( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I hope this isn't too clueless a question: does this book require a lot in the way of high level mathematical knowledge? Every once in a while I run headlong into the doleful fact that I was deeply into mathematics all the way through high school ... and then became a reprobate, taking only one mathematics course in my arts-full college years (and not doing well because I had a "difficult quarter," emotionally, blecch). This is something I need to address, but obviously it will take some time. I graduated H.S. in 1979. So, in sum, am intrigued by the discussion of this book but want to make sure it won't be opaque to me (at least for the maths reason).

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
