    Is it possible or i am kidding my self?

    But the thing is, i solve the problems well, i learn new concepts fast cause i have developed the previous concepts. I have no issues recalling and my algebra skills hasnt stop me yet in learning calculus. While studying i became passionate about math, try to prove some theorems, formulas. So...

    Is it possible or i am kidding my self?

    Hello. I am in first year college studying electronics engineering and computer science and i am 20 years old. I recently did the national mathematics exam to go to college and had 160 out of 200. Ironic, huh? I failed math at 10 grade and stopped doing any math for 3 years. By the time of...

    Studying Are we supposed to read chapters in textbooks?

    My country has 5 technical courses, maybe + 1 humanitary course per semester I think 7 (if all technical) is just too much.

    Can a^0 Equal 1? A Simple Proof

    The definion of a^n is a.a.a.a - n times. So a^1 = a, a^2 = a.a and so on. Is it possible to define a^0 just using the definitions?

    Can a^0 Equal 1? A Simple Proof

    Well the best way to start those proves is with the axioms or definions. a^-1 is just the multiplicative inverse. a^n+m i will have to come up with a proof.

    Can a^0 Equal 1? A Simple Proof

    I was watching some lectures on complex analysis and in a proof, the lecturer defines 0 = 1-1. Then i was watching a movie and like an epiphanie, i came up with a proof. a^0 = a^1-1 = a^1 x a^-1 = a/a = 1. Is it good?

    Mathematics or Computer Science: Which Field Should I Pursue?

    I plan on getting a Master´s and a PhD which includes a lot of math and pysichs and even computational biology. The main issue is not the employment itself, they both have 0% unemplyment, but in the computer science, most students get full or part-time job interviews just before the end of the...

    Mathematics or Computer Science: Which Field Should I Pursue?

    Hello. I am writing this post, hoping, you can help me make a decision. This September i will aplly to University. I have two fields of interesting: Pure Mathematics and Computer Science. Which to choose? I was really bad at math a year ago, not knowing how to solve a linear equation. Now i...

    Studying Share self-studying mathematics tips

    Plug and chug exercises are like drills in sports, you practice, practice and practice to eventually become second nature. I had enough, because i just finnished a exam, that's why. I am more in a problem solving mood. But of course i will do most of the Lang´s book exericses. Thanks for the...

    Studying Share self-studying mathematics tips

    Good afternoon. I am planning on studying computer science or a math major, haven´t decided yet. I am passionate about programming, mathematics, pysichs and logic. I struggled at mathematics (3s and 4s out of 20, yes that bad!) because i didn´t see the beauty of it and now after becoming...
