That is actually what I was expecting in this case, but it is not how it is at this school. All of the professors have been excellent at teaching the material (small school, so no TA's teaching), and the tests have all been excellent.
In almost every case, you have to deminstrate the ability to do what was taught. Tests also will differ between class periods, years, and even re-takes. Like in my Assembly class, we were required to write a Tic-Tac-Toe game that would play against the user. The previous semester did connect 4, the other class did something else.
The only people who do well at Wentworth are those who are willing to learn the material, and apply it during the exams.
I would have to agree with this for the most part, but it is HIGHLY dependant on schools.
I am currently a Junior at Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston, and I feel it is the exact opposite. The school has a 'Accept everyone, graduate no-one' type mantra. My classmates are extremely good at what they are doing by now, and all the weak ones have been weeded out.
My BCOS class started out as a 200+ person class, now it is down below 50. The school does its best (through a hard course schedule) to get rid of those who are not up to the challenge.
I have the exact same memory key, and LOVE it. The only problem i found was that the wallet holder flexes WAY too much, and mine ended up snapping in my wallet. Luckily the key didnt break/get harmed.
PQI said they couldn't replace the holder, so im stuck w/o one.
Just a bigger FYI: basically ALL of the ATI chipset cards come out of the same plant, owned, operated, and maintained by TUL. Sapphire is one of the brands that owns a seperate plant.
ATI used Sapphire on ONE line of the cards, the early 9800's, and everything afterthat was made by TUL.
TUL recently bought the manufacturer PowerColor, and sells prime cards under the PowerColor name (with the rest of the first choice cards going to ATI). Asus, Abit, etc, are middle tier, and Connect 3d, Visontek and Diamond are the worst of the cards.
Sapphire is either hit or miss with their cards, due to the seperate manufacturing plant, they accept basically any card.
The TUL plant does make cards "to order", with special coolers, and ram chips, which are added after the core/board combos are made. IE: TUL now has a "First Select" deal with Samsung for the DDR3 chips for the new ATI cards.
Big whoop... a crappy interface based off of an even worse movie staring Tom Cruise. Now, when they get the computer interface from swordfish (yay for writing virus' in CAD!) let me know.
Your post completely neglects an important point, 1 CDN$ != 1 USD
This means, that 30,000CDN is not equal to 30,000 USD, and at the 30,000CDN, an equal american is making ~24,000USD. IIRC, this should be enough to lower taxes a few percent.
I do not handle my own taxes, but dont brag about how much cheaper it is in canada, when you neglect important facts.
Also, 60,300 ~= 57,000 in the great scheme of things;)
I stand by the theory that it is a bad idea to start suing your best free advertiser! I really dont care how much "hey look whats coming" data is released early, the worst it can do is raise interest in the product!
I understand you may say that it lets competitors into the game a little early, but honestly, who other than apple fanatics gives a crap about what they are making?
I know people copy them, but again, still not direct competition. Suing a HUGE apple fan site is the worst way to get good publicity.
I realize this, but if someone is asking to do something this simple, I would assume they are not well versed with Recursion, or a Binary search. If the person had gone over binary searches in class, he/she would have mentioned thats what they were doing.
I assumed the person didnt know recursion, so decided to just do an iterative search instead. I do agree that a binary search would be signifigantly (hugely) more efficient.
I did it like that for a reason. the givenintarray[i] will kick out once you proceed past the required value in the loop, without finding it. the iarray.length tests to make sure you dont go out of bounds (assuming the given int is less than the last item).
The if statement just tests to see if it finds a matching one. If i wanted to get rid of ALL extra iterations, the while loop would be:
while(iarray.length && givenintarray[i] && !found)...
Anyway, he said to find one, not to find EVERY one, this just finds the first instance, what he does beyond that is up to him.
Actually, no, you really dont! TUL (AKA PowerColor) has released an AMD 64 939 board with PCI Express, based on the ATI chipset. Unfortunately, it doesnt seem to exist yet on their website, but i have some physical documentation that says otherwise:
