fsck! I screwed up big time.. One of the integration one with limits to infinity ended up with huge, long equation. Hope I got it right..

I meant the computing stream :p (i.e 1011)

I know, it's quite unfortunate you two ended up in the wrong computing stream :p.

hrmm I can see what happens: somefirstyearguy : Hey, do you know where (someotherguy) is? anotherfirstyearguy : Oh, they're playing cluedo over there. somefirstyearguy : Oh screw lower comp. Im just gonna play blackadder and baldrick.

Haaa! no wonder every second person in my INFS class seemed to have come from syd boys...

??? ok Im mathematically challenged, so I dont understand :p (for some reason, i really am now :S)

Couldn't agree more, except please wear head protection for your safety :) One of the reason discrete seems so hard is because it's hard to understand, and a chapter of it requires you to know many proofs from first year uni maths to do well at. And to make things worse, they don't give...

judging on quality based on leniency? my tutor lets you finish everything at home and e-mail it to him :p

oh, thanks for that! this theorem looks like as if it'll be my best friend during that exam time :). oke thanks a lot for the helps people, really greatly appreciated :D

Hi, just another silly question: prove that log(5)15 is irrational. Tried to go the old log₁₀3 way, but now it all boils down to trying to prove that 3^q != 5^m where q and m are integers. or was I just lead in the wrong direction?

ok great, that one looks pretty good for me :D now for next question (bet your wondering when this will end): let a and n be integers, greater than 1. prove aⁿ - 1 is prime only if a = 2 and n is prime. Is the converse of this statement true? Show that 2ⁿ + 1 is prime...

theirs might look funny for a while, prime example of geekdom :).

ok thanks for that, cheers :) just another simple question (I think this thread title should be changed to "basic questions for my algebra exam") prove that log₁₀3 is irrational. Now for this one I started with stating its contrary, that log₁₀3 = p/q (whereas p & q...

okay, can you please expand the "minor algebra" part? Im algebraically, mathematically and logically challenged here :). cheers for the solution though

this question is so annoying, someone help me! prove: sqrt(5 + sqrt(5)) - sqrt(5 - sqrt(5)) > 1 is there any general tips with square roots that appear like this? thanks in advance :)

dean's choice :D btw anybody know how to derive GPAs from WAMs? or is it not supposed to be from WAMs? (<-- confused being)

hrmm.. I don't even know the rules.. im gonna have to ask this in the forum sometimes later. Damn removed chit-chat in 1011 :S

and you can always go to the math labs (which happens to often be not-full). Although in my opinion the math lab comps are very sluggish (compared to cse).

hrmm.. I dont see much need for buying it, maybe using the math lab ones are better..

Wow!!! (I think that makes me even more wanting to become a teacher next year :p). money + disk space = very good prospect!
