Maths never makes sense. I did my bachelor's in mathematics and all i remember is discrete was easy. Thats it 😂😂

[@rehmanarshad1848]

Calculus deals with abstract math, and limits going to infinity. Discrete Math in simpler terms is Finite Math. You're not going to deal with a lot of abstract math, ... until your reach proof by induction, and the power series. Set Theory and combinatorics is involved but toned down and a lot more simpler. A lot fun, and amazing graph theory. Finite State Automata is included in the curriculum but we never covered it, at all! The thing is Discrete Math used to be a 2 semester long course Discrete Math I, and Discrete Math II, now it's just 1 course with all the content mashed together.

Why is Calc 2 always difficult no matter the university? They called our Calc 2 professors "The Gatekeepers"

[@arthos4551]

Calc 1 and 2 at Clemson usually were the first class students take where they weren't prepared for or didn't know how to study the material. I believe that's the biggest problem since most colleges try to make you take your Calculas within the first two semesters. Hell, the two part class for Cal1 seemed alot harder than the actual Cal1 due to how much information they try to slam into it.

Engineering classes are much harder though. And they don't get easier down the line unlike CS where most of the maths is frontloaded.

[@johnfedorov8089]

@@MrCmon113 I think it really depends on the university. Engineering is far more regulated in that the curriculum will be close to the same, regardless of which university you attend. However, for CS it's not nearly as regulated.. so you have universities which are EXTREMELY math / theoretical computer science heavy, and others who are more focused on the software engineering side of things, which IMO is easier than the theoretical portion.

I discovered your channel yesterday and have been binging your videos, and gah, it's just so refreshing. Right now I'm a smol rising senior in high school, in the process of applying to college, with the intent of majoring in CS (not entirely set on software engineering, but I know I'd like to do something at least programming related) I've been surrounded by so many goddamn elitists - those who say I need to get into a Stanford or a Carnegie Mellon, those who say that I need to live in Silicon Valley to make it, etc.. it's pretty frustrating.

[@zinaverde5577]

Jaylen Steward yea, i was thinking that. Georgia Tech has only like around a 32% acceptance rate. That man could work for numerous companies solely based that he got a degree from there

[@Darticus42]

Libby Madren getting a job in Silicon Valley is supposedly awesome for making connections, networking, and moving up in the corporate ladder (since so many tech companies' HQs are there). But living conditions are atrocious unless you're a multimillionaire, and you can find great opportunities and be successful elsewhere. Not to mention the rampant elitism and toxic "tech bro" culture in that area. Personally I'd avoid Silicon Valley like the plague unless you literally have no other choice And if you can get a not-quite-Ivy-League-but-close quality CS degree (e.g. Purdue, University of Illinois, Georgia Tech, MSU, University of Texas), especially if they have in-state tuition, you can get the same degree at a fraction of the cost. It's more about what and who you know, not where you studied

[@TheKurtPrice]

So I posted this above, but you may find this useful to have as a reply. I work at Amazon. Got the job right out of college. My school had a 95% acceptance rate and I have a total of 15k in loans. All of my coworkers are more than 100k in debt and we make somewhere around the same amount of money. Go to some small state school and study there. My advice would be to find a research group with one of the professors in the department. You get to learn stuff that you could only ever do in a research setting and it was the most rewarding work of my undergraduate degree. Ivy League Universities are great if you want to pay a lot of money for the same degree as everyone else. The rest is the same. The problem Jarvis had sitting in an auditorium as the professor spoke without a microphone won't happen at a state school because the classes are so small. The professors care about teaching and they want to help.

TheImpetus no doubt. But I was referring to the calculus and the assembly programming etc. it’s a lot more in depth than someone who decides to learn how to program and then picks up python. They are learning the syntax and not necessarily the ability to solve problems. I know you can learn all that without a degree also but a lot of times knowing what you don’t know is half the battle, as in knowing what questions to ask. I would say that one that is self taught should also take some college classes on programming concepts algorithms etc. but definitely not Spanish.

Fair observation but also do remember that unis teach a bunch of other courses which are sometimes unrelated to what you'll be doing.

That shit was my exact experience with Chinese at my college. Same angry teacher who would mess with students, literally 3/4s of the class dropped and about 6 students cried (most after taking the midterm). Flash forward a quarter and he got fired for bad student reviews, leaving behind only four students still studying Chinese in the whole department (myself and 3 others) and literally nobody to teach our next class. Thankfully we got a new teacher this quarter who is awesome, but it’s hilarious that this is seemingly somewhat common in language classes at schools which do not specialize in language.

This is so relieving to know that you made a few mistakes in taking certain classes and struggling with math. Man the imposter syndrome is real I got a 3.61 gpa for CS first semester and a part of me felt I should have done better. I ended up failing Calculus 1 2nd semester with a D- (bad teacher a 28 on the final 😂). I just retook it this summer for and got a C+ so I'm good. College can be a struggle but it's also a good time to explore, grow and learn from your mistakes. Update: 4/8/19 I landed a summer research position (REU) with free food, housing, and travel to work on a cyber security project in Michigan for my upcoming sophomore summer :). I'm attending my schools career fair trying to snag a Co-op for junior year. I was terrified of not finding ever finding an internship after applying to several places and getting rejected. Literally 1 month ago I had no plans for the summer and found out about this bomb opportunity through an email (applied to 15 of them and need recommendation letters for all). For everyone in CS and feeling discouraged keep your head up and be proactive in your job search. Make friends with your professors and socialize with your friends :P. Career fairs are cool too.

I keep hearing this nonsense that taking unrelated classes makes one a well-rounded person. College is not supposed to make you well rounded but rather give you a very specialized set of skills. Becoming a well-rounded person is an endeavor of a lifetime and it's something everyone should do on his or her own.

[@svideos5754]

Spectral exactly why should people pay so much when being a well rounded person is a constant life style

[@dustsky]

@@svideos5754 "a constant lifestyle" You're correct, especially in this time and age when everything changes so fast. Staying well-rounded and up-to-date is basically a full-time job with no end in sight.

[@kahnjugaming]

Dropped out of college after 2 years. Back in college 13 years later. The well-rounded argument is for students who still don't know what they want to specialize in. Having a wide range of subjects and courses available make it so that the student has a chance to discover what he really wants to pursue. Specialized degrees (the sciences) are for students who are close to a 100% sure of what they want to study and work for. However, it's also good to know that most dropouts come from these sort of programs. A good example is me. My suggestion is to never rush to college. I made it big in the business world without a degree. It's really about persistence. Although, with all the money I earned for myself, I found no inspiration to continue whatever it was I was doing. I quit the business world and pursued getting my personal life in order. After a rough journey to acceptance, compassion, forgiveness, and gratitude, I am now in an incredibly loving relationship. And then, it suddenly came to me that I wanted to go back to my studies. 13 years later, after going around the world, getting real life experience (working, earning money, relationships, connections, etc), I'm back in college - Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics. In the past, I tried accountancy and biology (but this was because my family and friends all saw me as either a Lawyer or Doctor of Medicine, not because I wanted to). If I was to go back, I'd want to pursue something I truly enjoy. Also, I enrolled to a distance learning program. I have found the self-study works better for me, and I am now enjoying my studies. They key concept here is balance. I am a student, a friend, a creator, a lover, all in one. From experience, the best way to live life is to focus on relationships. I can truly say now that I have meaningful relationships, the ones that I am worthy of. Many people will find it curious why I ended up going back to pursue a college degree. The answer is simple: "It's what I want." Also, I totally enjoy it now because I am free from the pressure of having to live up to the expectations of family and friends (peer pressure). Growing up taught me that what matters is that I have a choice. A choose authenticity, and this is why I am full of joy and passion as compared to when I was naive and confused.

[@Sage1821]

It's meant to make you a well rounded spender.

[@kahnjugaming]

@conacal rubdur I agree. They should be optional. It really depends on the availability of courses to you, since if they're limited, you'll be forced to take courses just to fill up the necessary required number of units to get the degree. So, yeah. Ideally, they're optional, but not all unis are ideal. This is why most students are forced to take a course even if they don't necessarily want to.

[@addictedOrangeJuce]

I'm doing electrical engineering and messed up my first semester too (also got a 2.9) thanks to our favourite subject chemistry. Freaked me out so much and didn't tell anybody. Worked hard and got a 3.7 next semester. I'm still trying to make up for that blow to my gpa but this video helped me realise its gonna be okay. Keep it up Jarvis!

Your course schedule was basically the same as mine for my CS degree, just organized differently since the classes I needed weren't always available. Like object oriented programming was one of the last classes I took, they only offered 1-2 classes the fall and spring semesters, and they literally filled up within hours. I also had to take a lot more fluff- art, music, history, geology, theater, film, you name it, I had to take it!

Its funny how similar college experiences can be even though your time and mine @ Tech were about 10 years apart. MaTech can dispense some tough love, and we all make stupid choices when we are early in our college careers - my vices were EMAG and Calc IV. But, as much as I smiled at the same challenges (I had C and H, so 2 of the 4 horsemen) I strikes me that your college experience did exactly what it was supposed to do - challenged you in interesting ways and kind of helped you figure out what you did and did not like. In the end you seem to have come out ahead, so good on you mate.

[@majinYaiba]

Hi Jarvis! This comment is unsolicited, thanks for listening. :) The difference between discrete math and continuous math is how space is portrayed. Pixels over a computer screen, for instance, would be a discrete space because it's not a perfectly smooth space, unlike, say, a parabola drawn from f(x) = x^2.

[@warshon123]

Now that he knows, he should treat us with a video on NP hardness, because I still don't understand that concept and I have been programming for a decade.

Found this on Wikipedia: "a class of problems that are, informally, "at least as hard as the hardest problems in NP"". Way I see it, hardness is to completeness what >= is to ==.

[@ulkord]

Or more simply: digital = discrete, analog = continuous

[@PomuLeafEveryday]

Discrete is where all the possible values are of fixed intervals, e.g. Number of Cats. You can only have integer number of cats 1, 2, 3... Each with 1 between them, you can’t have 1.1 for example. Continuous is where all the values can have an infinite number of values between them. Like how there an infinite number of values between 1 and 2 inches, like 1.11, 1.234...

It's fascinating to know how much college is different between different countries. I took Electronics and Telecomms in Aveiro university in Portugal, and god how different it was... I know the courses are different from one another but there are common subjects such as Calculus (or in my case Math Analytics, which is basically the same thing but a lot more abstract and based on demonstrating the math itself, Calculus was way more objective and easier to understand, only my course, along with Computer Engineering and the Math course itself had Math Analytics, which sucked because Computer and Electronics definitely didn't need such a deep understanding on Maths, in fact you'd end up learning less because of how difficult and boring it was). Another common course among Electronics and Computers was, of course, programming, in the case of Electronics it was more embedded systems oriented, while Computers was more software oriented. But what really caught my attention is how much "freedom" there seems to be in America for which classes to take, it seems like you have a lot of choice including languages to help your GPA. That totally doesn't work like that here, I didn't get to choose any class I took until my 5th and last year of my Masters Degree, where you could choose 3 optional classes from a list of 20-ish, to which more than 10 would never really open because there weren't enough students. This kinda sucks because unless you've made your mind really early about what subject you want to follow for a career, you end up finishing college with a "general" knowledge of some things instead of specializing yourself on a specific thing. For example my master thesis was comprised Radio Frequency, Telecomms, and Embedded Systems programming but I ended up really just scrapping the surface of each of these subjects. My thesis was very acclaimed at the time, and I never felt like I deserved such praise. I did not only took one more semester than expected to finish, but the work wasn't quite as complete as it should've been, if we take the initial goal as rule. Also if we wanted to take language courses we could, but it would be a paid course aside from your college tuition (I didn't have any scholarship, to have it here you have to be in certain deficient financial conditions which aren't most times representative of your needs vs what you can afford), and it wouldn't count for your GPA or credit count. I took the highest level of English, just to have it in my CV, since I was already pretty confident with the language, along with the first 2 levels of German, just because I was curious about the language itself, and it could also open some doors in the future Unlike you I chose not to study abroad, but I had really easy access to it if I wanted to, I just didn't felt I needed to do it in the context of my circle of acquaintances, my closest friends and girlfriend were all there, and I truly believe the value you get out of it really depends on what way you value travelling and learning. On the other hand I deeply regret not getting summer part time jobs or internships during my college journey... My family was never rich but they could always provide for me with a certain ease, and they also didn't really push me to pursue a job before ending college, as a result of that I ended up having 2 of the saddest summers of my life, my girlfriend was working, my college friends didn't live close to me and my high school friends were all doing their stuff at the time as well, I don't think I've ever felt so lonely. Since then I have a job, house of my own, and I'm married, things are taking shape, but there's still a lot to figure out. Ah well that's my life for ya. Sorry for the long post, I got a little carried away. Cheers
