    Schools What college classes cover hypercubes and topology?

    Some calculus textbook will include some discussions on hypersphere, cube etc. I get the impression that they are pure mathematical exercise with no real world applications.

    Summer getting too hard for you? Post your Fall Schedule to cool down

    Fall 2011: Circuits Signals and Systems Analytical Methods for EE majors Fourier Analysis Electromagnetism 16 semester credit hours, might drop one just to have some time to do some self-study on computer programming

    How does one become proficient in programming?

    I agree with the comment that learning things at its most fundamental level is the way to start. However, the book I'm using for C doesn't have too much information about how computers actually store data (other than the fact they are stored in binary). If you know any good readings about...

    How does one become proficient in programming?

    Good stuff guys, thanks! I'm an EE major, so in order for me to take a class on data structures and algorithm I would have to declare a minor in CS. A minor in CS in my school requires 16 credit hr worth of work. At the moment, I have no plan to do that. Would you say the subjects mentioned...

    How does one become proficient in programming?

    Hello all, I'm currently taking a programming course using C, and I find programming to be pretty interesting. After I finish the course, I want to learn a couple other popular programming languages (C++, java etc) on my own. So, what should I do to REALLY become good at programming...

    Is there any quantum mechanics in electrical engineering?

    Most graduate level optics and photonic (I guess they are under EE's umbrella) requires QM.

    Engineering Optical Engineering career path?

    Sorry to hijack this thread, but I'd like to ask a question about optical engineering, too. How's the job prospect for someone with an BSEE degree with optics & photonic concentration? Because Optical engineering is usually offered as an graduate degree, I get the feeling that job prospects...

    Engineering Which engineering degree will be highly sought after in the future?

    I think EE. If there's a technological breakthrough (think electronic products), it tends to happen within the fields of EE.

    Is This First Order Differential Equation Separable or Bernoulli?

    Homework Statement Solve x2y'=1-x2+y2-x2y2 The methods I've learned so far are: Separable, Linear, Exact, Homogeneous, and substitution for Bernoulli's D.E. The equation is not linear, exact, or homogeneous. That leaves only two possible methods to use, separate it or get it into the...

    Help me check my HW (area under a curve)

    Yea, the formula I used is off that's why I was not able to figure out which part I made a mistake on. While on the subject of formula, do I switch formula when I have an increasing function?

    Help me check my HW (area under a curve)

    I looked at my setup again, but I still don't see the mistake. Where did you get the 1 from? [4 - (1 + k(1/n))^2] can you explain a little more please? Thanks

    Help me check my HW (area under a curve)

    Homework Statement I need to use the right endpoint formula to find the area under the curve f(x) = 4-x2 over the interval [1,2] I integrated this problem and got 5/3. But doing it the long way got me 11/3. Can someone where I made my mistake on applying the right endpoint formula, thanks...
