"A recreational mathematician" - the best kind. I'm something like that as well. I just got my MS in electrical engineering from CU Boulder - and now I'm finishing up my PhD at UCSB. Anyway, always fun to find a fellow Colorado-lover. If you're ever in the mood for some recreational economics, you might find my game theory series fun. I go super easy on the math though, so maybe that will be disappointing. :)
Thanks! I doubt it'll disappoint completely. I'll let you know. ;)
Wow, this is so uplifting to read.
I am currently doing my Electrical Engineering course, and I love to do recreational maths on the side for fun.
I hope to one day make it to my PhD, though I have been struggling with some courses I hope to get better.
Go for it! Electrical Engineering is such a great blend of physics, math, and "real" engineering. I hope you stick it out!
