A2, PS4
I got problem set #3 back and was happy to see that for the first time there wasn't a single correction; only a "Good!". Usually I feel like I always mess up one tiny detail that seems insignificant at the time but really isn't. I was worried that maybe I wouldn't get full marks because I complicated things by creating a formula for n + 1 in terms of n and n - 1 and then using the method with the roots to create a closed form. Well, I know it wasn't necessary for that problem, I really liked the method and thought my way of solving it was better than just unwinding. Needless to say I was relieved to get my problem set back.
Problem set 4 was a bit too rushed because I have so much other work (thank god I dropped from mat237 to 235 or else I don't know what I'd do)... I don't think I spent enough time on it at all. Ah well.
So far I only have rough solutions for A2. And I always find presenting a solution is harder than actually finding one so I'm worried I won't have enough time to finish it tonight (and here I am reading wikipedia and updating my slog) so I should probably stop procrastinating but after sitting through a four hour long mat235 prep session I feel like I need a break...
I sense another night without sleep...
Work for this week:
- A2 (due Monday) - DONE
- CSC207 E3 (due Monday) - DONE
- CSC207 Midterm (Wednesday)
- MAT235 Term Test #1 (Thursday)
- CSC207 Project Phase II (Friday)
edit: as of 8:09 Monday, A2 is done! Probably half of it doesn't make sense as it was mostly done between the hours of 3 and 6 a.m. but I've never been a perfectionist...
On another note, next year UofT is changing their schedule so there will be a study period before the fall semester's exams and a break during the fall semester itself... which means next year around this time I may not be so sleep deprived.
I wonder if this is in response to the rumour that UofT has the highest suicide rate among Canadian universities...

Representing solution is always hard.
Why don't they make it this year? This year's exams are like one after the other.
I never know that UofT has the highest suicide rates O__o Though it's not that surprising...
I'm not quite sure if it's actually true or just a rumor going around but it wouldn't surprise me either.
And apparently they took like eight years to decide we should be more in line with Canadian universities, so I'm just grateful they're changing things around when we're still here.
