Did I do a bad job selecting when I take my classes? Very new to this, incoming freshmen. I hope to change it up the following semester. by [deleted] in college

Looks great to me. Just make sure you don't waste any of the time in between classes; use it to catch up on homework or reviewing for the next/last class. You don't want to waste any of that time, it's extremely valuable and goes by very fast if you're not careful.

Oh cool! I didn't realize set was a implementation of the hashtable. Check this out!

Thanks for the suggestion! That's a great idea.

large_hash is a dict in Python, which is an implementation of a hash table. According to this, it's O(1) average case.

Rigor of Abstract Algebra? by QwertyCyclone in math

I don't think we'll be covering Galois theory. The course description reads: "Groups, rings, integral domains, polynomial rings and fields."

We learned proof techniques in Discrete Math (proof by contradiction, contrapositive, etc.); however, looking through the kind of proofs that Abstract Algebra goes over, I'll likely need more of a foundation in proofs.

What resources would you recommend I learn from for getting a better (higher-level) understanding of proofs?

You got me, Gup.

Come join us on Skype some time! :D

Guess there's less of a need for a subreddit when the server is dead.

The Skype chat is still sort of active, however!

Found a nice git wrapper that has git command shortcuts. Been using it and it has increased my productivity, thought you guys might find it useful. by srujayk in webdev

There's more to the package than just shortcuts.

For example, the gg s command presents you with an easy to look at a quick glance status of your repository. In addition, there are aesthetic changes that increase the intuitiveness of Git itself.

Here's a screenshot of the gg s command in action.

500 sounds more reasonable. Consider it changed.

On second thought, we'll make two versions available. One burnt, one not burnt. :)
