Therefore, you’ll be taking AP Chemistry, AP Physics, and AP Calculus, in addition to coding classes (codemonkey) or robotics as extracurricular activities. Although the particular STEM classes you’ll take differ based on class availability at your school, you’ll need to enroll in the most specified track.

For that was a time when the concepts of computing were first being worked out—and through approaches like cybernetics and the nascent area of artificial intelligence, people started exploring the broader scientific implications of computational ideas. It’s a bit like chemistry where one explores properties of some particular molecule.

It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus). In 2015 Ed told me a nice story about his time at Caltech: In 1952–53, I was a student in Linus Pauling’s class where he lectured Freshman Chemistry at Caltech. But how can one work out the n ∞ case?
