/sci/ - Science & Math

The Art of Computer Programmin is by Donald Knuth, true badass - he also wrote Contcreate Mathematics and a few other fantastic computer science books.

Also, now you know komputah, ignore all other philosophers and when your friends talk about them say your favourite is John Searle - then quiz them on the Mind/Body issue..

The Art of Computer Programming
SICP
Hacker's Delight
24 Deadly Sins of Programming

In that order too. Also:
>Python
etc..

This best not speak of GEM, GEM's my niggah and gets ill rep cus of you lot.

So many conservation laws are broken when you lot speak.

Hmm, looking in The Art of Programming vol 2 atm..

given a fractional number u the conversion is:

U-1 = |_u * B_|
U-2 = |_(u * B) * B_|
U-3 = |_((u * B) * B) * B_|
etc..

Although not sure how that works with complex numbers

hmmm, you can easily get the real part by converting to base -4.
if you do that an put a space inbetween each unit you get base 2i for whatever real number.

I think if you ignore the MSDs and try and work out:
ReplaceAll[0.1415 + 0.6180 i == f/(64 i^6) + e/(32 i^5) + d/(16 i^4) + c/(8 i^3) + b/(4 i^2) + a/(2 i), i -> I]

for {a,b,c,d,e,f} where i = sqrt(-1)..

Although that's just a guess.

Fucking this. Magnets and fucking plasma!

argh, i always see these threads at about 120+ posts :(

Always want to respond to 60+ posts :(

Nevermind.

>dat Holographic Theory
Also i recommend "Everything & Nothing" which was great, two part documentary and the second part is the best.

hmm, not sure how to re-word it. I am so shit at explaining stuff, Feynman would be dissapoint.

Is there such a subject as Artificial Crypto-Intellect?

Kind of like a subconcious, a computer that can hide what it's thinking (even though still weak AI) from the user?

Gravitomagnetism ^_^

Nope.

But the rest is good. (i^i)i/10.2 (base 2i)

According to the Gelfond-Schneider theorem, any number of the form a^b is transcendental where a and b are algebraic (a ne 0, a ne 1 ) and b is not a rational number. Many trigonometric or hyperbolic functions of non-zero algebraic numbers are transcendental.

Plotting the Mandlebrot set.

Also "direct translations" of a 3D Argand Diagram to a 2D number line.

No? any mathematicians out there /sci/?

Bump =3

So /sci/ i was wondering, is there any special use for the silver ratio or that equation for the sequence at the bottom of this page:
>http://mathworld.wolfram.com/SilverRatio.html
>(n+sqrt(n^2+4))/2
?

Are all results specific special ratios?

Nice logical fallacy, bro.

Sorry, i understand that, but it's for a function i'm writting (Quater-Imaginary system) and only one x,y,z can equal n... is that (9^3)^9?

Is there a rule for figuring out all possible permutations?

For example:
>x + y - z = n, {x,y & z can only be 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} how many combinations can make n?
