What, homework?
Apr. 5th, 2002 12:41 am2+ hours later, I'm 1 for 3 on the 8-problem set for FEA. Have no clue how to solve #1 or #2, #3 was fairly easy.
Update, 30min later: Having delivered V8 Splash and Ramen to sylvie, back to work.. work seems to be improving into crappy busy work.. only "improving" because I think I can actually make some progress here. Whee..
Update 2, 2am: Did #5 partway through, decided remainder of its busy work was utterly ridiculous (would probably be a page or two of simple algebra and calculus) and decided to finish it in words. ("Likewise, calculate all these other terms. Integrate each of them through this, factor out this other thing, and there you have it" was the gist of it.)
Update, 2:30am: #6 was easy! Rock on.
Update, 3:15am: #7 and #8, however, are not. I dislike this book, and I dislike how class is being taught. I should at least be able to find out how to approach these two problems, but that information doesn't seem to be readily available.
Update, 4am: Y'know, I'm really just not making any progress at all. And I've been up since 07 yesterday. So I'm declaring it bedtime.
