    what is your worst subject at uni?

    Well computer scientists should'nt have to do electrical engineering, but software engineers sure as hell should. Check out ieaust.org, software engineering is most definately a devision of electrical engineering. For me, i cant decide whether to keep doing software(which i love) or to change...

    Fulladder

    no problem hehe After spending all of last semester studying 101 fun things you can do with various flip flops (also known as elec1101) im full of this sort of handy information. Hmm ive seen your sig nefore on a www.thinkgeek.com t-shirt, cept it reads there are 10 kinds of people in the...

    Fulladder

    Full Adder To understand the full adder, you have to understand a half adder See the half adder allows one to add two one bit numbers. Thus you can do 0+0=0 1+0=1 0+1=1 1+1=? - This is the important line, in the decimal number system 1+1=2. However in binary 2 is 10 ... thats two...

    uni scenario

    Hey Man In USYD, all telco , software, comp and electrical engineering have the same first year.. But im pretty sure electrical engineering has a much lower UAI (i havent checked.) Maybe if combined elec/comm has a lower uai go for that and then at the end of first year if you get probably...

    Workload at Uni

    Hmm yeah its good I like usyd, nice atmosphere.. dont know how much easier it would be really depends on you a lot i think, nsw seems much more focussed on maths, theoritacs of software whereas sydney seems focussed on team based working and writing good (although not complicated code). So. if...

    Which Uni for computer system engineer?

    Hey USYD's not bad Hmm i dont know what it is with NSW ppl dissing usyd for computer/software engineering.. although ill agree that USYD has a different focus ... at least in first year. NSW seems to be focussing a lot on theoretical and mathamatical grounds of computer science whereas USYD...

    better than school?

    Uni isnt that bad But i wont say its better than school, at least not yet. For me uni is pretty similar to school, since i went to a quite relaxed public school, uni is more of the same just BIGGER. As for each hour at uni being one hour at home... thats pretty much bull.. depending on your...

    Workload at Uni

    Heya I do software engineering at usyd, and well i have 25 contact hours which is 10 hours lectures and 15 hours tutorials, pracs and other stuff. Theoretically for each hour at uni you should spend 1 at home .. but thats not really very accurate. Ive been finding that since i only spend 10...

    Syd Uni summer school

    Ey i went to that I thought it was ok, a bit too much on the programming and not enough on the social side, but otherwise was a pleasant way to spend a week. I did programming for the search engine but they help you a lot.

    Learning Algorithms

    For loops-aah For loops are in the syllabys???.. grrr my teacher told me not to use em, so i didnt when i did the exam last year. its not the biggest deal in the world since FOR loops in psuedocode are just an abrieviated form of the WHILE loop. As for learning algorithms, start off by NOT...

    Which elective? Evolution vs View of Hardware SMACKDOWN!!!!!!

    An opinion Heya .. Im doing Software Engineering at Usyd, and i did the hardware topic last year and i have to say that if you are planning on doing any sort of electrical engineering degree (telecom, elec, computer, software or ecommerce) that the benefit of learning some basic boolean...

    Programs which may assist you in better understanding for your Option Topic

    Circuit Simulator http://www.tt.rim.or.jp/~kazz/simcir/ Heres another quite simple to use but very nice circuit simulator, that i used during the hsc to help understand flip flops,logic gates, half and full adders and basicly all the circuits you have to know ... the important thing to do here...

    Should i get a tutor?

    I got maths tutoring I think getting a tutor for maths was the best decision i ever made. Basicly, i hadd'nt really done any maths through years 1->10 and although i really made an effort in year 11, i still struggled heaps ... my average mark for 3u math in year 11 would have been about 60% ...

    What Did U Think ??

    Well Well lets put it this way, ive seen last years exam .. this was harder i didnt take an exam home with me, but geezus, put it this way, the multiple choice was much harder, and more ambiguos, Q21 wasnt so bad, but there were at least 3 multipage algorithms in the exam that students had...

    Heinmann Logic Gate diagram, possible error?

    THanks blah Hey blah, thanks a lot as to that question, ive looked at it, and the "sample" answer seems a bit dodgy, as in C=0 D=0 should simply remember the last state the flip flop was in, so any answer where q is different to q' should be correct C=1 D=1 should also be an illegal state...
