The Beginning

I wasn't really sure what to expect for this class especially with the title of Mathematical Expression and Reasoning for Computer Science. After the first lecture I was even more confused, mostly when Professor Heap was mentioning that we were here to communicate with precision but not to much precision, and that we would have to adjust the amount of precision to be on par with our peers. I'm assuming this will have more to do with proofs, which I'm also not to familiar with but hopefully will grasp in a good amount of time.

The material we are covering is pretty new to me and I'm finding it somewhat like learning a new language, there are a large chunk of symbols that I'm not to familiar with and knowingly I'll have to cover many to be able to grasp the ideas being taught in class. Though even with the unfamiliarity with the symbols I can understand the message within the lectures about subsets, and proving and disproving existence.

So far this course seems like it will be challenging, hopefully in a good way.

Blogging is pretty new to me so I'm still figuring out a good way to flow through ideas. Hopefully this isn't to broken up.
