[quote=Anonymous]When I went to college for Computer Engineering, and ground through all 3 units of Calculus, by the way the culmination was 3-d Calculus, which is really crazy hard. You just put your head down and churned out numbers and equations, until you could do them in your sleep. Honestly that taught me more about process and organization than if I did half the work and then wrote down some blah, blah, blah explanation. You have to understand the theory and application to derive the original formula, but when you get down to the brass tacks of any engineering discipline it is about the numbers, and knowing how to get to the answer. Writing a bunch of explanation about how you get the final value in the actual equation is not going to help anyone. Sometimes it just comes down to good old fashioned hard work. [/quote]
