Calculus

Monday, 2005 April 4 2:01 AM CDT — Siloam Springs, Arkansas UNITED STATES

I fail to understand how calculus relates to computer science. If you know, let me know. I'd post my e-mail address here, but I'm afraid that spammers would find the address and send me spam.

I'm awake at 2:00 AM doing calculus homework while listening to Gavin DeGraw and Coldplay to keep me awake because I neglected to do the assignment this weekend. I guess that I have no right to complan about the hour, but I will complain about having to take the class in general. I have no problem with the professor, Dr. Frank Blume. He's a true gentlemen. He's offered to help me. However, I'm afraid that I'm beyond help. I lost track of everything when we got into factorials! Most engineering students have to take four semesters of calculus, but me, being a computer science student, only have to take two (Haleluja!). If I can just hold onto whatever there is for the next few weeks and pass the final with devine intervention, I can proceed without the right to complain about any other course with the possible exception of physics. God does grant us the devine gift of knowledge, so I see no reason why he wouldn't bestow it upon who needs it, but Dr. Blume would say something around the lines, “I have no problem with students asking for knowledge, just not right before my tests.”
