[Blindmath] Cal questions

[Peter Wolfe]

Blind Math List:


     It's me Petere again with some calculus issues again. I just
moved into my new apartment with recieving my nemeth code book with
algebra, trigonometry and geometry textbooks as well. I just started
with calculus and quite frankly its overwhelming me right now. First
off, I haven't had precalculus in two and a half years from a little
community college, which coddled you with a tutor. I don't know nemeth
code either and the test on previous knowledge is on Monday with no
grade on my overall grade in the course.
     So, I'm trying to start off in the right order. I'm not even sure
as I don't use precalculus nor have any knowledge in trig to know what
all signs I need. Unfortunately timing is a huge issue with the e-mail
from the professor being very slow in coming in enough time for me as
a blind student to convert over to braille in which I wish to learn
calculus in. Moreover, learning the algebra, geometry and trig signs
with rules and steps is going to be hard with learning calculus as
well. I'm just trying to remember some precalculus but if you don't
use it you forget it. Two pieces of advice is wait to see how the test
goes or continue onward. Well, I don't remember anything cause like I
said "If you don't use it you forget it" and this doesn't matter how
smart you think you are either. Its causing me serious faith questions
right now with serious fighting with bouts of alcoholic fits with
rages and violence as well.
     Thanks for anymore advice you guys might charitably give to me.
I'm just trying to know where to start on this monumental problem of
mathematics in braille for a computer science and perhaps software
engineering student. How much would I just need to memorize in the
future or not cause multiple signals constantly found and recieved as
well. Damn I just get stumpt as to being a former visual learner and a
tactical learning person cause now I'm far slower than I used to be.
I'm even thinking about asking a muslim professor I know in another
engineering field to help me out if he can. The apathetic christian
elite doesn't apparently give a rats including professors or anybody.
Trying to get a tutor recommmendation is pathetically dragful and
pathetic as well. More liberal schools are better in my opinion in
this respect just in over my head in the temporary hopefully cause
wasting three years and two years of dormitoryt and a year of
apartment rent must be a bitch for people that paid for it including
social security and grants and etc as well. I'd hate to fail in this
far into the game cause its sort of wasting other peoples
opportunities.

sincerely,
Peter
