Mathematics?

[justin10ec]

I really need a dataset to play with, I created this questionnaire. All answers are anonymous. If you're feeling generous today, please take a minute to complete it. It's only 5 questions.

No longer taking responses

Edit: I have 85 responses now. I'm going to go ahead and stop accepting responses, this is going to take a while to do what I want to do.

Thanks for all of your support. If this generates high interest, I'll be doing many more and hopefully they will concern Ubuntu


Simple Results:
Here are the simple results, I plan to make some more advanced results later.

Takes about 10 seconds to help out. And don't worry, you don't have to work out any math problems!

Thank you so much. I have 9 submits already. This community is amazing.

I'll be more than happy to share the results here when I am done if anyone wants to know. :D

[fwre01]

done and done!

[Barrucadu]

Done

[Marlonsm]

Answered!

BTW, could you show us the results? I'm curious to know how people here fells about math.

I just like playing with numbers and I'm curious. It seems as if a lot of people here are curious too :D.

I am planning a career in computer science, but given it's math roots, I entered that I was planning a career in math anyway :wink:

[Pasdar]

Done... i'm a math king :D

[justin10ec]

Awesome! Thanks everybody. 54 answers already, I can't wait for it to grow some more :D.

[Corelogik]

Done.

I wasn't sure if I should pick algebra or calculus as my favorite. But I really love doing algebra even thought it is very fun making and solving problems with calculus.

My career involves lots of trigonometry and a few other specialised subjects. That's good: I'd always hated mathematics at school, and now I've learned to love it. It gave me the balls to attempt programming, which was another bonus.

The way I look at mathematics now is rather like this: the most basic skill is transposition of formulae. That's the grammar, the syntax. Learn that, and the rest is just vocabulary.

I'm just in Algebra 1. I'm only a freshman in high school, will be a sophomore next year. Only 2 days left of this year :D. I've really been turned on to math this year. I love any statistics type thing. I like being able to say "So many people from this group feel this way about this thing."

I started programming (PHP) last year in the 8th grade.

If you enjoy mathematics, you'll probably enjoy this book (http://www.amazon.co.uk/God-Created-Integers-Mathematical-Breakthroughs/dp/014101878X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1243289303&sr=1-1).

Same for me, but finally I picked Calculus :)

[izizzle]

Done.

Done!

Did my part mate. I am a bit old for this questionnaire though. Have been working with Differential Algebraic equations and stochastic modeling for more than 10 years now.

That's good! I want very diverse answers. I want to know how people in general feel, not just people of a certain group. :)

Please see the original post for the simple results :). I will be adding more advanced results later.
