My question is simple. And that is: How to find out the programming language used in creating the softwares that we use on our different platforms/architectures/instruction sets? Is there any method to find it? Is it necessary that all the windows based software use C/C++ to create softwares...

Hello all, I'm a current junior in High School. A year from now I'll be applying to schools for Physics or Astronomy, I have good-to-great grades, great SAT/PSAT scores, and I believe I can get into some top colleges. My question is regarding Langauge (French in particular), I've taken French...

hi, i have this project and we already have a code and the circuit but it is not working.. it's supposed to display the hours and minutes the problems are: 1. the hour display is not displaying anything 2. the minute displays but it is advanced by one minute so here's the code: TITLE CLOCK.ASM...

I've done a very small amount of C++, but I don't want to spend the time I have to prepare on learning a language when it would have been more preferable to learn another (even though it seems you may use several language, and learning one helps to learn another.) But are there any language...

Dennis Ritchie died on the 8th, but I didn't find out until today. He created the C programming language. http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2011/10/dennis-ritchie/"

I was wondering which programming language I should learn for general purpose calculations and physics simulations. I already know a bit java.

Can anyone please explain what is EOF in C programming language. Is it a value (numeric, character) or something else ?? While reading the book "The C programming language", by Ritchie I came across this term. The code was : #include <stdio.h> /* copy input to output; 1st version */...

Hi I am a UK student and I'll be applying for undergrad physics courses in the UK and hopefully mainland Europe to start next September - just in time for the £9000/year fees to kick in! Most of my chosen UK courses are "Year in Europe" courses anyway, since I would like to study abroad...

I am a boy from nepal. i am in my grade 12 and 15 years old. my language skills are below satisfactory but my physics is good. due to certain circumstances i was forced to take biology instead of mathematics. i am good at mathematics too . i want to study physics in my undergrad. in nepal...

Hi, I'm having a little trouble understand the idea of closure as so many places seem to describe it differently. I'm working on an example problem that states "L* is the closure of language L under which relations?" From what I gather, for a language to be closed over a relation, it means...

What really irks me is reading/hearing gendered language in science - or ANYWHERE for that matter! But especially in science, as it should use strictly non-gendered language, I strongly feel, to preserve objective scientific accuracy. "He" the observer, "he" the scientist, the "manned" space...

I'm interested in learning a new language simply for the sake of knowing one apart from English. I've heard much about French and Spanish, but cannot choose which one to learn. I'm guessing that Spanish would be more useful in the US seeing that there are so many who speak it. I'm tempted to...

My professor wanted us to create a program that will automate the computations for our leveling practices, e.g. Computing height of the instrument when elevation and backsight is given etc. that may be tabulated. I believe excel would be the best bet for that. But he also included that we must...

Wikipedia does a pretty good job at explaining how different calculators treat percentage differently. For example Google or Excel will say: 50 + 10% = 50.1 ... (== 50 + (10/100)) ...but Soulver or Microsoft Calculator will say: 50 + 10% = 55 ... (== 50 + (50*10/100)) I understand the...

Dunno if anyone have played a massive successful game called "Altitude", it's a multiplayer game, I have no idea what language it is coded, but I want to know is it possible to code a cheap mock up of the game with Java? And distribute it on Android?

What programming language is used when creating artificial intelligence.

I don't know much about this subject, so this is probably a very basic question. If I want to understand/explain something, I use inductive or deductive reasoning, which are parts of logic. For example, take this inductive reasoning: Every life form we know of depends on liquid water to exist...

I am just finishing up grade 11 and thought it would be worthwhile to learn a programming language over the summer. However, I'm unsure which language I would do best to learn. I can already code in Turing, HTML, and Java. I am most likely going to pursue an education in science or engineering...

I am new to programing in general, and I want to learn a language that will be useful to me as a physicist. I am currently looking mostly at C++, but Java and C# also seem like useful tools. I don't want to waste my time studying anything that I won't use. Any suggestions from those of you who...

Hello, I am a second year Mech Engineering student. I was co-oping this past spring and was introduced to programming/embedded systems in real life situations. Among this, simulation caught my attention as well. Have decided that it would be great to learn a language so that I can use it for...

"End the R-word" What you do all make of the campaign to end the usage of the word "retard"? I understand their motivation (to prevent emotional damage to those it offends), but I can't help but think another word will just replace it.

Hello hello, I'm currently trying to teach myself a language, Japanese. I'm using Rosetta Stone right now and things are going great for the most part. The problem I have is that it only teaches you what can be associated with a picture which works phenomenally with vocab. You also have to infer...

Hi I am thinking of learning french and/or russian. In the days of open source software, I am sure people have created great resources for this purpose. I am looking for such learning material. May be videos and stuff. Should have clear information on pronunciations. There is a lot of...

Polish language: the "ch" I'm having a doubt about the pronounciation of the "ch" in Polish. When it is followed by a vowell (like in the word "kocham") I know it's pronounced similarly to the "j" in Spanish or probably some arabic consonant. However when it ends a word (like in the word...

With China being an up and coming world power I am considering taking Chinese as a minor during my undergrad studies. Some of my friends think that this will be distracting and may take focus away from my other intense courses but I figure that the language is only 3 credit hours boosting my...

I'm currently going through the process of looking at schools I might transfer to next year and I'm surprised at the number of schools that require you to either pass a second language proficiency exam or to take 4+ semesters of a second language. Personally, being an older student, I feel...

Suppose L\sum* = L for an alphabet \sum . What can we say about the possible strings in L? I know that the \sum* is a collection of all possible words of a language and I know that 'L' is a subset of \sum* . So L concatenated with \sum* needs to be equivalent to L. I am stumped.

Homework Statement my notes say this: Conservation of momentum in one deminsion m1(v1initial-v1final) = m2(v2i-v2f) equation 1 Conservation of Kinetic Energy: mass1*(v1^2initial - v1^2final) = mass2(v2^2in - v2^2fin) equation 2 Then is says: on the left hand side...

hello everyone,:wink: i read somewhere that machine language program is the fastest when compared to assembly language and high-level languages program. i don't get it. i think you can say machine language program is already in 'exe' form. but once assembly language program and high-level...

Many colleges require that all students learn a foreign language, but I have no idea which one I would want to study. Right now I don't know which area of physics I want to go into, or where I want to live. I suppose that if I stay in the U.S. it doesn't really matter which foreign language I...
