Some kid had to integrate Tan u, after a u sub, on Webassign today. After enough prodding, he integrated it as ln | sec u |. He entered it and got it wrong because the program had the correct answer input as - ln | cos |. He got pissed off at me and told me I had no idea what I was doing Confused

Anyway, I hate that program. The idea that everyone should integrate a function the same way or simplify an answer one way is absurd.

Never had to deal with this Webassign, and from the sound of it I'm glad that I never did.

Alright, tomorrow I'll listen to Heatwave and Live and then I'll decide which of those two plus Uzed I want to order first.  It's time I get more UZ.  Then again, I want to order some of the suggestions Equalipat gave me too, but I'll have to choose wisely - I am but a poor college student, one album at a time. LOL

Just don't worry too much about Present for now, they're middle-career is a bit average.

I only have the first two Present albums.  The next I want from them is their newest, but I don't want to pay $36. Tongue

It's a nightmare. It's for teachers too lazy to make and grade their own homework problems.

By the way, Sax Ruins was pretty awesome. Different than I expected in that the sax and flute where overdubbed so it's like a chamberish element rather than a stripped down Sax/Flute and Drum tradeoff.

It's very Zorny in some places.

Not even I have their latest on CD.  It does come with a DVD though, I gather.  I need to get it.  It's a great album.

I assume the DVD is the reason it's $36, yeah.

I am pretty sure that takes several decades of math to learn. Confused

I'm hoping to write my dissertation on it.

Well this is just basic kinematics physics crap, so I'm pretty sure I actually got it wrong the few questions I couldn't get the answer to. I hate friction and I really should have paid more attention in class...Anyway, I'm out of time now, so whatever. I'm currently rocking a 70 webassign average because I overslept the deadline and missed one of the assignments (and the answer key is available immediately so I couldn't email it to her before she posted answers), but the homework average is only 20% of my grade lololololol.

Only 20%? That seems like a lot for homework. The highest you can get in the class now is a 94. That's not exactly a trivial difference.

Friction behaves pretty nicely. Especially compared to what is to come.

So you ask for Residents tracks then just leave?  I see how it is. 

Seeya!
