well my CS program is in the Engineering school so I've done plenty of EE. so I'm very familar with both also and I still say it depends. I know plenty of people who were EE with CS concentration and had to go to straight EE cause they couldn't handle CS. once again depends on the program. our CS is fairly tough.
I think this is close. the problem with the order with the CS and Engr is that some CS programs are shitty and not that difficult and some are very hard and can be more difficult than engineering.
Philosophy at the undergrad level is nothing to really brag about. At higher levels however yes its freakin sick. lets try this for order
CS->ENGR->Math->IT->Buisness->horseshit anyway
this is quite funny, I'm refering to your analogy of the engineering students falling to ie then to Business then further down. I see this happen all the time in my Engineering school. you couldn't have hit that one more on the head.
Well good for you , what I'm saying is if you want to get a respectable CS degree then you must understand logs. that's your own choice if you'd rather bypass the degree. It also depends on what type of work your doing. there are alot of real world jobs that use heavy algorithms and beleive me I know there are plenty that don't, I used to work for one
I agree, slide rules are very important. People would understand Logs a hell of alot better if the slide rule was still used instead of a calculator which prevents you from learning the hard way.
as far as using logs well good luck making it through a Computer Science degree without the knowledge of logarithms.
