welcome to njit, home of the freaks and geeks. NJIT is home to a bunch of real characters.

here is a quote list by the most loveable mechanical engineering faculty that has ever graced the department

Adding on - those sites are great to learn the concepts. If you like books:

Cracking the Coding Interview

Algorithms

Also for practice problems, leetcode.com and hackerrank.com

I have her for diff eq right now. She's a good teacher and knows the material extremely well, she just goes very quickly as you can read from her reviews on http://www.ratemyprofessors.com/ShowRatings.jsp?tid=1897907 She is also pretty nice and funny.

I took MATH 211 (3 credit Calc 3A). Calc 3 is considered easier than Calc 2 by many so if you passed 2 at NJIT you should be fine. The letter grade requirements are lower than in 2, so for example in 3 you only need a 60 to get a C whereas in 2 you need a 66. You will work a lot with vectors in this class.

I never took MATH 213 ( 4 credit Calc 3B) but this class goes in more depth and you will likely have to take it if you are an EE. For this class a 65 is a C according to the syllabus.

> dedicated VPN that allows port forwarding such as AirVPN

To be clear, this is not strictly necessary (although it's probably the standard answer any IT person will tell you). At the very least you shouldn't use AirVPN's proprietary client due to concerns about lack of eyes by the general public on the source code so you should be using something like stunnel. Or ya know, OpenSSH. But wait, you say? Don't I need a shell, not just a VPN service for that? How right you are!

The reason it's not necessary is that you can just use any of the various free shells.

edit: If you don't feel that adventurous and you trust NJIT admins not to sniff your data (although if you aren't using ssh to tunnel your web traffic out of NJIT's dorm network you implicitly trust everybody on the NJIT network, which is not a good idea -- I may or may not have actively sniffed for passwords just to show the NJIT IT staff that they were incompetent with how they ran the network authentication), feel free to ssh tunnel to which do have unique public IPs and are a great way to get into your dorm PC from home (this is what I did, works great).

I like to keep it lightweight. a small multi-subject notebook for all my classes, and in the case I actually need more room I can just swap it out for a new one (or expand into another section).

This treated me well last year, although I didn't get this size
Amazon - Five Star Advance Notebook

I write pretty small, so your mileage may vary

You might get a faster response on the YWCC discord server: https://discord.com/invite/7ensTaK

Also, "Job" implies payment so I would specify whether that's included. I would also specify which class this is for so those who have taken it can help. Otherwise, good luck on your project!

not a lot to go on:

This is why people need to use sites like this.

Yes I am a professor.

Yes I stand by my own reviews.

Haha, looking to get HIST213 done as well! I'm assuming this is her. Only 3 reviews, but all say she's a good lenient professor so I'm taking the chance!

• If you use a normal amount of paper to wipe your ass like a normal human, you have a decent chance of not flooding the library bathrooms.

• Wearing deodorant and showering regularly will increase your CHAR trait.

• There is a secret freight elevator in the back of CKB, that gets a lot less traffic than the ones in the front.

• If you go down one floor from the math tutoring center, you'll find the nicest and frankly most serene bathrooms on campus.

Linux is a free and open-source operating system. There are different Linux flavors (called distros or distributions). For example, the most common distro is called Ubuntu, which you can download here. Every Linux distro comes with a command line prompt, called the Terminal. This is where you can type various commands and do very interesting things.

You can either install Linux along with your current OS (atleast for Windows, IDK about mac), known as dualbooting, or create a virtual machine inside your own system and run a Linux distro from there. Basically, you run Linux within your current system. Its pretty neat and good for beginners who don't want to get blindsided from learning Linux commands. There are plenty of online and video tutorials where you can learn how to install Linux this way.

Knowing the Terminal and some of the various commands is a must-have skill for anyone who wants to get into technology. Many companies are switching to Linux because its free and lightweight, meaning that it doesn't occupy too much space on a HDD/SSD after installed.

Go to https://www.solidworks.com/sw/education/SDL_form.html

Select "No" for the trial number starting with 9020

Enter: 92018SDK in the School liscense ID, SDK

select 2018-2019 for the version and enter your njit email and Boom. It shows download instructions and they send you're licensing info

I highly recommend everyone to download/visit the privacy app . It basically makes a proxy card for any online store/services, you have the option of setting a limit as to how much a business can take from your account and you can set single use cards that expire after any one time purchase.

Read the C book: https://www.amazon.com/Programming-Language-2nd-Brian-Kernighan/dp/0131103628

And don't just read the C book, but check your understanding. Play around with pointers, try to mess with variable scope, etc. Try to develop an intuition for the languages you learn.

The basics of bash and regex also wouldn't hurt, if it's still in the course curriculum. It's probably better to hold off on everything else.

[Or you can Amazon search and find 'em for ~20$]

You can buy it for $33 on kindle, which can be read in the app, pc program, or in browser.

Go read Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs if you want to learn CS. If you want to learn how to make apps or web sites you should pick some online tutorial about something close to what you want to do and adapt it. If you don’t know what you want to make, just make something and then something else.

>noise cancellation headphones

Are not always effective. In my second job I was seated behind this monstrosity of a pig who would spend all day gossipping as loud as she could (but became whisper quiet if it was something really juicy)

I could not get my work done and my boss was useless in making any meaningful changes so I bought some 100$ sennheiser active noise cancelling headphones.

It is pretty cool how they worked but they couldn't even silence that pig. They did definitely reduce the volume but not enough that it removed her voice completely.

I ended up buying these noise protection earmuffs

They seemed to reduce her voice by a significant margin so I could finally get my work done.

Unfortunately they are a bit tight so when I occasionally wear glasses, they start to hurt my head after a while because these earmuffs really push hard against your head.

I'm looking to replace my garbage Razer Blackwidow; what do you think about the Corsair STRAFE with Cherry MX Silent switches?

If you aren't taking Calculus 3 in the future, you can buy the single variable version of the book with MyMathLab access for $150 here. A standalone access code will cost almost as much. Also, this book is smaller and lighter than the full version, and isn't loose leaf like that $230 version in the bookstore.

Bought This Junior year of high school and itd still good as new. I took it everywhere with me and it's definitely hefty hefty hefty

My project was pretty much a smart outlet. (Coincidentally one of my prototypes used the same zigbee communication standard that Samsung now uses.) The difference between these two was that I wanted my device to handle high current as well as non-linear loads without using relays (for increased reliability) so I made use of opto isolated solid state relays, which in the end produced a decent amount of heat that made high current loads challenging lol

Anyway, my team made three fully working prototypes and each one of our failures was a learning experience which is the whole point of the experience.

Who's your professor for 252? The required book is still this one. Lowest price I see is $20ish, so I guess $20.

Any tips for ECE 422? I have the two old exams that are on the ECE drive, but the multiple choice part is not very useful because we have a different book (this book). I read through the PPTs but I don't know what else to do.

EDIT: apparently it was the same last semester, anyone still has their exam?

Also, there is a section in the NJIT GO app, for both iOS and Android that shows the predictions and stop locations but you have to go stop by stop to see.
