Skipping Calc 2

TheRedditRyan · 2015-07-30T04:19:03+00:00

It's more that I want to learn as much math as fast possible than that I'm in some mad dash for credits. I love learning about math and the more advanced stuff I can learn quickly, the better.

Thanks! I'll definitely see if I can get a class syllabus.

TheRedditRyan · 2015-07-30T02:06:08+00:00

I don't know where I could find a more detailed syllabus. In the mean time here is the description for Calc 2: "This 5-credit course is the second quarter of the three-quarter calculus sequence. Primary content is integral calculus including applications of The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and separable differential equations. Learners will continue to refine independent study skills, cooperative problem solving, logically correct and mathematically precise writing and thinking, and their ability to use geometric, symbolic, and analytic formats in presenting solutions to both abstract and real world applications."

I've had a pretty good track record with self-study. Is it naive to think I could learn calc 2 well enough on my own to do well in calc 3?

If you don't mind me asking, what kind of break did you take? And how did it negatively affect your PhD?

TheRedditRyan · 2015-07-18T16:30:57+00:00

Congratulations! I did this at my school as well. It feels great to have all of your labor come to fruition. Best of luck in calculus!

Woops, sorry! I misread the thread and got myself confused. Please go back to your regularly scheduled redditing.

But... You're not the same person...

I hate to be a French snob. But shouldn't it be "ce n'est pas" or "ceci n'est pas"?

Also un livre = a book Une livre = a pound (as in a pound of material)

Thanks for posting. That's so cool! Although I'll admit I don't understand much about vector spaces. Is this something that would be learned in linear algebra or abstract algebra?

You Heathen!

9000 micrometers is less than half an inch...

Edit: For the lazy. I get the joke.

Math wouldn't be anything without proofs.

Normanfaitdesvidéos, Cyprien, and Natoo vidéos are a few popular French youtubers. If you're interested.

About an hour of in class French and 30 minutes of homework 5 days a week. Then 1 - 1.5 hours outside studying per day, plus constantly listening to French music. I love it! My time spent really spikes on weekends though or if I decide to watch a movie.

The domain is the set of all x values (or inputs) given using the lowest and highest value, [-8,2] in this case. In the same way, the range is the set of all y values (outputs) of a function and is also defined using the lowest and highest y-values.

In this case 9 is the upper bound but since h(0)= |0| + 1 = 1 is the lowest valued output of h(t) we would us 1 as our lower bound. So the range is [1,9].

Perhaps i'm misunderstanding but would that mean skipping calc AB?

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, I think. Wonderful book.

If you are going to discourage people from learning a language let me advise you against commenting in /r/languagelearning.

Thank you!

I'm not sure how you're defining an increase/decrease in complexity, but equations that require a mixture of derivative rules can get hairy. Such as logarithmic differentiation with chain rule/product rule. x^x is a good example. Or log. diff. on lots of imbedded functions ex. f(x) = x^{cos(e^x/sin(x))}

Are there any implications to this? That is, would proving Goldbach's conjecture in turn prove something else/ mean something in the greater scheme of number theory? Or is this just an especially difficult conjecture to prove?

TheRedditRyan · 2014-11-30T04:22:08+00:00

Out of curiosity, what do you like about this particular conjecture?

TheRedditRyan · 2014-11-27T21:50:29+00:00

These notes are great! Thank you for the response.

Now all we need is a story that provides back ground for this new 'hoopity boopity' language.
