thank you, i'll just go harass mum because she didnt give birth to me early enough
cheers, :P

enwiabe:
My pleasure :D

cosec(x):
Its not actually on the UMEP course anymore I think, the Melbourne model took what was UMEP and then put it through a linear algebra machine and now its mostly linear algebra, This stuff came from MTH 2010, Multivariable calculus, a second year subject at monash (if you do enhancement you'll do it first semester first year)

why would they have that in a second year course? ??? it's pretty easy stuff

oh, and i've seen both and as the variable for the z-axis at various times. there's no set standard.

cosec(x):
its not about the existence of a set standard, its about the relative coolness of each letter, z is the slightly more obscure axes, as is phi the more obscure letter, thus making them equal on a relative coolness scale.

The reason it is second year is because at monash, people who don't do spec. maths do this:
year 1 semester 1, MTH1020 (like specialist)
sem. 2 MTH 1030 (first year maths)
second year MTH 2010, multivariable. It is a second year subject simply due to its time of taking place in a maths major.

Anyway, is any maths "hard" if you do it enough (by that I don't mean prove the Taniyama-Shimura Conjecture maths, just routine, discovered yonks ago and institutionalised maths)
