For once, OP was not a faggot

>>10466543
show me one chad statistician. as far as i can tell they're all basically indistinguishable from code monkeys

>>10466566

>>10466579
hmmm is that like an "alternative" chad? like hipster boomer ironic chad, with the toe shoes?

>>10466566
Lmao, virgin smalldick lowT soiboi spotted.

Statisticans are Chads, they are the ones who bully little sissy mathematician skinny nerds.

>>10466543
Would you consider pic related a mathematician or statistician? Persi Diaconis

>>10466797
>Lmao, virgin smalldick lowT soiboi spotted.
who, me or Villani?

>>10466831
Villani probably gets more ass than a toilet seat

CS is basically math++, and a CS graduate is considered élite, capable of mastering in 1 year what math graduates do in 2 years. Deal with it!
World's élite universities (e.g. MIT, Princeton) will tell you right away that as their CS student you are considered the best group they have and that math students go slower than you, and increase your load to crazy levels As a CS student, you are expected to master (continuous) calculus, discrete calculus (discrete math proofs, hypercubes for parallel algorithms), optimization (machine/deep learning, compilers), category theory (functional programming), logic (up to automated proofs, i.e. including set theory), differential equations, topology (computational geometry, distributed algorithms), probability and statistics (reinforcement learning, queueing), number theory (cryptography), graph theory (almost everywhere)... There is no functional analysis needed yet, but it's heavily used for PhD degrees anyway. You need to know all this down to the level of proving theorems if you want to achieve anything in CS While pure math & physics progress slowed down, the advances in CS are fast and accelerating. CS is the major of future. Math jobs are shrinking; CS jobs will grow even more than today. The AI revolution is here, from Google search to Uber pool to auto correct to recommendation engines, mathematicians are being left in the dust by algorithms from the 90's and just sheer brute force.

No you're not.

Welcome newfriend

Im a cs student iggern

>>10466978
retarded nigger faggot

>>10466981
>t. butthurt he can't kode

>>10466566
Who was that guy again? I believe he was once a french minister?

up

>>10467004
He was, he also is a Fields medalist.

Hell yes my dude. Contributing OC

I love stats since it connects the proof based and empirical sciences, but in reality SpEd/inner city math teacher is best case scenario.

Lmao

fuck this smug bitch
I can't believe you can make so much money off barley knowing hello world.

>>10466566
... look, i know we don't like computer scientists, but that comparison might be a little harsh on them.

>>10466819
neither. he's a mathemagician and has transcended both.

>>10470207

statisticians are not mathematicians. statistics has nothing to do with mathematics.

>>10466857
this thought bothers me.

>>10466543
I am a electrical engineering student. I have some genuine interest in statistics and probability theory. Should I study statistics on top of EE? Would it be worth it?

>>10471093

most statisticians do not know probability theory and measure theory

>>10470788
>statistics has nothing to do with mathematics.
t. retarded undergrad

>>10467980
>pic
Funny cause its true

>>10471096
t. is not stats major

>>10466543
based

>>10472565
It really depends on how you categorize "statistician".

Those who have a PhD and published papers dealing with the mathematical sides of statistics generally know their shit. Those who have only a master's, bachelors, or a minor? They wouldn't even know what the mathematical definition of a "measure" is.

>>10472565
Stats majors are not statisticians.
Statistician, Mathematician and Computer Scientist are all jobs that require PhDs.
