hey! fourier as in FFT??

2018-12-31 22:10:01 UTC  

yup

2018-12-31 22:10:24 UTC  

what do you use fourier for?

2018-12-31 22:11:43 UTC  

Similar to Taylor series in that it can approximate any function as a sum of easy to integrate/differentiate functions

2018-12-31 22:12:27 UTC  

. . . I just googled it. . . now I'm getting concerned because it looks super complicated

2018-12-31 22:12:49 UTC  

Think of it as a processing shortcut

2018-12-31 22:12:59 UTC  

Fourier transform is not precalc.

2018-12-31 22:13:47 UTC  

but I will be taking Calculus and physics for engineering students, and the formula is similar to the problems in those classes

2018-12-31 22:14:01 UTC  

Nope, but sometimes hints of why you're learning disjointed things helps motivate learning

2018-12-31 22:14:08 UTC  

Down the road you'll take diff eq.

2018-12-31 22:15:34 UTC  

differ equation?

2018-12-31 22:15:50 UTC  

Differential equations.

2018-12-31 22:15:59 UTC  

*oh* that

2018-12-31 22:16:17 UTC  

see, I took pre-calc I my first semester in college

2018-12-31 22:16:48 UTC  

now I'm taking pre-calc II in my 6th semester (starting next month)

2018-12-31 22:17:05 UTC  

I hate it when i don't get the whole picture

2018-12-31 22:17:16 UTC  

I understand i won't understand the whole picture from the get go

2018-12-31 22:17:21 UTC  

but don't fucking mr miyagi me

2018-12-31 22:17:53 UTC  

Like i remember asking a question in an early math class

2018-12-31 22:17:59 UTC  

like about division or some shit

2018-12-31 22:18:05 UTC  

and the answer i got back was "you can't do that"

2018-12-31 22:18:11 UTC  

which was a lie

2018-12-31 22:18:44 UTC  

oof this is why math teachers need to be math majors instead of education majors

2018-12-31 22:19:39 UTC  

in my school district, math teachers didn't have to be math majors

2018-12-31 22:19:48 UTC  

the most math they had to take was college alegbra

2018-12-31 22:19:50 UTC  

Can't believe i stayed up til 6 am talking about politics <:haggord:435674100468285440>

2018-12-31 22:20:15 UTC  

Hero you fell asleep right

2018-12-31 22:20:27 UTC  

but it was fun to listen to 😄

2018-12-31 22:20:41 UTC  

I think I did on 2 people earlier this morning but I have no idea

2018-12-31 22:20:53 UTC  

*remember

2018-12-31 22:21:12 UTC  

Did you watch any of those "JEWrassic LIARS" videos with us lol

2018-12-31 22:21:34 UTC  

Yeah that was me and some other guy

2018-12-31 22:21:35 UTC  

not really I had to keep pausing the videos to listen to you guys

2018-12-31 22:21:45 UTC  

Rip

2018-12-31 22:21:59 UTC  

but I'll pull them up in a few hours when I'm done freaking out about pre-calc
