Homework Statement Hi i have an assignment that is asking me to convert 3 temperatures in fahrenheit to celcius and vice versa. I am very new to programming only 2 weeks in(and i learn by playing with the program) so I do not know all of the terminology / principles. I am not allowed to use...

Hi all, I have some queries to do, which I want to save as an .sql file. What program can I /must I use to do this? I think I remember at some point using plain old Notepad to write the queries, since these are made of standard English commands, nothing too fancy. Would this work? Thanks.

Homework Statement Make a program that converts numbers into roman numerals. Use strings, looping, and branching. The code posted is what I have so far, but I have no idea how to continue this program. I'm not sure if what I have so far is right or will even work or if I can use it at all...

Hey guys the Idea of simulating the DSE with a program caught my interest but I just had a few questions regarding the DSE Is there a function that models the probability of finding an electron at a certain point ONCE It's BEEN FIRED FROM AN ELECTRON GUN? like an amplitude function squared or...

Not long ago, a member posted a problem in the Homework section, concerned with determining which of the five-digit permutations of 4, 5, 6, 8, and 9 were divisible by 8. I first thought about writing some C code to figure this out, but when I discovered that Python has some functions that...

Hi, I often hear people say that a certain program (i.e. computer science, maths, etc) is better at one school than at another. For example, here in Canada a lot of people say that if you want to enter into computer science you should go to the University of Waterloo, because they have a...

Hi there, I am having a lot of struggles with program. I am not using this for any true kind of publication but more so we can reference material. However, it is very important that I have a coordinate system where I can plot the WCS. Whenever I try to save as a PNG or JPEG it does not...

PF Family, What is a good way to increase my chances of getting into a joint PhD/JD program. I'm physics major with a 3.86 GPA, a rising junior, and have plenty of math electives (if that helps). I am currently in an REU program at my school, and we are doing climate modeling. I am also doing...

I was wondering if anyone here has a program for their ti-89 that can add and subtract dimension in ff.iiss format. Also it would be great if you could convert ff.iiss to decimal feet and vise versa. For example I would want to enter in 10.0608 (10 feet 6 and a half inches) and convert it to...

Hello to all! I have written this 1D FDTD code but the results I take are very large and after some timestep they get to infinite/NaN... I really don't know what's wrong. The expressions I have used are the exact given solution for the Maxwell equations. Thank you for your help. program yee...

Hello, I have a working calculus library for java and want to use it in a program. I don't have very many ideas. I have limited Calc. II knowledge but a strong understanding of Calc. I. I have an intermediate understanding of java (took 3 courses at my high school of it), and a solid algebraic...

Generally is it as difficult to get into a PhD program in physics during the spring then it is during the fall? I'm asking because many of the schools I'm applying to say that most students are admitted during the fall but they give you the option to apply for the spring as well.

If you are a professor is it better to use Mathematica or Matlab when it comes to publishing papers, which program creates the best graphs. I have origin as well.

SPOILER: This will be a somewhat depressing rant. I like math (or, I THOUGHT I did), but have been feeling incredibly lazy and powerless recently. I'm currently a freshman undergrad, and I just failed Calc III. I've been barely scraping by recently, having gotten a 40 on the first midterm and a...
