Do You Need To Be Good At Math For Computer Science?

If there is one subject that has equal lovers and haters, it is definitely mathematics. Math is one of the most important subjects of our school time and interestingly many career choices depend on how good you are in the subject. No wonder, every student asking this question – is it important to be good at Math to pursue computer science? The question becomes imperative because if you aspire to take admission in the best engineering college for computer science, it is important to have expert-level in all three subjects of Non Medical – Physics, Chemistry and Math. So before we give you a concrete answer to the question, let us first tell you how computer science and Math are related.

Computer science is all about using computer programs and practical approach to creating applications related with computers. So how does mathematics fit in between computer science and programming? The answer is – there are certain subjects of mathematics like calculus, probability, statistics, linear algebra, linear programming etc that are purely related with computer science and computer programming. So all those students who wish to pursue their higher education in one of the best engineering colleges for computer science and build their career in creating applications or programming, good mathematics is the best bonus they can ask for!

The simple way to correlate your career interest and choice is that everyone who is good at mathematics can surely go for computer science but that shouldn’t stop you from taking computer science if you are just an average student in Math. Computer science is a vast field and there are many things that a student can do with just basic understanding of Math like web app development, operating systems etc. You can excel in other branches than programming or coding in computer science engineering even if you are not a topper in mathematics.

Student who wants to build a flourishing career in programming, good mathematical mind is a big strength. In fact, you are not expected to be good at arithmetic, calculations or geometry, computer science engineering is best done when students have a strong mathematical thinking.

For that matter, if you wish to do engineering in any other field than computer science; say mechanical engineering or electronics engineering; your marks and expertise level in three subjects – Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics, decide which institute you get admission in to and for what branch of engineering. So computer science engineering students are by default expected to be good at Math. Moreover, if you want to build a career in artificial intelligence, command in statistics, calculus, probability, logic and a little bit of knowledge of all these branches of mathematics would help you learn faster and better.

Motors in Electric Vehicle

Due to worse effect of fossil fuel on environment, Electric vehicle (EV) was introduced. The core element of the EV, apart from Batteries, which replaces the Internal Combustion engines is an Electric motor. Older designs used standard DC motors, which are relatively economically controlled when driven with batteries. New designs use either AC Induction motors or Permanent Magnet Rotor AC motors, driven by electronic inverters. In general, lower power applications will use the PM AC motors which are slightly more efficient for a given task, while high-performance vehicles will use induction motors since they are capable of very large acceleration torques relative to their weight for short intervals, until they overheat. All new Electric Vehicles and even hybrids use AC electric motors. They are lighter, more powerful and can be used as a generator makes power as you slow down or brake called Regenerative braking. 

Permanent Magnet AC Motor

Permanent magnet AC motors (PMAC) are just like standard induction AC motors except they have permanent, rare-earth magnets attached to their rotors. Having these permanent magnets instead of electromagnets reduces energy losses in the motor. They are also called synchronous AC motors.  Most of the automotive manufacturers use PMAC motors for their hybrid and electric vehicles. For example, Toyota Prius, Chevrolet Bolt EV, Ford Focus Electric, zero motorcycles S/SR, Nissan Leaf, Hinda Accord, BMW i3, etc use PMAC motor for propulsion.

AC Induction Motors

Induction motor works on the principle of induction where electro-magnetic field is induced into the rotor when rotating magnetic field of stator cuts the stationary rotor. Induction machines are by far the most common type of motor used in industrial, commercial or residential settings. Squirrel cage induction motors have a long life due to less maintenance. Induction motors can be designed up to an efficiency of 92-95%. The drawback of an induction motor is that it requires complex inverter circuit and control of the motor is difficult.

Typically, most of the manufacturers use synchronous motors, but whether it is a permanent magnet or electromagnet strongly influences the performance. The key difference is that AC induction motors have to use electricity to generate the magnetic currents inside the motor, which cause the rotor to spin, whereas a permanent magnet motor doesn’t require that additional current since its magnets—created from rare-earth materials—are always “on.”

Data types in Python: Numeric Data Type

Python is a clear and powerful object-oriented programming language, comparable to Perl, Ruby, Scheme, or Java. In my last blog we have discussed the key features of python. Now we are going to dive into the programming concepts of python. In this blog we will discuss about data types used in the python

   

Data Types

Data types are the classification or categorization of data items. It represents the kind of value a particular variable can hold and tells what operations can be performed on that particular data.

   

Since everything is an object in Python programming, data types are actually classes and variables are instance (object) of these classes. The type of a variable in the python is decided by the type of value assigned to that variable.

   

Example:

   

# type() function is used to identify the datatype of variable or object.

>>> x = 10

>>> type(x)

<class 'int'>

>>> x = 10.0

>>> type(x)

<class 'float'>

>>> x = 5+8j

>>> type(x)

<class 'complex'>

>>> x = 'Mukesh'

>>> type(x)

<class 'str'>

>>> x = ['Mukesh','Kumar']

>>> type(x)

<class 'list'>

>>> x = ('Mukesh', 'Kumar')

>>> type(x)

<class 'tuple'>

>>> x = {'fname':'Mukesh', 'lname':'Kumar'}

>>> type(x)

<class 'dict'>

>>>

   

Built-in data type of python are as follows:

                            

Let us discuss about Numeric Data type

Numbers

The Python interpreter acts as a simple calculator, You can write an expression and interpreter will display the value. Expression syntax is straight forward: the operators +, -, * and / work just like in most other languages (for example, Pascal or C); parentheses (()) can be used for grouping.

Examples

>>> 7 + 3

10

>>> 70 - 5*6

40

>>> (70 - 5*6) / 4

10.0

>>> 9 / 5  # division always returns a floating point number

1.8

There are three distinct numeric types: integers, floating point numbers, and complex numbers. In addition, Booleans are a subtype of integers.

Integers

This value is represented by ‘int’ class. It contains positive or negative whole numbers (without fraction or decimal). In Python there is no limit to how long an integer value can be.

Float

This value is represented by ‘float’ class. It is a real number with floating point representation and specified by a decimal point.

Complex Numbers

Complex number is represented by ‘complex’ class. It is specified as (real part) + (imaginary part)j. For example – 5+8j

Basic Operations on Numeric Type

The integer numbers (e.g. 2, 4, 20) have type ‘int’, the ones with a fractional part (e.g. 5.0, 1.6) have type  ‘float’.

Division (/) always returns a float. To do floor division and get an integer result (discarding any fractional result) you can use the // operator; to calculate the remainder you can use %:

Examples

>>> 7+3 # addition operator

10

>>> 7-3 #minus operator

4

>>> 7*3 #multiplication operator

21

>>> 17 / 3  # classic division returns a float

5.666666666666667

>>> 

>>> 17 // 3  # floor division discards the fractional part

5

>>> 17 % 3  # the % operator returns the remainder of the division

2

>>> 5 * 3 + 2  # result * divisor + remainder

17

With Python, it is possible to use the ** operator to calculate powers

>>> 5 ** 2  # 5 squared

25

>>> 2 ** 7  # 2 to the power of 7

128

The equal sign (=) is used to assign a value to a variable. Afterwards, no result is displayed before the next interactive prompt:

>>> width = 20

>>> height = 5 * 9

>>> width * height

900

If a variable is not “defined” (assigned a value), trying to use it will give you an error:

>>> n  # try to access an undefined variable

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

NameError: name 'n' is not defined

There is full support for floating point; operators with mixed type operands convert the integer operand to floating point:

>>> 4 * 3.75 - 1

14.0

In interactive mode, the last printed expression is assigned to the variable _. This means that when you are using Python as a desk calculator, it is somewhat easier to continue calculations, for example:

>>> tax = 12.5 / 100

>>> price = 100.50

>>> price * tax

12.5625

>>> price + _

113.0625

>>> round(_, 2)

113.06

This variable should be treated as read-only by the user. Don’t explicitly assign a value to it — you would create an independent local variable with the same name masking the built-in variable with its magic behavior.

All numeric types (except complex) support the following operations:

   

Operation	Result	Full documentation
x + y	sum of x and y
x – y	difference of x and y
x * y	product of x and y
x / y	quotient of x and y
x // y	floored quotient of x and y
x % y	remainder of x / y
-x	x negated
+x	x unchanged
abs(x)	absolute value or magnitude of x	abs()
int(x)	x converted to integer	int()
float(x)	x converted to floating point	float()
complex(re, im)	a complex number with real part ‘re’, imaginary part ‘im’. im defaults to zero.	complex()
c.conjugate()	conjugate of the complex number c
divmod(x, y)	the pair (x // y, x % y)	divmod()
pow(x, y)	x to the power y	pow()
x ** y	x to the power y
