I would think that a summer internship in software development would do you a lot of good. Your experience in C++ and your good analytical skills should be enough to get you a decent one. If you do, there's a good chance they'll offer you a job after graduation.

I'm not that picky about it, I'd just like to be in a larger metropolitan area(I doubt that will be a limiting factor). I'll definitely apply to graduate school, I'm just wondering what I would do if I decided not to go for whatever reason. Also, I'm trying to look for a job that's more math...

Hello everybody, I'm currently majoring in Applied Discrete Mathematics with a minor in Computer Science and I was wondering what sort of career options I have. I've already taken two semesters of Object Oriented Java programming, C++, Python, Combinatorics/Graph Theory, Modern Algebra...

I think most definitely it can help. If you can write a program to do the easier parts of your math homework(solving a system of linear equations, factoring polynomials, finding maximum/minimum, etc.), then you've already mastered how to do the problem. As far as which programming language to...

Case closed.

##=0 +[0+\frac{cos(n{\pi}t)}{n^2\pi^2}|_{-1}^0-[0+\frac{cos(n{\pi}t)}{n^2\pi^2}|_{0}^1## ##=\frac{cos(0)}{n^2\pi^2} - \frac{cos(-n\pi)}{n^2\pi^2}-\frac{cos(n\pi)}{n^2\pi^2}+\frac{cos(0)}{n^2\pi^2}## ##=\frac{1}{n^2\pi^2} - \frac{cos(-n\pi)}{n^2\pi^2}-\frac{cos(n\pi)}{n^2\pi^2}+\frac{1}{n^2\pi^2}...

I think I see where I went wrong :oldbiggrin: Looks like it was just a silly case of the negative signs cancelling each other. Should be: ##=0 +[0+\frac{cos(n{\pi}t)}{n^2\pi^2}|_{-1}^0-[0+\frac{cos(n{\pi}t)}{n^2\pi^2}|_{0}^1##...

Oh, I see what you were asking. Sorry.:smile: ##a_n = \frac{2}{2}\int_{-1}^{1}f(t)cos(n\omega t) \, dt= \int_{-1}^{0}(1+t)cos(n\omega t) \, dt + \int_{0}^{1}(1-t)cos(n\omega t) \, dt ,## ##=\int_{-1}^{0}cos(n\omega t) \, dt +\int_{-1}^{0}tcos(n\omega t) \, dt +\int_{0}^{1}cos(n\omega t) \, dt...

Well, these are the generic formula for the Fourier Series for a function. ##\omega = \frac{2\pi}{\tau}=\frac{2\pi}{2}=\pi##, I guess I wasn't as explicit about it but I considered it trivial.

^This. This is easily the best programming book I've seen. I think, however, that Python is a better language for a new programmer, and I'd recommend the MIT OCW 6.00 course from Fall 2008...

Homework Statement Find the Fourier Coefficients for the triangular wave equation shown in this picture: Homework Equations ##f(t)= a_0 + \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_{n}cos(n{\omega}t) + \sum_{n=1}^\infty b_{n}sin(n{\omega}t)## ##a_0 = \frac{1}{\tau}\int_{-\tau/2}^{\tau/2} f(t) \, dt## ## \omega =...

Right now I'm reading Kernighan and Ritchie's The C Programming Language. Is there a java equivalent that I can find at the library? I just need a java book that teaches you how to program(mainly with examples aimed at science/engineering) but let's you decide which compiler/environment to use.

Hey everybody, I need to learn Java for a course I'm taking in the spring(my C++ course fulfills the prereq for our java intro to data structures course) and I need to get a working knowledge of java. I've been reading the book for the class I'm not taking, but it's essentially built around a...

So I did a little research, and I think I found a good place if anyone else has the same question as me(in an attempt to prevent re-inventing the wheel). It's the 2012 brochure for a Summer REU in Computational Chemistry at the University of Georgia and it has a list of classes and interests...

Hey there folks! I'm a math/computer science major focusing on scientific computing and I was wondering what courses I would need to take in my undergrad to be able to help out in Computational/Theoretical Chemistry. I've taken general chem and taking P Chem soon, is this enough or are there...
