 Re: who else is barely gaming cuz of finals? Reborn wrote: It will be invaluable if you get into game/simulation programming though. Negative. That's more differential equations, signal transfer and series/sequences IMO, also: combinatorics/numerical methods/concepts of math. Calc in 3d is nothing compared to these. Do you need to use it in these? Nah. I have plenty of math majors who have firm beliefs that 3d calc is useless. Especially the way it's taught in college. The concepts of it are amazing - but the way they try to teach it limits students' use for it. _________________

Unless you're going into physics or engineering you won't need to recollect any of that. The entire course is a lead into flux - and curvature which comes in in stress analysis. Most other fields don't deal with 3d. I will be going into to structural engineering.

Most other fields don't deal with 3d. I will be going into to structural engineering. Pay attention to curvature. Beam bending/deflection/buckling is 200% curvature. _________________

Re: who else is barely gaming cuz of finals? Yeah, Thanks. That's what I figured since it's going to be important with what I want to do.

Re: who else is barely gaming cuz of finals? Structural engineering is a hard major to keep up with the distraction of n00bfest. I find it funny that I finally come back to gaming and the forums when my finals began...going to be an interesting two weeks.

Re: who else is barely gaming cuz of finals? I havent slept in almost 24 hours, I'm about to bomb my phil test, then hopefully do well on my Anth test. I have yet to move all my shit out, then I'm taking a mini mester starting next monday. Tonight I'm meeting a girl for dinner that I haven't talked to in 3 months. Today is going to be interesting.
