From another point of view, the lectures are purely focused on giving an intuition behind concepts in modern theoretical physics, which is only a very small part of what is taught in an undergraduate program. Lagrangians are a difficult, an

I worked through the entire core sequence over about 18 months, along with texts recommended by friends and on forums. In particular, Shankar's Quantum Mechanics, and Taylor's Classical Mechanics were great supplements to the first two cour

Having a bit of a look at the docs^1, I don't really see it as "yet another arrays package". The API exposes generalized table/array operations, and a subset of those features can be implemented using NumPy's ndarrays. If the interface is c

FWIW, due to the way that the IPv4 address space is allocated, you could achieve far fewer "collisions" (i.e. different IPs producing the same palette) by throwing away the first byte instead. http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-s
