Memory Definition and 309 Threads

When I declare an array of size 24 mb in c++, I have discovered that the result is a runtime error if the declaration is made inside a function. If the declaration is made outside a function, then there is no problem. The problem exists with both VC++ Express and Cygwin GCC (GCC gives a...

Are there any good online courses for Calculus I. Or maybe some VHS or DVD's I can buy that will basically give me what a first semester of what Calculus I would teach me? I want to take Calculus II. I already took and passed Calc I a few years ago. The problem is that I don't remember...

"Arrow" of time, or "arrow" of memory? I need help understanding this. To me, it seems, well not to be over the top about it, but, well, pretty much ridiculous that there wouldn't be *the appearance* of an "arrow" of time that points in one and only one direction. Take the classic question of...

I have carried out a quick search on the Net but was unable to find anything that answered this question: How are pieces of information, for example, a date, stored in memory?

Alright so we did this stuff at the beginning of the year and haven't touched it until now and I can't remember exactly how it works... Say a ball is being spun in a vertical circular path and you need to draw a FBD for it at the highest point and lowest point on the circle. At the top you...

Being on this sort of forum I thought there would be people with quite good memories. Myself, I have great attention to detail and can remember many small things for a longer period of time. However for somethings I'm absolutely terrible. Math for example--I can "understand" how things...

The belief that an adult person cannot remember anything before the age of 3 is absurd. My earliest memory is of liking an outfit that I used to wear when I was a year old. My earliest concrete memory without pictures to accompany it occurred before I turned 2. How old were you at the time of...

I'm furious with Matlab. when I reach a 1*10.000 array or similar figures it says to me: "out of memory". Does anybody know how I can do larger the virtual memory dedicated to this programe?. I have a 40 GB and 500Mb RAM computer, so it would be enough for eating anything!.

http://my.webmd.com/content/article/89/100279.htm?z=1728_00000_1000_nb_04 I assume this may just be a case of bad reporting but the article appears to say that it can't be so its not. As reported, the logic appears to be completely circular.

I've been thinking.. If time is what a clock measures, at what rate does time pass? By definition, the same rate as the clock's hand moves, but that's just circular. Then, there's also "everything is stationary wrt itself", so how does any change occur at all? It just dawned on me that it is...

I have noticed that on days 28-4 my memory is awful. I have also noticed that during this period if I consume alcohol, I seem become intoxicated rapidly, and forget things much more than I normally would drinking the same amount. I tried to look at charts, but could not really work out a reason...

This is getting ridiculous. With my last installation of Firefox, which was an upgrade from Firebird, it used to take up a lot of memory and frequently halt. At the time I attributed this to the fact that it was not a new installation, but an upgrade from a previous version. However, now I've...
