I don't think that I can just make things up that aren't based on reality without putting in space monsters. :/

You could talk about something that happend on the fora, couldn't you. I'm sure you can remember at least one interesting thing that has happend here.

Just be careful and make sure that it isn't something completely inappropriate. Go for mildly inappropriate, just enough to get under people's skin without actually doing anything offensive enough to get you in serious trouble.

...it's kind of hard to write about things that happened online. It's just text, you can't talk about making any motions or anything. It's got to be interesting.

Talk about the time you went snorkeling and came face-to-face with an eel.

Or the time you got into a snowball fight in 70 degree weather.

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

Is "interesting" part of the assignment, Tzetze, or your decision? What nature of class is it for?

Hm. You could try describing something mundane as though it were interesting. I mean, 'interesting' is subjective, after all, what you find dull could be fascinating to someone else.

...hm.

I'll have to think on that.

Of course it's rather moot since I was supposed to have the rough done today, but eh, I'll work something out. Thank you all for your insight.

You're too late. Be happy that you don't have to do it now?

(This is what I'd do. I do not recommend it as a standard course of action.)

What exactly do you need help with? Seems pretty straight forward: just read the linked to documents and answer the questions.

Does anyone here know how to perform convolution in the time-domain of signals? I only know how to do convolution by applying the frequency domain property of multiplication via a Laplace, Fourier, or Z-transform.

Okay, so, first of all I apologise since my homework probably seems pitifully simple to the lot of you, but we're pretty much just starting polar stuff and it's like a whole new way of thinking about stuff and yeah. So, I need some help.

Now, right now, I mostly need help with converting between rectangular equations and polar equations. I think I'm on the right track, but I kind of want to make sure

So, just to find out, is r=(4)/(1+sinθ) the same as x2+y2=4-y?

Are you converting to rectangular or to polar? Because I think that x2 + y2 = 4 - y is the same as r2 + r(sin θ) - 4 = 0.

That was converting to rectangular. The first equation I put was the original.

Okay. I thought so.

I hate these problems.

I don't know how to convert to polar, but I don't think that you are right.

There's a "sin arctan y/x", ew

fuck, man, I totally blocked everything after Calc I out of my memory. After briefly skimming over the chapter of my old calc book on polar equations and spending 10 minutes playing with trig identities to no avail, I give up.

4/r = 1+sinθ

4/(x2+y2) = ((x2+y2)+y)/(x2+y2)

4 = x2+y2+y

x2+y2 = 4-y

Yes.

Wikipedia said that r = √(x2 + y2) (because Pythagorean theorem).
