(no subject)

I've spent all week working on homework for one of the Profs at work. We're forcing him to modernize - he has a software package that he had written for him in 1986 to let his students do all their homework on the computer (they each got a floppy with the student side of the program on it), and then every week he'd collect disks and the instructor side would do all the grading and gradebook stuff. XPSP2 killed it.

Now, I'm typing the entire semester's worth of homework into an online package called Desire2Learn. It's really fairly neat in what it can do (multiple choice, true/false, matching, ordering, arithmetic, etc. questions), but it does mean I get to type in 23 problem sets, with supplemental data, but no pictures (yet). I started Tuesday and have two sets left to go.

My typing speed is increasing, and I can keyboard fun things like:
a_o² = b_T-i·(g_(i)²·C_oe^Q/_RT)

and get them right on the first try.
( the code for this is really messy )
