:O hey! cowling n steele never kicked me out when i came in half an hour late! n they were really good lecturers! n steele was a good tutor.. n i like hirschhorn :p he wrote *perfect* on my test paper n came up to me n told me that hes never done that before! yay! :p i like em all :) hehe

Q6 is easy to type up: i) f(x) -> f(a) as x -> a ii) 0 <= |f(x)| <= |x| When x = 0, 0 <= |f(0)| <= 0 Thus f(0) = 0 lim 0 <= lim |f(x)| <= lim |x| as x -> 0 0 <= lim |f(x)| <= 0 Thus f(x) -> 0 = f(0) as x -> 0 so f is continuous at 0 check me

For those of u saying that the maximum is "20 in the positive direction", r u guys saying that for vectors u = (u1, u2, ..., un) v = (v1, v2, ..., vn) max{u , v} is defined? What does it mean for one vector to be "greater" than another!?! I'd say the question's referring to...

really? java does that to u? :p hehe.. i dont really like java compared to c.. meh anyway, about the problem - its just iteration! it cant b that hard Rach!! :p I guess this would work.. int userInput, n = 1, i; cin >> userInput; for (i = 0; i < userInput; ++i) { n = n...

hehe! acmilan's program will never end if userInput >= 2. hahah :p sorry.. :p acmilan's logic will work if u replace the "n" in the 'for' condition with "userInput". EDIT: Um, no that won't work either

Usually 'break' and 'continue' is used in place of properly formed if-then-else statements. Your teacher probably wants you guys to learn how to properly structure your programs using an if-then-else structure rather than 'jumping around'. You don't need to bother about what the progam does...

Oohh :( :( I know, I found out about the Comp Science specialisations the other day too, and there're lots of courses that I'd like to do but cant. :( Oohh :( I'm too far gone into my program tho. But I like it anyway. I like it I like it I like it.

I don't really understand your argument, but it's easy to disprove your "always" statement with this counter-example: y = -x^3 y' = -3x^2 y" = -6x y"' = -6 yet y = -x^3 has a horizontal point of inflexion. but i dunno if ive understood ur statement either! :)

Anyway, you can 'cheat' by making haskell sort of iterative... f :: Int -> Int -> Int -> Int -> Int -> Int -> Int -> Int f reg1 reg2 reg3 reg4 reg5 reg6 reg7 = ... Hah, just do it like the cpu does

Or if you don't like drawing, 1. cos(x) = sqrt(square(cos(x))) = sqrt(1 - square(sin(x))) 2. sin(y) = ... (Use above technique) 3. sin(x-y) = sin(x)cos(-y) + cos(x)sin(-y) = sin(x)cos(y) - cos(x)sin(y) ... and use the given values and 1. and 2. 4. tan(y) = sin(y)/cos(y) 5...

oops! i'm really sorry DistantCube. i was a bit drunk last night. sorry sorry sorry.

You can replace "cos" by "sin" above.

One way is to shift the y=sqrt(x) curve down by 5, so that you are revolving y=sqrt(x)-5 about the x-axis (which is y=0). The answer is then: pi * integrate[(sqrt(x)-5)^2]dx from 0 to 4.

Hey, have any of you guys been to a Careers workshop before? Or one of those Individual Assistance consultations? What do they do to you there? Is it just a very general talk on resumes and cover letters, like what you can read on the Careers website or books? And what about Individual...

What does PL and QL stand for? Yeah, we also use the implies symbol ( ->, =>, <->, etc) and letters and stuff. I'm not suprised that this is studied in philosophy. One afternoon I was drifting through the philosophy section of the uni library and picked up a book on its history. Believe...
