  1. yeah. i speed read most of time. like dave said. I just skim the page for key words. the characters name. what is he doing rite now. emotions and metaphors and all those stuff dont interest me. that way. i can read a standard page in about 10 sec.
  2. steals from the rich and gives to the poor. etc etc
  3. India contributed a lot to modern mathematics, most people fail to realise that. including the introduction of 0, negative numbers, as well as that they were one of the first mathematicians to recognise the existance of square roots of negative numbers. Arab mathematicians did a lot of mathematics as well. One of the most famous indian mathematicians was probably Ramanujan. I read his biography "The man who knew Infinity". He was almost completely self taught. He came to England as he sent a letter to "Hardy" with a few examples of his work. He was a fellow of the Royal Society "Littlewood was asked to help teach Ramanujan rigorous mathematical methods. However he said ([31]):- ... that it was extremely difficult because every time some matter, which it was thought that Ramanujan needed to know, was mentioned, Ramanujan's response was an avalanche of original ideas which made it almost impossible for Littlewood to persist in his original intention. "Ramanujan had an intimate familiarity with numbers, and excelled especially in number theory and modular function theory. His familiarity with numbers were demonstrated by the following incident. During an illness in England, Hardy visited Ramanujan in the hospital. When Hardy remarked that he had taken taxi number 1729, a singularly unexceptional number, Ramanujan immediately responded that this number was actually quite remarkable: it is the smallest integer that can be represented in two ways by the sum of two cubes" His notebooks are really famous. there are quite a lot of entries for ramanujan in mathsworld.

  4. doom3 beta is out. dont know if its legal.
  5. Notice , that in the status next to each torrent. it says stopped. Otherwise i download at roughly 50-65KB/s
  6. wwhy would do u wanna do that? its not gonna improve quality or anything
  7. are u looking for datasets?
  8. bloodhound

    Sets?

    what are u trying to do with it anyway?
  9. bloody yanks hehe
  10. once we get 5 pple . its will be 200MB. and that just easily evaporate. listening to internet radio. or streaming video. using ftp. etc
  11. bloodhound

    Sets?

    I am still confused by the meaning of ordered pair (a,b)
  12. yeah. got no idea what XOR is. heard it when my fren was talking electronics. some kind of logic gate i suppose
  13. it sucks. the main of getting broadband is the only on, download as much as you want thingy. now its gonna be like dial up. having to worry about how much time you spend doing stuff.
  14. no. apparently BT have as well. read some stuff along with NTL. the thing is there are gonna be five of us in our house. and that makes it only 200MB per person per day. and that absolutely nothing!!!!!!
  15. yeah. i just moved into my new flat in nottingham. gonna have to try to find another isp. u know any which done have caps?
  16. I just found out that NTL (my ISP) sneekely introduced bandwith cap of 1Gig/day. which most customers dont know about. anyway , heres a scrrenshot of my torrent client. no wonder my internet is so slow now
  17. most of the video compression works by using key frames. they are like snapshots. and the video is compressed by analysing the difference between those keyframes
  18. anything can be shown by changing the definition of something. using the normal definition of a limit 0,0,0,0,0,0...... does have the limit 0. I dont see what ur point is.. What exactly are you trying to show us in this thread? that all the work done by mathematicians since ages ago are flawed?
  19. yeah. i ve heard fof scissorhands. had a glance at it once. then changed channels
  20. bloodhound

    Sets?

    maybe he has discovered some interesting property about [math]\mathbb{C}[/math]\{4} that noone knows about
  21. bloodhound

    Sets?

    unless , its his new twisted way of writing the set {4}
  22. bloodhound

    Sets?

    im completely baffled as well. can u explain what u meant by that Freeman
  23. yeah , man she was fit AS
  24. oh well. sorry. the threads to long for anyone to properly read. Maybe you can put up a summary of key points at the beginning?
