Chapter 6 Teacher, I want to study by myself
In fact, as a university teacher, He Sheng generally does not interfere too much with students, but listening in class is still He Sheng's most basic requirement for students.
As for the usual score, He Sheng will not be too stuck. As long as the student's final exam score is on the verge of passing, He Sheng can even "fine-tune" the usual score so that the student can pass. .
It’s just that the scores of some students are too poor. Even if they get full marks from the usual points, they will not pass in the end.
With the lessons learned from the last time, almost no one skipped class in this class. Many students were also affected by He Sheng's words, and they were obviously much more serious than before.
During the break, He Sheng habitually took a look to see if any students came up to ask questions.
He Sheng is not the kind of university teacher who leaves immediately after class, because He Sheng feels that as long as students listen carefully to the class, they will definitely ask some questions.
This sight did not disappoint He Sheng. He saw a familiar figure walking straight towards He Sheng from the last row.
It was Ning Chen who handed in the last quiz in less than ten minutes and got full marks.
Because he teaches too many students, He Sheng can rarely remember the names of his students, unless they are students like Ning Chen who impress him deeply.
"Teacher, do you have time?"
"Yes, what's the matter, Ning Chen, did you not understand anything in the class just now?"
Ning Chen was a little surprised. He Sheng was able to call out his name all at once, which was a very rare thing for a university teacher.
"No, teacher, I understand everything you just said..."
In fact, Ning Chen didn't listen to the lecture at all, but since Ning Chen has completely understood "Advanced Mathematics (Advanced Mathematics) (Part 1)", Ning Chen would naturally not have any problems with what He Sheng said.
"Teacher, I would like to know about the entire course content of the mathematics major university."
This time, it was He Sheng's turn to be surprised.
"What, Ning Chen, are you interested in mathematics and want to switch to mathematics?"
As an associate professor of mathematics in the School of Science, He Sheng is really worried about this. I hope that students like Ning Chen can transfer to the School of Science and have the opportunity to become their own students in the future.
According to the requirements of Shengzhou University, as long as students’ grades reach the top ten percent of their major rankings, they will have the opportunity to change majors.
He Sheng felt that students like Ning Chen should still have a very good chance of obtaining the qualifications to change majors.
Ning Chen himself has not considered changing his major. Although Ning Chen did not like the materials major in his previous life, after resurrecting his life, Ning Chen felt that as long as he could keep climbing up, it would not be a bad idea to stay in the materials major. .
Anyway, now that I have the support of the system, it doesn’t matter whether I change my major or not.
"Teacher, I haven't considered changing my major yet."
"Huh? Are you preparing to participate in a mathematics competition?"
"I haven't considered this yet. Teacher, I am very interested in mathematics. I want to learn about the mathematics major courses and then study on my own. Teacher, can you give me some advice?"
Listen to Ning Chen Having said that, although He Sheng still felt a little confused, he didn't ask any more questions. "Of course, I'll explain it to you right now."
As he said that, He Sheng picked up a piece of chalk and wrote on the blackboard while explaining it to Ning Chen. .
"Mathematics is divided into the following five second-category subjects: basic mathematics, operations research and control theory, probability theory and mathematical statistics, computational mathematics, and applied mathematics. Here I will focus on the basic mathematics part. .”
Although Ning Chen's memory is now much better than before, in order to prevent forgetting these important contents, he still chooses to record the key points of He Sheng's explanation.
“As the name suggests, basic mathematics is the study of the most basic mathematical knowledge, but in fact basic mathematics is not as simple as imagined. It ranges from the most basic four arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, to large ones including 'Riemann' The research on unsolved conjectures in mathematics such as "Conjecture" and "Goldbach's Conjecture" actually belongs to the research scope of basic mathematics..."
Ning Chen did not have a clear concept of the classification of these subjects before. Seriously Listening to He Sheng's explanation, at the same time, he constructed a rough structure diagram of relevant mathematics subjects in his mind.
“Of course, it is definitely not our goal to solve these unknown conjectures in mathematics. After all, many conjectures have troubled mankind for hundreds of years. In our mathematics majors, the main courses we study include... …”
Listening to the course contents listed by He Sheng, Ning Chen was also a little surprised.
Because it is only the first year of college, the professional courses taken by mathematics majors include mathematical analysis, advanced algebra, analytic geometry, elementary number theory, abstract algebra, etc.
If you include the entire undergraduate period, there are even more than 20 mathematics courses taken by mathematics majors, and this does not include various software and programs to help study mathematics.
“I didn’t expect that mathematics can be subdivided into these subjects, and it turns out that mathematics majors do not study advanced mathematics.”
Ning Chen couldn’t help but feel a little ashamed of his ignorance, After all, Ning Chen's real age is over thirty years old, but this is the first time he has learned this knowledge.
"Of course, to put it bluntly, advanced mathematics is just the most basic overview of the knowledge learned in mathematics majors. So in fact, advanced mathematics is not as difficult as you think at all. If you go and listen Only by taking courses in mathematics can you know what real mathematics is.”
Since He Sheng was only explaining to Ning Chen alone, He Sheng's voice was not loud, which made many students not very clear about what He Sheng and Ning Chen were talking about.
“Teacher He and Ning Chen have been chatting for the entire class, and looking at Teacher He’s expression, he seems to be very happy.”
He Sheng’s usual impression on the students has always been It was more serious. This was the first time they saw He Sheng with so many smiles on his face.
“I saw that Teacher He also wrote Goldbach’s conjecture on the blackboard. Isn’t this boy Ning Chen going to start studying unknown conjectures in mathematics?”
“No. Well, is Brother Chen already so awesome?”
"Anyway, Brother Chen is definitely not on the same level as us. Others take the 100% test because they have 100% strength. Brother Chen takes the 100% test because the top test paper only has 100 points."
It wasn't until the class bell rang that the communication between He Sheng and Ning Chen had to be interrupted.
"It's time to go to class. Let me say this much first. I will talk to you later when I have time."
"Okay, thank you teacher!"
For Cong He Sheng Ning Chen was already very satisfied with what he learned here, and what Ning Chen had to do next was to conquer these courses one by one.
