what is the last math course youve completed? for some reason, i expect there will be some scary mathematics listed in this thread that no one has ever heard before, only taught to the most articulate and well-trained, genius minds here on xltronic... (algebra 2 for me !) |

i hardly got any further than you, i only took a semester of functions, statistics and trigonometry. |

I stopped at the first year of.. eh.. videregående.. in other words I haven't had maths since I was 16. |

The last thing I did was GCSE maths, but I've just started doing an oceanography degree, which involves a lot of maths and physics. So I am re-teaching myself both, because there is some pretty mental (to me at least) maths involved. |

Same here. I fucking hate it. |

Do something about it then. Go buy a textbook and work your way through it. :B |

Im taking some oceanography classes to fullfill my science requirements. I chose them because I didnt think there would be much math involved. but I spend 90% of my time making conversions and using formulas. As a non-science major, I was hardly pleased to learn about the Density factor and seismic reflection profiling. I am very, very bitter now. |

i'm a mathematician. well, not yet but like in a year i will be officially |

this semester i'm taking: Calculus of variatios Differential Topolgy Partial Differential Equatios I Logic II and History of mathemathics I |

I'm currently doing an Electrical and Electronic engineering degree, which has some tricky maths! Fourier, laplace, tons of calculus, trig, matrices, more letters than numbers in equations. fun fun fun..... |

What is Algebra 2? I did take a course called Linear Algebra 2. It involved transformations in and of spaces. Some of it was quite difficult and I ended up memorising the ways to solve certain problems, which I don't usually do. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Linear Algebra usually comes after Calc here, Algebra 2 would be pre-calc, or just before the class called Pre-Calc or something. Matrices; I'm surprised I got this far and i don't really know what matrices are. I think they have something to do with handling imaginary numbers or roots of polynomials or something, among other uses? Somehow I must have skirted around that area of knowledge; I always seemed to go through tests 'on the fly' as it were, figuring out what I was doing as I went along. I hate to study. |

discrete math lots of math in EE classes but that was the last "math" class ive had, after all the calcs |

linear algebra was the first thing we got at university, that and the usual integral stuff part two, so that's when i learned i |

its "maths" plural, didn't you hillbillies go to a polytechnic? =) |

yanks always say math now you mention it. I got an A at GCSE. I do some stats and physics type maths now because I do a science degree. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

I didn't quite fathom how much maths this degree entailed before I started. Still, I'm enjoying it, getting better at it all the time and I feel like I am doing something more productive with my time than getting wasted every weekend. I only got a D for GCSE maths, but I think that was down to the amount of getting hammered and/or chasing girls I was doing at the time. I'm not a thickie by a long shot. |

12th grade math, though actually I stopped going to that class three-fourths into the year and failed! So I guess I really only have 11th grade math. I never took another math course after that, though when I go back to school I guess I might have to do one or three as a formality. Didn't take one during the first two years of uni. |

second year maths in university we've done set theory, graph theory, circuit theory... nothing near as difficult as the logic we did in 1st year in logic/prolog class. the logic we did in our actual 1st year maths class was piss easy. uni maths is no laughing matter :( |

I took my last math class in the 11th grade of high school. I don't remember what we covered, all I can tell you is it involved the unit circle, Sine/cosine/tangent stuff, radians, etc. Ever since I changed schools in elementary and missed a year of math I coudln't catch up and was shit at it every year afterward. To this day I need a calculator to do even basic multiplication and division, it's pathetic. Good thing I went into communications in college. No math or science requirements at all. |

BSc in physics so we did some crazy calculus maths like z-transforms, bessel function sand all that jazz. Handy stuff. I had a eureka! moment in college when i finally saw how complex numbers (sqrt of negative numbers) manifest in the real world . Its hard to explain but one application has got to do with decaying processes in optics. Matrices were fun! Fermats last theorem is the last time i had anything to do with maths. I solved it while listening to "vic acid" one time, but i forgot to claim my prize. :P |

Diffrential Equations was the last useful math class I had. And then there's the useless tripe called Integral Calculus with complex numbers. Actualy it wasn't completely worthless... there's the cool Algernon Effect I get when looking over my old notebooks :) |
