I kinda wish you didn't have to do [PDEng], but nobody asked me.

Morton, SE 101

They don't give me direct access to the [Quest] database... that would have been bad.

You get history in your computer science class, but do you get computer science in your history class?

Clarke, CS 137

'Free' in the liberated sense, not 'free' in the 'free beer' sense.

Student: Can we code in ignorance?
Prof: No, you're software engineers, you have to code in knowledge.

If we had the Star Trek function that could teleport around, it wouldn't be continuous.

Clarke, CS 137

You can tell it's working because it works.

Clarke, CS 137

I feel bad that I didn't give enough exercises to take up your whole Thanksgiving weekend. You probably had time to sleep and stuff.

Csima, PMATH 330

Don't become a mathematician; you'll end up with a spouse in another country.

[in reference to FORTRAN] I use the programming language of champions.

Vrscay, MATH 227

Now, like calling a date for the first time, calling a procedure might seem a little scary. But we're going to be proactive and jump and link. Although you probably shouldn't jump and link on the first date.

Vasiga, CS 241

But math is philosophy. Or philosophy is math. Anyone have any smokes? I need a joint.

This door has a damper, so this door won't slam. (lets go of the door, it slams) So c is too small on this door. I should call Plant Ops.

West, AMATH 250

We haven't proven it, but that is the only solution. Pure math students can cringe now.

West, AMATH 250

We get rid of the i. That would make Apple mad.

West, AMATH 250

So if you wanted to prove this, you'd be using this thing I'm erasing now.

Dupont, MATH 117

This is just a convention. Someone made it up one day, and everyone followed along. Kind of like marijuana.

Dupont, MATH 117

Obviously this doesn't hold if x is 0, because if you type in 5 divided by zero on your calculator, you get an error. Hey, we should make arctan of error equal to /4.
