I like computers but I'm stupid.

I still think this is the coolest quick explanation of computer science (from 200,000 feet up ) I have seen.



NOTE: This is a different class than the one I posted earlier in the thread.

thanks everyone for the input. especially you Baseline. It does interest me still just I hope my teachers don't suck. For me teachers can make or break my interest.

I hope things work out for the best. You'll still have to put in tons of work no matter how good your teachers are though. Calc is pretty easy until you get to multivariable (where it gets really interesting), so definitely put the effort in to get strong at it that first semester or two so you're ready for the hard stuff.

dont listen to him. calc is the devil if you didnt take it in high school. youll have angry asian, indian and russian professors teaching you the same theorems but in different written notations. theyll expect you to know what theyre talking about, although youve never seen their notation before or cant hear a damn thing they say.

then the exams are those theorems but applied to trigonometric functions, which you dont cover during lecture or the homework.

good luck

If lakaluva can get a C in it then it can't be that bad.

sons you all fail to note on thang. You dont learn in da classroom, you learn by yourself. Note dis on yo fridge.

Im not a math doc thogh i have excellent skill at it (post grad level) but math will not be the enemy. All da theorems will be hard if you expect 2 understand them in the classroom. Furthermore, in first years of college physics can really teach u alot of math much more intuitively. Da only enemy is expecting somethang and waiting for it to be served. You gotta go get it son!
