well then how this works

without writing the package src; it gives me an error

¯_(ツ)_/¯

south jasper
#

with java, their are some main stream versions, most people don't install the new versions tell long in the future

java 8, java 11, java 17, and java 22, though most software out there uses java 8, so yeah java development is mainly centered around an old as f versions.

C++ is freaking evil, life is too short to manage memory, espcailly using C++.

#

maybe because i got used to my garabage collector in java, but C++ looks stupidly and unnecessarily complicated, i feel like i can easily make unsafe code in it

ocean harbor
#

she gave me 92 to this project

ocean harbor
#

somewhat reminds of java vibes

south jasper
#

nope, but i heard it is the go to language for game dev in unity

ocean harbor
#

interesting

south jasper
#

and the syntax is similer to java too

ocean harbor
#

it is cringe but im gonna learn it anyway

south jasper
#

am planning to get into mobile dev

so it is swift/kotlin/java for me, plus some other cross plateform solutions

ocean harbor
#

give a try to groovy programming language if you haven't

#

it has java too devastation

#

it seems easier tho

is it an insult dandida

#

if u want to learn mobile development

#

dont use react native

solar hawk
#

i don't

#

but ok

pulsar pagoda
#

use it after learning native api's

solar hawk
#

if i need to make a mobile app randomly for whatever reason

#

i will use react native, because i am already familiar with it.

pulsar pagoda
#

also dart is a thing

#

and flutter

solar hawk
#

I won't learn mobile development for a one-time project

#

i am already comfortable with js,react, and react native so thats wat imma stick with

#

discord's mobile app is react native

#

also look what i found dandida

#

@pulsar pagoda isnt it crazy

#

everything is already here

pulsar pagoda
#

is this for those small 8 bit processors?

solar hawk
#

yep the 6502

#

ima make the emulator

#

and then ill also know how to handle them when if i buy one

it's more that we can't really help you if you dont ask your question, "algebraic patterns" is very vague

lavish moon
#

Yep so

#

It's a very vague topic, but it relates to dot functions corresponding to grid patterns on an x and y grid

#

So like a pattern of dots that specifically create pleasing geometric patterns to the eye and have controllable functions that directly correlate to an x and y only algebraic grid

Hi all! Could you please give me a hand about the following question?

#

for a measured quantity X, the $U = \frac{Xmax - Xmin}{Xmax + Xmin}$, if U’s error is required to be less than 3.5%, how about the resolution of X? Some one said X’s resolution should be 0.25%, which means $\frac{3.5}{\sqrt{2}*10}$ where 10 is a conventional requirement. Do you know why we need $\sqrt{2}$ ?

so i looked at the math curiculum of the university i'm looking to study in and there is a course that translates to english literally as "mathematical analysis" but i can't find any info on what "mathematical analysis" is in english. Does anyone know how to figure out what that course is?

#

so that i can look for materials on it

#

and see if i like university level math

#

i can give you example problems because they made the homework public

#

i'm guessing it's real analysis but i can't be sure

#

maybe later on they delve into complex analysis, i only looked at the first homework assignment

river moon

#

If the math department of the uni offers a course called mathematical analysis, it is almost definitely real analysis. However, you could send a course description to be sure.

distant juniper
#

ok let me translate it just a sec

#

i couldn't find it on the website but here are the english books that confirm it is real analysis

#

V. Zorich, Mathematical Analysis 1, Springer Verlag, Berlin
R. G. Bartle, D. R. Sherbert, Introduction to Real Analysis, John Wiley & Sons
T. Tao, Analysis I, Hindustan Book Agency & Springer

day 7651 of telling myself ill learn java eventually

cinder zephyr
#

Noooooo there are so many better languages out there

#

C++ for example

#

Or Rust

neat lintel
#

why should i learn C++ when i can just learn C tho

cinder zephyr
#

Because they’re different languages

#

Yes C++ is built directly as an evolution of C but they’re different lanaguages

#

Especially modern C++

neat lintel
#

I wonder what could one use c++ for?

#

I mean it's a widely used language in the industry but what about math people who know c++

cinder zephyr
#

Oh my god what could they not use it for

#

So many numerical libraries have C++ implementations

#

And graphical libraries

neat lintel
#

for some reason I think python is better than c++ for that (I admit this might be wrong)

reef elm
#

I like c

#

nice and clean

reef elm
#

cpp code becomes hell

cinder zephyr
#

For example, Python is really slow

#

So if you need speed, C++ is better

#

But then if you only need to compute something a few times, speed may not matter

#

So the ease of Python (or SageMath!) will be good

neat lintel
#

where can I look at specific use cases of c++?

#

so I get a better understanding

cinder zephyr
#

I'm pretty sure the PARI computer algebra system is written in C++

mental tiger
#

this isn’t really math related

#

river moon
neat lintel
#

such that c++ would be preferrable over python for example

river moon
#

these all involve math to a certain extent

#

maybe not websites

#

unreal engine is running on C++ (and you need your vector algebra, rotations, projections, etc)

#

you can do control theory while programming your robot on C++ and solve related control problems using C++ libs which would be faster than python

#

operating systems like linux used trees and queues to manage processes

#

programming a tree in python is hell

neat lintel
#

I understand this but I was wondering how c++ could be used by pure mathematicians working in academia

#

#

There was 1 expository talk like

#

A year or so ago

#

On Brouwer’s fixed pt

deep mango
#

Im just not sure how you're figuring out what's expository. It's really really common for students to give talks on papers they're trying to understand for their research, not beginner level material but still expository

#

Like stuff that's exclusively in papers / modern

fringe summit
#

There are literally none of those

#

I’m saying there is nothing but presenting result

#

That is very surprising unless the grad students are unusually productive

What is the difference between state equation, characteristic equation and input equation exactly?

looking through my textbook those terms seem very identical

#

(Not quite mathematics related so asking here, and this is in relation to sequential circuits and flip flops)

pulsar pagoda
#

the state equation is given in terms of a sequential logic circuit

#

the characteristic equation is given en terms of the min sum of a combinatorial logic circuit

#

the input equation is how the flip flop behaves given its input to either maintain a its output or transition state

#

@neat lintel

#

it depends on the text book though

#

also state equation is kinda confusing, maybe use a state transition table

neat lintel
#

so uh

#

i dont know if thats what my book describes it as

#

it is relating to the flip flop

#

itself i guess

pulsar pagoda
#

the flipflops themselves are just a component that uses combinatorial logic

#

the only thing that changes it is the clock input

#

as a enabler

#

maybe you want to study finite state machines a little bit before trying to make whatever ur trying to make with the flip flops

#

look into mealy and moore state machines

neat lintel
#

yes

#

thats exactly what im studying lol

pulsar pagoda
#

yeah that stuff is not hard

#

which book are u using?

neat lintel
#

okay so like

pulsar pagoda
#

ahh yes

#

so im right

#

the input equation is given in terms of what u need the next state of the input to be to either maintain the current state or transition

#

but thats SO badly explained in that phrase

#

give me a sec

neat lintel
#

okay so i guess like

Yeah but it’s next to my balls and I don’t want to go pay two billion to the doctor’s office and have some dude feel me up if it’s just some stupid skin thing

#

If it’s a lump ig I don’t really have a choice which is why I’m asking how to tell if it’s a lump or not 😭 wtf is a lump

vivid halo
#

typically something hard and irregular in shape

#

in general if you feel something irregular that you haven't felt before I would see a doctor about this

#

true for lots of parts of the body

jagged forge
#

that image inspires fear in me the same way the diagram of testicular torsion does

vivid halo
#

same with possible skin cancer like if you see some kind of mole that you haven't seen before or you notice something much larger than before it's good to get that checked out and biopsied

pure ermine
#

hey are there any vcs in the server here?

jagged forge
#

i have like more than 50 moles

vivid halo
jagged forge
#

i have a mole in the center of my forehead too

vivid halo
#

I mean moles can often be benign

#

it's just something worth checking out if you get one growing quickly or one that is irregular in shape

jagged forge
#

and i have a large mole that made my doctor worry when i was like 8 lol

#

aren’t i too young to be worrying about skin cancer catscream

vivid halo
#

not necessarily!

#

some people are prone to it, in the same way that some people are just more prone to developing moles

jagged forge
#

yeah, I heard people with lots of moles are sometimes more prone to it

#

so probably should be careful

vivid halo
#

moles themselves are not necessarily cause for panic but it's something you should keep an eye on and definitely get checked out if one is growing unually quickly or is irregular in shape

#

the irregular in shape thing especially is something that is cause for concern

jagged forge
#

i see

vivid halo
#

like this kind of thing

#

uneven color is also another thing

jagged forge
#

hmm yeah i don’t have any like that

vivid halo
#

that's good!

jagged forge
#

ok actually i just counted 80 on my upper body alone

vivid halo
jagged forge
#

and i can’t see my back

vivid halo
#

oog

jagged forge
#

yeah I’m fucked

#

nor my neck or face

vivid halo
#

definitely worth keeping an eye on

#

I don't have many moles but I get kind of worried about these kinds of things when something new shows up since I've had skin cancer in the family shiver

jagged forge
#

mm

#

my mom’s sister had lung cancer and I think my mom’s parents had throat cancer

vivid halo
jagged forge
#

so uhhhhh no smoking for me lol

#

well this website attempts to classify your skin cancer risk based on how many moles are on your arm

#

their highest group is >11 moles

#

and i have >30 on my right arm

vivid halo
#

yeah definitely keep an eye on that

#

there are certain characteristics (irregular shape/irregular color/irregular growth) that usually mark the difference between benign versus malignant

#

and if you catch them early it's usually pretty easy to deal with

#

it's usually only bad if you ignore it

maybe if you take the derivatives of both and then do something

#

you could also draw a triangle 0,0, 1,0, 1,1 and then draw smaller and smaller triangles guessing inputs in between those coordinates and when the triangle gets bigger go back until you have a degenerate triangle with area 0

#

(that is a line)

#

the vertices of the triangle be constrained to be on the curves

#

maybe

#

i guess you would have to magically guess the right vertex on the curve with one vertex, maybe a quadrilateral XD

#

or just repeat the triangle thing with different vertices

#

and go up or down depending on line length

I am in a conundrum

x/2x is some value but what if we use long division to calculate it
1/2
2x|x
-(x)
--------
0

So it equals 1/2
But what if we broke 2x into x+x, since polynomial long division takes the first value to see what it must be multiplied by to get the value inside, then apply that to the whole expression outside the garage shape(I forgot which one divisor and dividend is)

If we use that on this then we get:
1
x+x|x
-(x+x)
-------
-x

We have -x now so we multiply by -1

   1 - 1

x+x|x
-(x+x)
-------
-x
-(x-x)
-------
x

We have x again, so we multiply by +1, so based on this we know that we will always fluctuate between 1 and -1

So we have a series going 1-1+1-1+1-1+1-1+1........ so does this series converge to 1/2, because we do know that 1/2 is the correct and verified value for this statement.

#

I am wondering if we can use the Cesaro Summation and partial sums to find the value

#

But this series is divergent so this is weird.

#

I tried partial sums and keep getting 1 or 0, so if we apply Cesaro Summation and get the mean, we get 1/2 again

#

COOL!

#

But the fact that this is divergent still makes me uncomfortable

#

Does this also mean that we can represent series using division

#

I guess series are an endless process, and division is repeated subtraction

#

But this series also has addition

#

So wouldn't we need repeated addition, which is multiplication

#

I guess multiplication by 1 does not matter

#

But division by 1 is useless also

#

Hmmmm

#

This is interesting

imagine you are creating an AI to estimate, within its 90% confidence interval, any number given its description (i.e. "number of people whose names start with a vowel" might output [10m, 5b], let's say)

#

this description of the AI seems to be fine on the surface

#

; however, consider how you would test the AI

#

you could give it a list of descriptions with known numbers test whether the AI gets the numbers right around 90% of the time

#

problem is, if you have a list of descriptions with known numbers that you want the AI to get right 90% of the time, the problem just became trivial

#

(just make a range that includes 90% of the items in the data set; have a program output this in response to everything)

#

what is the actual solution to this? how would you define the goal for the AI so its actually doing something useful?

it just sounds like too much effort for the first time

jagged forge

eh

the effort is not terrible

#

the worst part is just being nervous af about damaging things

particularly the cpu and socket

but it took me like an hour or two to replace the motherboard, cpu, fan, etc

im sure a pro could do it way faster

how much time did you spend looking stuff up

with regards to assembling

the only really nontrivial part was installing the cpu correctly

was it the best you could get then?

it was the best i could get besides the 3090 at the time

40 series was not out yet

and the prices were still high

i was not about to spend $2k on a gpu monkey

i already had to spent $1k on the 3080

im trying to decide which one i want

#

need to do some more looking up

#

ideally it would be nice to have good dl functionality

#

but i just want smth thatl hold for a while

#

im assuming any of the 40 series should be good

#

but at least a 4070 ti seems to be what i want

jagged forge
#

the deep learning folks seem to like having lots of vram

#

so they get 4090s

but the 4090 is so expensive monkey

i think i mainly want something thats fast so i can work locally when theres a fire at the building or the it admin quits and locks us out for 2 months

#

(both have happened)

#

how important are cooling and power supplies stuff? they seem the most arbitrary in terms of metrics

#

as in, what is "good" vs minimum

jagged forge
#

depends on the cpu/gpu

#

i have an 850W psu and i would not feel comfortable getting a 4090

#

mainly because the 14900k draws a ton of power

#

also even the best air coolers can’t cool the 14900k at full load apparently

#

so basically i just looked at what cooler gamers nexus used in their benchmarks for the 14900k and got that

#

but honestly these days amd is just better and you’d be doing yourself a favor buying an amd mobo + cpu

#

they draw less power and are neck and neck, and the 7800x3d is the best cpu for gaming right now

#

7950x3d if you want more cores for work and top gaming performance, although it’s a few percentage points worse than the 7800x3d

fervent flame
#

hmm

#

yes ive seen that the ryzens are on top of all the benchmarks ive seen

jagged forge
#

yeah amd is pretty badass man

#

also don’t trust userbenchmarks, they are trash and anti-amd opencry

fervent flame
#

lol really

jagged forge
#

yeah the guy who owns userbenchmarks.com has like, an irrational hatred of amd or something

#

they lowered the weight of multicore benchmarks to make intel on top

anyway for the psu i would just put your pc parts into a psu wattage calculator and buy based off of that

#

idk about the different ratings, i just get gold

#

because it sounds good? lol

#

#

okay ill use a calc

#

okay wait

#

the 7900 has more threads, but is worse

#

or

@neat lintel what font do you use for latex?

gusty sinew
#

Hi

vast surge
#

@gusty sinew Can you describe the open sets in the discrete metric?

gusty sinew
#

Wdym by our open sets?

vast surge
#

Well if you're going to understand compactness

#

We need an open cover

#

And for that we need open sets

gusty sinew
#

Agreed

vast surge
#

So, let's take some set $X$ and assign it the discrete metric

#

Describe the open sets in X

#

Hint: Create an epsilon-ball with epsilon=1/2

gusty sinew
#

Alr, an open set is a set with every point being an interior point, and an interior point is a point such that below a certain radius, every open ball is contained in the set. In the discrete metric, the only open sets are single points I'm guessing since below radius 1, only the point itself will be having distance smaller than 1

vast surge
#

So you've found some of them

#

It's true that singletons are all open

#

But, remember, arbitrary unions of open sets are open

gusty sinew
#

Yes

vast surge
#

So that means every set is open!

gusty sinew
#

Amazing

vast surge
#

If $X$ has the discrete metric and $E\subseteq X$, then $E$ is open in $X$.

fathom swallowBOT
#

Abelian Grapes

vast surge
#

How do we see this? We know singletons are open, and we can write $E=\bigcup_{x\in E}{x}$

fathom swallowBOT
#

Abelian Grapes

vast surge
#

Okay, now let's address compactness

#

What's the definition of compact?

gusty sinew
#

No set is compact?

vast surge
gusty sinew
vast surge
#

Right

#

So given some set $E$

gusty sinew
#

Oh, lmao single points are compact

vast surge
#

Yeah!

#

Anything else?

gusty sinew
#

Nothing comes to mind rn

vast surge
#

Okay, so here's what we'll do

gusty sinew
#

Im gonna take a guess and say finite sets are compact too?

vast surge
#

Yeah! Can you tell me why?

gusty sinew
#

Oh shit I'm stupid sorry

vast surge
#

Not stupid

gusty sinew
#

You just pick an open set that covers each point

vast surge
#

Right!

gusty sinew
#

Finite subcover obtained

vast surge
#

Yep

gusty sinew
#

Wait can't you just do this in any metric space?

vast surge
#

Yeah.

gusty sinew
#

The above argument

vast surge
#

Finite sets are always compact no matter the topology

gusty sinew
#

I just remembered that I had learnt it

vast surge
#

Okay, so my claim is, if $E\subseteq X$ is compact under the discrete metric, then $E$ is finite.

fathom swallowBOT
#

Abelian Grapes

vast surge
#

And the way to see this is to use... Let's call it a minimal open cover; that is, an open cover where removing any set makes it no longer a cover

#

Given infinite E, can we find an infinite, minimal cover for E?

gusty sinew
#

Ah

#

Thats obvious

#

Or I have a counterexample rather, the set of singletons covering the infinite set

vast surge
#

Remember, in $\mathbb{R}$, the interval $[0,1]$ is compact but has infinite cardinality
