TOW the Programming

【洪】ILHONG 2005. 1. 24. 02:46

I have never enjoyed any kind of applied sciences or applied mathematics, except financial mathematics.

Well, they are rather dull and boring to me compare to the beauty I see in the abstractness of pure science and pure mathematics.

Yet, no matter what, currently I am enrolled for another Numerical Analysis...

So far, my professor has given us 7 programming exercises using mathematica, and I did only two so far. However, I have to submit all of them by THURSDAY!!!!

Sigh... I don't understand anything because I am not prepared for anything. All those methods look so simple, but I just can't type them out on my Mathematica. I spent almost 4 hours for nothing, because I had an error, because I put "g" instead of "g[x]"... (where g is a function, and was used for integration in Gaussian Quadrature, which I don't exactly know what the hell that is...)

Sigh...

What have I done so far in this course? practically nothing... I read and read... and understand the methods, and I can't write down the programming... I respect Jaeyoun형 who spent 4 years with me while being stucked to the computer programming. I can't even do simple programming exercises in Mathematica... it's very simple, but a few simple erros I make are really irating me... I am not that easygoing after all...

My weekend wasted on correcting a few erros on my programming...
and I have exam on this thing on Thursday as well...
I wonder what really will happen...
