How much do I hate Calculus?

I decided that using Newton's Method to approximate a root correct to 6 decimal places for my Calculus homework is FAR EASIER AND QUICKER if I do it in Java.

And it's prettier too, just look at those colors!

I love how they teach you the long way to do calc, then say here are some forumula you can use to do the same thing, oh and they take about 1/5 of the steps.

If you have 2 red apples and 3 green apples, and then eat one apple, how many apples do you have?

LOL - the colors are autoformatted that way, generally based on type, and specific to the color scheme I use in the editor that I program in.

You have DPS?

I thought only sk's hit nukes, dots, weapons, range weapons and abilities like bards to pretend we have dps, like the little kids in the arcade who never put a quarter in the game, but play it anyway.
