Anyone bere knows sites to leaen biology-chemistry math-calculus end exercise?
This is my last year of school, and i am having lots of troubles because i found some gaps in my instruction, due to the fact that i didn't get anything to study from.I've always been very good in scientific subjects but this year i'm shitting bricks, sorry for any grammar mistakes, but i'm terrified(and foreign).
Please, i need help.
Guys those grammar mistakes are phone mistakes, sorry again.
It's not help with homeworks, i need a solid reference to improve my math skills

wut?

has a bunch of intro level material
if you are looking specifically for problems to work on, just go to bookzz.org and download textbooks for free
ANY GENIUS HERE?
we have n x m grid and a x b rectangles
how to determine if we're able to cover whole grid with these rectangles, and if not what is the biggest ammount of rectangles which would fit?
algorithm/code would be very helpful?
thanks
halp me pls
all rectangles are the same size
I believe that this is the criteria for tiling the whole grid, but correct me if I'm wrong.
Each of a and b must divide either n or m (they may divide the same number or different numbers). If they divide the same number, say a | n and b | n, then you must have m = ax + by for some non negative integers x,y.
Engineer here (sorry).

I've decided to teach myself calculus, I have a fairly solid knowledge of basic maths (did my A level last year) but I'm not sure if the book I'm using is particularly well written. I'm struggling to get my head around the example in pic related, any help would be appreciated
He's just giving you an example of how the limit can be visualized and rationalized. If you were to have a function y = x/sin(x), at x=0 the function is not defined (because we cannot divide by zero). Knowing this we have to use something called a limit. It just shows as a value approaches a point, the function in question converges to another point.
If you draw the graph you can see that it looks normal (it will even look like it passes through (0,1) ), but we still cannot define it for x=0. Graph the function and it might make more sense.
tl;dr - The picture is just giving an example of a limit, which you can think of as a fancy way of giving undefined points of a function legitimate values.

I know this is a dumb question and I'm pretty sure the answer is no but I need confirmation quickly.
Can a qubit in a quantum computer be an atom?
Do quantum computer "harness the power of molecules"? whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean.
No to both
I'm a fan of science fiction shows, but they often stretch the bounds of my suspension of disbelief. I also hate when they use meaningless strings of scientific words to explain away any plot holes.
>>Pic related
Are there any SciFi shows that are more scientifically accurate?
Best I know of is Battlestar. The spaceships actually act like they're in space when they're fighting, instead of behaving like boats on the ocean. Plus they use good old guns and nukes instead of photon torpedoes.

Hey /sci/, sorry to shit up your board with this, but this is what an autist has been thinking:
If intelligence emerges from a network of more elementary entities, can intelligence emerge from a network of sentient beings acting as elementary entities?
Two things I want to think about:
1. If we had 100 billion people arranged in such a way that they each acted as a single neuron, networked exactly the way the neurons in our brains are, could that entire grouping of people as one entity be sentient?
2. Could intelligence of varying levels emerge from people networked in constantly changing ways of communication? (I am not bound to talk to certain people and to recieve speech from certain people, they are constantly changing)
Could our world seen as one entity exhibit intelligence?
I know this whole buzz on intelligence in the media is annoying as fuck, so I don't blame you if this post triggers you

1. Society is an example of this. Each person does their own thing and has their own life. But as a whole society has an overall opinion, flow and effect on each other, other societies and cultures, and on the world. The internet has really helped this along too.
2. Not sure what you mean by this.
>Could our world seen as one entity exhibit intelligence?
All for one and one for all. While we are all single beings we are all of the same race and a single persons achievement effects the rest of humanity.

>2. Not sure what you mean by this.
As far as I naively know, the network in our brain is mostly static - neurons do not add new connections and cut off old ones, other than during development and through trauma of course, but it's mostly static. The communication between persons is extremely dynamic. Basically, in the analogy of people to neurons, I was thinking that that was a discrepency that argued against the analogy, and wondered if that would prevent a network of humans to be similar to a network of neurons.
>>7777916
neurons do write and re-write connections constantly and that's why you forget things, or never learn them. Brains that are better at making and maintaining connections are the ones we call "smart people". Such an immense amount of connections are made that they're only usually noticeable after development or trauma
On the other hand, human activity is neurotic and repetitive enough that these kinds of "society animals" do exist. It would be a psychology problem though, like how you can love vehicles when you're a child, and later on lose the interest and like technology instead, but the entire time it was "you"
Being that that animal is just the neighborhood, and you're witnessing it all happening right now anyway.
That makes me think I'm just one of the cells in my body, witnessing all this happening, and something made me think I was important enough to be the whole body. Well I'll take right now as my chance to say it, sorry guys. We're all in this together, just cause I'm the one who sees doesn't mean I'm the only one.
Can you solve this code or give information about it?

Thanks you.

There is no pattern to be had from a finite sequence.

>"There are some superb papers written that in fact discount the idea that we should ever use j on the grounds that it conceals some structure that we could explain by another means"
Well, /sci/? Is there a better mathematical system out there that solves the same problems imaginary numbers do without resorting to imaginary numbers?

Hey /sci/ can someone who knows a lot about physics and science please explain to me what parallel universes and multi verses are? How do they work and have they been proven?

If space is quantized.
is it autistic notation to list the set of integers from 1 to k as Z+n[1,k] or will people accept t?
it really pisses me off when people use notation like {1,2,...,k}.
those "..."s have no place in a mathematics text you dick
>>7776986
just do
[eqn]
\bigcup\limits_{i = 1}^{k} \{i\}
[/eqn]
I've seen [n] denote the integers 1 through n in combinatorics
>>7776986
How about [math] {\mathbb{N}_{ \leqslant k}} [/math]
