity mathematicians come into your bar and order 2 drinks total they are assholes and also you probably exceeded the occupancy limit of the bar and the fire dept will get pissed. Also they probably drink a lot more than that.

unless they tip well, like if you get a dollar per drink, regardless of drink size, that's infinity dollers, and only the federal reserve has that much.
