This semester Im talking the following classes:
General Chemistry
Computer programming
Calculus 3
Another computer programming class.
School is always busy. In computer programming im learning how to create programs that will simulate mathematical formulas in matlab. It sound kinda boring and it is. i havent really learned anything yet that will help me do anything in the real world, however i will need to know this program for another class that i will take.
Calc 3 is a fun class for me. at the beginning of the semester we learned about vectors which was really nice for me because I learned about vectors in a statics and strength class ive taken. lately weve been going over gradients which is a vector (arrow) that points in a direction of greatest rate of change on a surface which can be used for finding information about tempratures of materials. double integrals are used to find the area under the surface of an equation which can be related to useful information.
My chemistry class is interesting. Im not sure why I need to take it for my major except that its apart of the major but its a tough class too like all the others.
