Undergrad Effort to get us all on the same page (balloon analogy)
It appears you are trying to teach us "conjectured" information. Nothing in Cosmology has ever been proven true... such as the big bang theory and other theories. Face it, there is only one Universe, it is infinite with no start and no end. It has always existed. There are some things that have... -

Graduate Universe is infinite-no beginning and no end
It makes no mathematical logic to say the universe started with a minute pinhead sized mass that suddenly exploded and start expanding. If this were true, then what entity is the mass expanding into? Humans must accept that the universe is infinite and unbounded... with no beginning and no end... -

Low voltage op amp to control high voltage series pass transistor
I have a question if you don't mind. 1. where is the output voltage taken across from? I'm asking where is your ground reference for the output voltage? ** The + input to the opamp is missing --- that will cause a problem- pullmanwa

How to determine which battery is new one?
Yeah... look at the serial numbers on each battery. I'd bet the larger serial number is the newer battery.- pullmanwa

Calculators with mod and custom functions
Perl Yeah... learn PERL and you can do that... or buy an HP48G+, that can do it.- pullmanwa

Which Calculator is Right for Me?
Have you considered an HP RPN calculator like HP48G+ or similar, why just TI? You'll find that RPN is more intuitive to use. I assume TI allows either mode of operation algebraic or RPN? Side note here... don't focus on being a programmer. Programmers are people that do the tasks for the...- pullmanwa

Graduate 3 paper dots fall from a 3-hole punch
Let's use some common sense here. Most 3 hole punches are about 30 inches from the floor. I don't think the dots are going to land 1 mile away... or even 20 feet away.- pullmanwa

Graduate 3 paper dots fall from a 3-hole punch
why would it be more interesting if the triangle was acute? I'm sure if I posed the problem ..."what is the probability they will land forming an acute triangle...", you would have responded "A rather more interesting question would be if the triangle was a perfect equilateral triangle."- pullmanwa

Graduate 3 paper dots fall from a 3-hole punch
3 paper dots fall from a 3-hole punch. what is the probability they will land forming a perfect equilateral triangle on the floor x-y plane? Assume the dots are point source singularities, real dots take up space. don't grid the floor because that will constrict rotations. I don't think...- pullmanwa
