I love questions! The more the better! ( as long as they're not too personal lol)
My parents teached me the basics when I was a kid. English, maths, etc, etc. My mum taught most of the essential formal stuff and also some informal. Since my Dad mainly just taught me miscellaneous stuff, that was more informal.
If I grasped anything perhaps better than my parents (perhaps). Maybe it was probability. I am not very good at maths at all. But I seem to have bit of a general sense or feel for probability. I found it very easy when I was young to grasp that if a dice lands on a 6 10 times in a row that of course in no way increasing the likelihood that it will happen again. And if it doesn't land on a 6 after a 100 throws. It of course doesn't change the likelihood at all. to get a 6 on the dice (or any other of the numbers on a 6-sided dice). The chance is always 1/6. Not counting how you through it and the distance etc. Which is pretty irrelevant since if you roll a dice properly its extremely hard to get it to go on what you want! Its practically random. But not 100%. Just like even RNG aren't 100% random. They do have a pattern. They're just basically so close to random that you might as well say they are random. Hence the name "random number generators". It simulates randomness.
I think?
Anyway......I don't know if I'm that formally smart
.
Like some people think I'm really clever. Others think I'm really stupid. And others somewhere in-between :p
But you could say that about/for a lot of people couldn't you?
I also did a computer maintenance course. I got over 95% ( can't remember if it was 95, 96, 97 or 98 (it wasn't 99 or 100 but it was at least 95)).
But I forgot the whole thing and couldn't do any of it...
I learnt from the books and computers I was studying it on. But I couldn't remember a thing........actually I think I remembered a FEW things. But I can't remember them now thats for sure. All I can remember now is one thing - despite the fact you should be careful with video cards. You shouldn't be TOO careful because they do tend to take quite a lot of pushing to get them to fit)....BUT...I didn't even learn that fact from the course!
