2004-09-20 [Firenze]: yep

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: standard deviation

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: I think the real problem you're having is the notation. I've done it in the form of a sort of table there.

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: (hope the answers are right)

2004-09-20 [Firenze]: The answers are correct from what I can tell, I think your write about the notations, thanks for your help you have really cleared up how it works, thanks a million ^_^, you're a wiz at maths ^_^, thanks again, now hopefully I can get on with my Chemistry homework as well.

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: Did you follow the steps ok? I didn't really write much description. But its been no problem, glad to help, and hope it did help you get it.

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: Hehe... and I should be good at maths really. I'm doing a degree in it after all ;)

2004-09-20 [Firenze]: the steps are easier to understand compared to the ones given by my maths teacher

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: Well thats good, I tend to always do this sorta question in tables. The only problem you'll find after a while is it takes so damned long! (especially the more data there is). Anyway, feel free to come back should you need anything explaining and we'll do our best here to sort it out. (damn, I sounded so much like an advert there!)

2004-09-20 [Firenze]: Ok, by the way if you are studying chemistry and having a hard time send me a message ^_^

2004-09-20 [Mohazy]: nice job [shotokan_gal]

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: Hehe... ok, will do

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: Thanks [Mohazy] :) Nice to do some teaching at last

2004-09-20 [Firenze]: ^_^

2004-09-20 [Mohazy]: yep a college without students is so boring,[Firenze] gave us some stuff to do,by the way u can always check the final answer using the calculator, i mean the standard deviation

2004-09-20 [Firenze]: Well I'm always glad to help, and you will probaly have a load more questions asked later on in the year

2004-09-20 [Mohazy]: good,we are ready for questions really

2004-09-20 [Firenze]: *smiles* no offence but I hate maths but I need it for the course I want to take in university

2004-09-20 [Mohazy]: well maths is much more fun when u study applied maths not theoritical maths, maths is so important in my study (automatic control)

2004-09-20 [Firenze]: Cool, well at the moment I am studying English Lit, Maths, Biology and Chemistry(The most amazing subject ever, lol), so I am studying these subjects so I can study forensic pathology

2004-09-20 [shotokan_gal]: Well now thats a matter of opinion :p I prefer pure maths by far. Dropped mechanics after my first year, and now the stats modules after my second.
