jauntty:
1..Glasses have no adverse effect on ur eye. 2..You seems to have high myopia (-7.00Ds). U must constantly wear ur glasses. If the glasses r no longer comfortable then go for a Eye review. 3..You are at risk of developing glaucoma too. So get tested for IOP. 4..is any of ur parent myopic too?

tnx...really greatful@jauntty and drsteriod...none of my parents is.
had an injury in my eyes(was flogged on d eyes) around DEC 2010. since it was treated, I haven't felt it again. do u think there is still any cause for alarm

greetnz doc, I have many questions but 1st, let me describe my eyes. I am 17 yes and has been using glasses since 2010. I am myopic and uses lens of either + or -5.5 (can't actually remember d sign). the lens is no longer serving me well, either it has depreciated in value or my eyes is getting worse. went 4 eye test and they prescribed either + or - 7. don't know if that is 2 much 4 my age.
secondly, is there any hope of my eyes getting better.
thirdly, what medical advice can u give me especially to avoid future blindness.
I am also a phone and laptop Frick...always with my phone
finally, is there any adverse effect of always and constantly wearing glasses.
tnx in advance as I anticipate u professional advice.

after all this hard courses...I will burn down Nigeria if I don't get a well-paying job in my 1st month after graduation...
imagine where an old woman in ur village that has refuses to die will say u won't succeed...thunder fire devil

kayusbrown:
1. Electromagnetic Field Theory (Maxwell Equations) - I think Maxwell is the only one that understands this course.

2. Digital Signal Processing (Fourier Transform)

3. Microprocessor Programming: Teaching a computer how to add just two numbers can be a pain in the ass. Computers are actually dumb.

4. Digital Design (Minimization techniques using 6-variable Karnaugh map and advanced boolean algebra, flip flops)

5. Circuit Analysis (Third Order Circuits, Frequency response, Phasor analysis, Hybrid Parameters of Transistors etc.)

6. Instrumentation and Control (Sampling and quantization, calibration, transfer functions, stability, block diagram reduction etc.)

at least, av seen one EEE student. which school bro.
me...FUTO, EEE

it is either there are no EEE students in this forum or there is no hard course in EEE. have not yet seen any EEE student comment.
rep Futo, EEE

Desxter:
i dnt tink ts d courses ....the lecturers no just sabi teach the tin .......

Dynamics was useless

ODE na God save me ...i no fail am but stil dnt no wat i got
Thermodynamics 1 ...na sweet D _ how i pass thermo 2 ..na God
Control systems .....

seems like u are am EEE student maybe in Futo

ugomira:
Engineering Drawing.... Engr. Okafor

his students spend more time on DAT course than on 4 unit course...people won't understand until they draw up to 100 title blocks. but the man can teach sha. just hated those prelabs.
EEE 200LEVEL, U

Pervert1:
My oen was GSS101(english.L). I wased fell the corse. It wasnt funni atall...in my 300L,i haved to pay someones to writing the exam for me! The person sef no tryed for me,his score a "E"...I'm not happy with him,but hafe brede is bettar than none.

Proudley Engineering boy.

with dis type of English, u should not even expect an E

Abiagirl777:
O.D.E.(mth 203)
Eng 209(eng.thermodynamics),the lecturer dat handled a huge chunk of de course is a hopeless stammerer.
My set failed de course lyk the world trade centre failed in 9/11

wow...seems like you are a Futo student...what dept and level pls

nice work...following fully

Ezechinwa:
hello great minds... we are back again , what you saw in my previous posts were programs that can't make decisions...

so, later on today, i will show you how to develop programs that can make decision...

i haven't used variable types like boolean & string... so far, i will find problems needing such in future....

so later tonight... we move futher, for now i don't think my boss will find it funny seeing me posting rather dan working.. lol.. so, later guys...

u are really a life saver bro. I comment only when I see d need to. I have really seen d need in did thread. thumps up

Ezechinwa:
note: from now, i will update this trend using a red color format...i proceed..
So far, we have looked into few foundations of C++, like the proper implementation of semicolons, brackets etc, in case your just tuning in, you haven't missed that much, just go back and read from the beginning..

Part 3... continues..

4. Header files and directives...

hmm, you want to write a program ( maybe solve a problem, lets say mathematical in nature) , it is important to add "HEADER FILES" using a directive "#include < header file> ..
don't get overwhelmed, let me explain what i mean, there are lots of "Header files" in cplusplus ( and you are not required to know all of them ), these files have a function to play in the program your building..
furthermore, the files are added to the program using a directive #include. you still don't get it?, OK, consider the two concepts we are discussing here namely "directives" and " header files" relate them to this example, assuming your giving an assignment in mathematics ( " to find the area of a square", of course you will go home and apply the formula "AREA= LENGTH * WIDTH" then return the result which is "AREA" to your teacher isn't it? now see ,

the "HEADER FILE" = FORMULA ( which is Area= length * width)
the Directive( #include) = YOU "applying the formula to the problem" ...

I will share with you few header files for beginners below,
"#include <stdio.h> " //will make the compiler to include the contents of standard header file
"#include <iostream>" // basically tells the compiler: i need input and output..
"#include <math.h> // to preform some mathematical operations, you need this library..

note:: please bear with me, i will get my laptop repaired soon, for now, am typing with a phone.. thank you..

Ezechinwa, u re really doing a good job here. keep it up and God will increase ur knowledge.

Elm@gnifico:
There is this ish about FUTO,upper levels will always tell you about this course that nobody has ever passed, Don't and Never be discombobulated cos once u believe it u will never pass, keep your head up, come for lectures, Do your assignments, and run your practicals, developed a r/ship with your course rep, use your head well, if you have time visit Air port inside futo, Don't go near Ota mmiri river for any Godamn reason,...Futo can be fun and frustrated, fun when you manage your time well, Fr when you start failling courses...Finalist SST

tnk you 4 d advice

radiokilla: Erm i'm quite buried in my books now,eng308 and its colleagues no b beans,
As for freshers,just resume when the new semesta begins on errrm 26th jan.*coughs*
If u would like to stay in the sch hostel please and please choose the new hostel errm hostel F ,leave hostel e for we the cool guys,except you are cool,as for the ladies,hostel C is d in thing.

In between,FUTO is a cool school,but one for the hotheads especially in SEET(sch of engineering) so dnt be fooled by your fellow freshers,they are known for their WISKID kind of dressing,bt as time goes they are blended in the futo way,and if care is not taken they graduate with the swag of daddy showkey.

Compliments of the season futoites
*crawled back to his books*

Obinovictor: Welcome to FUTO- the glory land...
*The major thing you actually need is your head.
*Don't get carried away with activities in the school. Create time to read your books everyday.
*Associate with the fellowship of your choice, you need God to survive here.
*Fresher's night of various forms will come your way... If you're the social type, attending is good but not necessary. If you must, attend just few.
*Avoid all forms of cultism, if you're caught, na home tinz o.
*If you'll stay in school hostel, do not break rules or you won't like the outcome if you're caught.

Welcome once again.
