    Dilema in choosing elective subjects from a Computer Science syllabus

    I think not, since I haven't went through those courses. I don't have physics in my syllabus

    Dilema in choosing elective subjects from a Computer Science syllabus

    Yeah, no particular interest in web development. Also, I have databases as an obligatory subject in another semester. And I think I'm going to become a Data Analyst, looking from my interest in subjects, but I'm not 100% sure.

    Other Should I Become a Mathematician?

    I started the Coursera course "Introduction to Mathematical Thinking" which is a course that helps students shift from high school level mathematical thinking to university level mathematical thinking. I couldn't continue with Apostol I was way too slow. I might continue tho, after I get a solid...

    Other Should I Become a Mathematician?

    I'll be studying computer science and engineering in three months time so I thought I'd use these three months for some preparation. I have calculus and discreet math in the first two semesters so I got Calculus Vol 1 by Apostol but it's proof heavy, do I need that much for college or should I...

    Prove an Associative Law (set theory)

    Aha so firstly we prove how the left side is equal to the right and then how the right side is equal to the left?

    Prove an Associative Law (set theory)

    So, for (A \cup B) \cup C. Suppose x \in (A \cup B) \cup C. That means x \in (A \cup B) or x \in C. From x \in (A \cup B) we can derive that x \in A or x \in B.

    Prove an Associative Law (set theory)

    If x is an element of A U (B U C). That means that x is either in A, B or C. If x is an element of C U (A U B). That means that x is either in A, B or C.

    Prove an Associative Law (set theory)

    Homework Statement Prove that: A\cup(B\cupC) = (A\cupB)\cupCHomework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I never had to prove anything but I'll try. A\cup(B \cupC). Take: A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, B = {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}, C = {7, 8, 9, 10} (B\cupC) = P If A\cupP means A, united with the union of B...

    Engineering Computer Science or Computer Engineering

    I had a conversation with a friend yesterday(he's writing his diploma thesis in Comp. Engineering at the moment), about which program(if that's the right word) I should choose but he didn't know the Comp. Sci. syllabus so he suggested me to ask here. I'm sure this question has been asked...
