The Most Underrated Computer Science Career: Quantitative Analysis

STEMe

In short, the stock market is a physical or virtual marketplace in which shares of a company are traded between individuals or companies for monetary value. Quantitative traders routinely use highly complex mathematics, such as stochastic calculus, linear algebra, differential equations, and discrete mathematics to create these models.

Even beyond Physics: Introducing Multicomputation as a Fourth General Paradigm for Theoretical Science

Stephen Wolfram

One might have thought it was already exciting enough for our Physics Project to be showing a path to a fundamental theory of physics and a fundamental description of how our physical universe works. Despite this, however, fundamental physics always seemed to resist its advance. The Path to a New Paradigm.

Remembering the Improbable Life of Ed Fredkin (1934–2023) and His World of Ideas and Stories

Stephen Wolfram

Indeed, so confident was he of his programming prowess that he became convinced that he should in effect be able to write a program for the universe—and make all of physics into a programming problem. 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).

Career Exploration: Mathematics

PCS Edventures

Calculus , which calculates rates of change and infinites. Science, technology, engineering and arts careers often rely upon at least one of these math specializations, so jobs with a math focus are often talked about under the other STEAM categories. (The Algebra , which incorporates unknown variables into arithmetic equations.

And so being able to just get some great people at the table, some of the amazing sponsors that we have, and I would say the successes have really been at this point, having students who worked with us, you know, back in 2016 to now see them in college and pursuing computer science. I’m a prospective computer science major there.”
