It really seems strange to me that in America it appears normal not to do any calculus until Uni, since in Australia basic calculus is taught in schools (in my state, it is taught in the main maths class that over half of all students takes), and is used in physics and engineering courses from the start of first year. Given how much my first year physics courses relied on calculus, the system really seems odd.
If you read the comments on the linked feature request, you would see that according to mba, one of the leading programmers on the project, that it would take a lot of work to make this work properly, because the different views are mutually exclusive. However, once it is introduced, it may be possible to use multiple views simultaneously, and also to include a draft or normal view.
There is also a program called Octave, which appears to be a MATLAB clone. I have never used this, but some old (2007) lab documents in the physics department at my uni refer to it.
Wasn't there some girl in Devon last week who had a party worse than this (and Corey Delaney's was much larger). Still, she may manage to get enough from the media to pay for the damage and make a decent profit if Corey is anything to go by.
I have heard stories like this before, but 50 people causing that much damage in one night is somewhat amazing.
I've heard that some US troop in Afghanistan use real mules for transport on patrol, since they can cover the terrain better than vehicles can but don't provide warning of your approach like helicopters do (and you can see things more easily from the ground).
