Program Definition and 1000 Threads

I am an Undergraduate in Electrical Engineering. I have been in an internal struggle about a PhD; I am particularly interested in Applied physics programs since traditional physics programs bore me, and my interests include medicine. I have taken upperlevel physics in mechanics, E&M 1,intro...

Following my previous thread, it seems I don't have the background to apply to MS programs in mathematics directly since I was an undergraduate computer science major. If I need to supplement the courses I have taken in order to gain acceptance to a top program for an MS in mathematics, would...

Homework Statement Hello. I want to write a program which finds the largest number in the sequence typed in by the user. However, when I type in a number it not only gets printed as the input value but gets re-printed as if I have done the print function of that number (though the final answer...

Homework Statement See code below: The Attempt at a Solution I am simply trying to get the code to work: When I try to compile, the terminal says that apparently the package ptolemy.plot.* package does not exist and so does not recognise statements like PlotFrame etc.. Why is this...

I have a question. If one decides to enroll in a terminal masters program (such as one designed for students with a full time job), then later leaves industry to pursue a PhD, how would that look on a PhD admittance committe vs taking the usual route of getting a masters with thesis first? Is...

I borrowed a high-quality oscilloscope from Tektronix and when we did our measurements, I basically printscreened each new signal. If I had realized I could export the waveforms, I would have, but I didn't. Basically, I know what the function looks like, but I need to find its integral...

I'm looking to apply for a PhD program in Medical Physics. I am currently majoring in Medical Physics, but my GPA is only a 3.33. I have been doing research and see people who are applying with much higher GPAs than mine. My question is: if I don't get accepted anywhere, what should I do?

Looking at some German/Swiss masters programs (mainly computational mechanics in Stuttgart, München, Lausanne) but having a tough time figuring out the admission process for international students. Do they generally only look at your bachelor's degree GPA and nothing else or does other stuff...

So I was wondering what mathematics I will need under my belt before starting at a brand name graduate school(MIT, UChicago, UC Berkely, CalTech, Harcard, etc...) if I were going to specialize in particle or soft-matter physics. Thank you!

Columbia or VCU Medical Physics Program?? I was recently accepted to the Medical Physics Programs at Columbia and Virginia Commonwealth University. I am wondering if anyone has any insight on how the programs are at both of these schools. I know that Columbia obviously has a prestigious...

Hello everyone. I'm new here and I'm not not a computer science student. But, I have to take programming to complete my degree. So, now I'm in a great depression about this assignment. My lecturer ask me to write a program to find root of an equation f(x)=0 for specific f. Both methods are...

I saw a picture of what it might look like when I was researching it, but I'm confused about something. The picture's caption said that the complex coordinates were darkened as their value got larger, leading to a helpful graph, but I do not understand what scale they used. For my program, I...
