  1. Maple on Open Source Math Software For Education? · · Score: 1

    MAPLE is a powerful program for any math functions. It has awesome graphing capabilities, the only downside is the complex way in which one has to enter in the problem, and define what you want the solution to look like, but once one has the basic rules down they can do very complex mathimatic and physics calculations. debatable if Maple is more powerful than Mathimatica, but it is close.

  2. Re:You can have my phone number... on Do-Not-Call Registry Coming to Canada · · Score: 1

    I dont think it is a fair comparison, Canadian gun legislation and the do - not - call list. Gun legislation was rushed (starting dec 6th 1989) and was advocated by a small gorup of women. The only opposition to gun legislation was Alberta and hunters in BC. The opposition to the do - not- call list is commercial and carries more weight than a bunch of redneck. this legislation will take much longer and cost much more, though no advertizing will be neccisary, that would be counter productive. Government research on this topic should be to carry a national referendum, via telephone. This would give them their list and the concensus of the population

  3. Re:Fast car won't guarantee an F1 win on Formula One Racing Just a Matter of Crunching the Numbers · · Score: 1

    The ability to test new aero packages, often and quickly will be a huge advantage for suber, due to the constant changing of the F1 rules and regulations, not to mention the different interpretations of regulations. The new Sauber wind tunnel, coupled with their already superior aero dinamics team should give them an edge in taking advantage of the new regulations, provvided they can construct a more stable chassis this season.

    It is good to see that F1 is still interested in utilizing technology to better performance. One might assume that Ecelstone had killed the desire to be the highest form of racing.
