I'm enjoying rehabing my math education. I finally got a chance to see Ron Howard's "A Beautiful Mind" for the first time and am blown away.

Any of you guys take math in school and still futz around?

Only math I know is Dollars and cents.

subVERSION · 10-16-2005, 10:42 PM

Check out Pi, buddy.

And people who "do math" are like people who "do computers". They don't often futz around.

If you liked that "math movie" may I recommend the movie "PI" - it's modern, but in B/W - fantastic

TheMob · 10-16-2005, 10:47 PM

That was a pretty good film.

Math is a great tool. I am working a lot with math right in connection with SixSigma quality initiatives and other statistics calculations. Unfortunately I am not very good at it and most of the math and what not is done by somebody else. My brain is just not a math brain, but I won?t give up.

Great stuff? too bad they didn?t teach us any of this stuff back in high school.

without knowing math i would end up nowhere...

abyss_al · 10-17-2005, 02:59 AM

i used to love math.... was into architecture... went through physics, calculus, etc... then lost interest

High Quality · 10-17-2005, 03:07 AM

Heh, I have a degree in semiconductor physics & EE.

So I know some math.

Just so everyone knows - the "math" in "A beautiful mind", "Pi" and that movie with matt damon whatever that was, was all bullshit 3rd semester calculus - Triple integrals and differental equations.

But oh well, fun movies to watch!
