Back to the discussion, why do you thin Indian education is bad? I studied there for quite some time and was quite delighted by the difficulty of the work. Think about it: 7:00 AM-Tuition, School, Tuition again, homework. How would that be considered not proper? The education there is a good 2 years past North American and European education system qualities. Speaking of Heron's formula, they teach that in standard 6 (in India that is).
I was originally born in India, where I learned something different then here in Canada. Here, I hear (word pun!) that the symbol for Integers is I, however I recall being taught that Integer was represented by Z (as in the German word Zahlen) meaning "to count upwards".
Yes, I should have clarified. After you use the specified formula, you get the Rational # in between by: x+d, x+2d, x+3d...x+nd. To give an example, lets say we have to find 3 rational numbers between 2 and 3. Therefore: x=2 y=3 n=3. Thus, d= (3-2)/(3+1)=1/4. So the n numbers are: 2 1/4, 2 2/4 and 2 3/4. This is fairly obvious, I just wanted to give the generalized formula.
Frankly, C++ is too...procedural. I tried Perl, but prefer Ruby instead. And I agree with Stefy, C++ is as if you are instantaneously doing something you have to, rather then enjoying programming.
I like Python. And Ruby.
What other reason to learn than to learn? Frankly, C++ it complex and gradually uninteresting.
For those of you who face those relatively hard rational number questions, here is a short answer to most of them. Usually, you see "Find n rational numbers between x and y". In the case that y<x, you can use the formula: d = (y-x)/(n+1). I used this formula long ago and it saved me from a lot of tests.
Learn. I want to adapt to a new language, rather the the usual web programming and developing C++ programs.
Any non-Java Runtime required languaes?
Really? Have the link?
Quite lucky. Agnishom, how did your project go?
Other than the first developers. And I don't like Mathematica as you have to pay after the trial is over. I heard 8 just came out though.
True. However, as I said, they often shared notes concerning their discoveries. Also, do you have to wait 60 seconds between posts, or does the rule no apply to staff? It is so annoying...
Learn JustBasic. It is exceptionaly easy. And I meant to learn Machine Code. It beats Assembly.
No doubt about that. Just tribulations over who discovered Calculus.
Which two? And woah?! Assembly? Learn machine.
Umn, sure.
Europe vs British. That is why Europe, at that certain point in time, was much furthur advanced then the latter.
Bobbym, what languages do you code in?
Leibniz and Newton supposebly shared letters describing their discoveries. But the only reason Newton is so popular is because of the Britishers.
Meh. By the way, sorry for hijacking this thread.
Okay then. You are pure oblivion. More oblivious than death.
Although I highly doubt anyobne would give heed to my suggestion.
Also, it is nt a very impressive list. Most languages (the BASICs) are very similar. Along with that, I don't seem to remember all the functions and occasionally have to look at the help file for the more complicated built-in functions. By the way, what languages do you program in?
Unfortunately, I do not see the point of these questions. Can someone simply not google the words for proper definitions, then paraphrase? Not imply that anyone here is cheating though.
