    UIUC or Purdue: Which is the Better Choice for Electrical/Computer Engineering?

    I was leaning towards Purdue a bit at the time of posting mainly because I was reading through their ECE website and liked the sound of it. Plus the cost of Purdue is also better than UIUC. I had thought that undergrad rankings meant less than grad rankings but was not sure. I will probably...

    Assuming cost and location don't matter, does UIUC/Purdue have a distinct advantage over the other for electrical/computer engineering? Specifically I want to do something with integrated circuit design, mainly microarchitecture/VLSI design. Now I'm pretty sure that they're both ranked fairly...

    C/C++ Solve C++ Program Issue: Compute Square Root & Compare Difference >50

    Thanks for the quick response. I didn't notice the extra braces and using == instead of = was just dumb, but that fixed my syntax error. I read through your code and understand what you're doing - I think I was trying to do to much by trying to call another function in main. However, I still...

It's easy, but I seem to have issues with while loops. If someone would explain the logic or show me an example as to how they...
