When did you decide you wanted to stick with CS Posted: 12 Jan 2018 02:23 AM PST I'm about to take my second course in CS in the upcoming spring semester and I've had second thoughts a couple time during the intro class. I liked doing the projects but that's mostly because of the satisfaction of finishing them. I'm still unsure about doing computer science but at the same time I can't really see myself doing anything else for a future career. So when did everyone on this subreddit realize that they loved CS and wanted to pursue a career in it? submitted by /u/mircatmanner [link] [comments]

Finite of Sense and Infinite of Thought: A History of Computation, Logic and Algebra, Part II Posted: 12 Jan 2018 01:49 AM PST submitted by /u/pron98 [link] [comments]

Help me solving a discrete math problem? Posted: 12 Jan 2018 03:04 AM PST So, here it is How many such integer sequences (aₖ) are there that 0 ≤ a1 ≤ a2 ≤ ... ≤ aₙ ≤ n? It's pretty basic combinatorics. I know the answer, it's C(2n, n) and I can see that solving this problem is a matter of a simple logical conclusion and a even simpler calculation but I just don't understand what I'm being asked exactly. Thanks in advance submitted by /u/Minusguy [link] [comments]

Software engineering vs. cybersecurity Posted: 11 Jan 2018 08:43 AM PST Title says most of it; I'm a freshman in college wondering what I want to focus on career-wise. I understand cybersecurity isn't like the movies where you're furiously typing as a "cyber warrior," but I've still considered that field. All in all, what kind of people should do software engineering, and what kind of people should do cybersecurity? Thanks guys! submitted by /u/Sack_of_Fuzzy_Dice [link] [comments]

Physical encodings - what are they intended to overcome exactly? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 11:08 AM PST What problems are physical encodings (such as the Manchester encoding) intended to overcome? All of the information I read so far gives me ElecEng vibe more or less and I need someone to explain this to me(almost no relevant knowledge of this type of thing). submitted by /u/ElliotSpelledBackwar [link] [comments]
