Been advised to repost here.
I am sure some of you will get upset by this OT post, but I am trying to reach coders with knowledge about numerical processing in C/C++.
I am a beginner in this form of computing, presently trying to implement FFT in signal detection and processing.
I am no mathematician and have trouble transferring mathematical formulas to code.
I am presently looking for some reasonable text(book) to learn about the numerical computing.
I have found this source “Numerical Recipes in C” but I am not sure if that is a good starting point for me.
I am not looking for specific processing library, I just want someplace to start learning.
Thanks for understanding
Cheers
Vaclav

Note: this is not intended as a statement of political opinion, a denouncement, an endorsement, a fatwa, a bill of excommunication, a fluorescent wriggling pedipalp on a lure designed for troll-fishing, a poison-pill, or a paean. It's meant to be simply another footnote to the on-going encyclopedia of the surreal that every culture updates every nanohertz.
"HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius compared the exchanges to Apple products. The tech company doesn't just abandon its products if they have glitches - it improves them with updates, she pointed out to health care reporters yesterday. "No one is calling on Apple to not sell devices for a year or two or get out of the business because the whole thing is a failure. Everybody assumes [if] there's a problem, [Apple will] fix it and move on." [^].
That's U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sibelius, speaking of the roll-out of ObamaCare.
"Hello, you have reached Universal Health Care Exchange 3.0, now featuring the Turbo blur-reduction filter for 300% faster assitance for your stupid, incoherent, vague, whinging, concerns. Please press pound-sign nine to continue."
#9
"Hello, you have reached the products and services dispatch center 2.3 beta: our monitors show your respirator is running an outdated version of iOS; we can be of assistance to you by first helping you upgrade iOS. If that is convenient, please press #1; if that is not convenient, or this is an emergency, please press #0."

"Hello, you have reached HHS Emergency Services version 1.123: our monitors show your respirator is running an outdated version of iOS; we can be of assistance to you by first helping you upgrade iOS. If that is convenient, please press #1; if that is not convenient, or this is an emergency, please press #0."
Google CEO, Erich Schmidt: "I keep asking for a product called Serendipity. This product would have access to everything ever written or recorded, know everything the user ever worked on and saved to his or her personal hard drive, and know a whole lot about the user's tastes, friends and predilections." 2004, USA Today interview

People will use popular references that they know of, and that their intended audience know of.
I can imagine that in a few years politician will use other kind of popular references.
I'd rather be phishing!

Er, yeah[^].
apple, like all tech companies, drops products that aren't selling, and only "improves them with updates" if they're selling.
Nice of her to admit to her level of knowledge, of both the industry and the real world, though.

Unfortunately... the comparison neglects to realize the gov't controls one, while the private sector controls the other... big big difference.

Her analogy has a fatal flaw... Apple doesn't tax you if you don't buy their product or a competitors.
|
|

|

But Apple fanboys look at you with a disapproving glare. That's almost the same as a tax, right? It certainly taxes my patience...

Only if you care what they think. Otherwise it's just an interesting exercise in watching people think that feeling smug actually makes them superior.
Personally, I take the Mr T approach. You know, pity the fool..
Plugging an android into a telly to watch a movie from the memory card usually presents an opportunity to ask - "Really? What do you mean that's neat? Cant yours do that too?"
I know, I know. Its a guilty pleasure. :smirk:

Nope... just makes them look like fools.

That, sir, deserves a 5.
I guess I walked right into that one. 
Yet another testimony to my foolishness. No wonder I bought an android.

Nope. It got pulled a while back.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You're free to advertise. Don't be surprised if a bunch of spammer shaped larts come flying your way though.

Have you considered moving?
I would.

So I'm looking for a developer, enlighten me, why would I move?

To be surreal.
We all know that reality sucks, so doing the opposite can't be a bad idea.
