I am a Computer Science and I do advanced math like eigendecomposition of matrices to find principal components and use generating functions to find the complexity of algorithms and Fourier transforms to make my recorded online rants less noisy

We are better than engineers so you better apologize right now

Nice bait. Engineers do that 2nd-year level stuff too.

is this a pasta that I missed?
I actually study compsci btw.
>>11778116
we had all of this covered second semester - except actual Fourier analysis (only did FFT first year).

most engineering students don't learn generating functions but just some of the results applied to hamiltonians

You *would* do generating functions in CS since they have direct relevance almost everywhere, but most programs in (undergrad) CS are horseshit.

it's more of the "CS is bad" circlejerk
People cape for their disdain for the subject by saying they're complaining about undergrad, but I think deep down they really do feel CS is window dressing for codemonkeying

oh that's really cool! can you take the eigenvalues of a mobius strip?

upboat :DDDDDDDD

Nah there’s a lot of rigorous CS out there. If you read about the use of 2-categories in CS then you know it’s legit.
The problem is that undergrads in the US don’t touch it because they want to be software kiddies
