Maxwell equations?
J is current
A is the electric field
and
B is the magnetic field

You're welcome. I'll upload some more later.

Also, when I say
>formulae with the most [small number to the big number]

I mean;
functions of the form
>{some small number, a} ^ (some larger number, a)
will by larger in magnitude (beyond a set critical point, where a = b) than those of the form
>(some larger number,b ^ {some smaller number, a}

Essentially, exponentials grow faster than polynomials. Put your biggest numbers in your exponents not you bases to get the (asymptotically) larger functions.
Like how in primary school you might be given a string of naturals to permute into the largest natural you could and you always put the 9s first, then the 8s, then the 7s, because the places on left of the number (the millions and billions) mean more than the places to the right (the ones and tens and, God-forbid, the decimals!)

In return for my rambling, the best way to learn mathematics.

Co-op or summer internship? I already intend on doing an internship each summer of my undergrad; will a co-op during the semesters be worth the extra work?

Just for specifics, I'll be applying as a chemical engineer to a decent college/university, and I plan to apply to a more prestigious/rigorous grad school.

So, I'm playing about in Mathematica.
I evaluate "Plot[ Mod[n^n, 1/n], {n, -2, 2}]", and I don't see anything on the negative side. On Wolfram Alpha, the same input has all these complex outputs for negative n.
Why doesn't mine? Even something as simple as Sqrt[n] has nothing appear on the negative side. What am I doing wrong?

What will be common technology in 100 years?
