----------------------------------- jhooper3581 Fri Aug 28, 2009 7:18 am Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- Hello good Canadians, I am from United States. My interests goes into fields of mathematics, physics, computer science, computers & electronics, music and art, so you can pretty much call me a polymath. I really like computer science, and I see that there's a lot of programming going on around here. I am learning other computer science topics too (artificial intelligence, etc.). I hope you guys will talk about other computer science topics, too. Well, let's have some fun! jhooper3581 ----------------------------------- A.J Fri Aug 28, 2009 8:43 am RE:Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- On Behalf of compsci.ca, welcome, eh =) ----------------------------------- jhooper3581 Fri Aug 28, 2009 8:48 am ----------------------------------- Thanks for the welcome! :D ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Fri Aug 28, 2009 9:41 am Re: Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- Welcome jhooper3581! I really like computer science, and I see that there's a lot of programming going on around here. I am learning other computer science topics too (artificial intelligence, etc.). I hope you guys will talk about other computer science topics, too. I think many members here share your sentiment. Feel free to start up a discussion on any computer science topic that interests you, and I'm sure at least a few people will join in. :) ----------------------------------- jhooper3581 Fri Aug 28, 2009 7:13 pm ----------------------------------- Okay. Thanks for the reply! 8-) ----------------------------------- Analysis Mode Sat Aug 29, 2009 12:41 am Re: Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- Well, I guess the appropriate thing to say is, "Welcome", but I couldn't help but notice that you called yourself a polymath. I was under the impression that people don't usually call themselves that, but I guess it's OK, even Napoleon crowned himself the king of France. ----------------------------------- jhooper3581 Sat Aug 29, 2009 3:28 am ----------------------------------- Well, I ranked top 500000 physicist in the world. I didn't make it to [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Physics_Olympiad]IPhO, but I still pwn. ----------------------------------- bbi5291 Sat Aug 29, 2009 10:18 am Re: Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- Oh come on Analysis Mode, there's no need to be that vitriolic. Anyway, I think the definitive test of whether or not you can pwn is whether or not you can browse the penchant for random facts. Nice to meet you. ----------------------------------- saltpro15 Sat Aug 29, 2009 10:24 am RE:Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- That is a hell of a forum...:shock: btw, Hello jhooper3581, nice to meet you. I do math and CS, though I have a growing interest in biology. ----------------------------------- bbi5291 Sat Aug 29, 2009 10:30 am Re: Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- Yep. It's not for the faint of heart. (By the way, according to my own definition, I most certainly do not pwn.) ----------------------------------- andrew. Sat Aug 29, 2009 10:32 am RE:Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- Holy crap! That is an intense forum. I'm never going back there. ----------------------------------- endless Sat Aug 29, 2009 10:56 am RE:Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- yum, tensor notation. ----------------------------------- Shah-Cuber Sat Aug 29, 2009 11:12 am Re: Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- I've seen worse ... Physicist eh? I also enjoy Physics and hope to study it in my post-high school years (High-Five) :) Oh yea, Welcome to Compsci! I enjoy several subjects: Physics Math Chemistry Biology CS/AI Engineering/Robotics Geography History Chess/SpeedCubing Memorizing stuff Random Facts ... This could go on for a while, so i'll just stop =P p.s: bbi5291 certainly does pwn, his just modest >.> @ endless: Yes, It's delicious :) ----------------------------------- bbi5291 Sat Aug 29, 2009 11:22 am Re: Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- Oddly enough, Shah-Cuber is the only coder I know who's interested in chemistry (I myself don't count). Those who are interested in chem, generally aren't very, though. ----------------------------------- Analysis Mode Sat Aug 29, 2009 12:36 pm Re: Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- I've seen worse ...

I've been watching reach for the top for years now, sad thing is - our school doesn't have the program >.> Crappiest school ever :( ----------------------------------- Analysis Mode Sat Aug 29, 2009 2:46 pm RE:Computer science is great! ----------------------------------- In that case, you should find a teacher who's interested and start up a club.
