Mathematics

My tweet for the day from the Math people comes from Thomas Mann who said, "  Occupy yourselves with the study of mathematics.  It is the best remedy against the lusts of the flesh."  Allan should be happy to know that I'm diligently studying mathematics; I'm going to campus today to spread out and finish my reliability midterm.  I've saved the most challenging question to finish last..."Prove that the exponential probability distribution function is the only underlying distribution in the universe that has a constant failure rate."  After finishing the midterm I have to update my Matlab computer program to reflect changes for my Ant Colony algorithm, write a short paper about the Cloud and read the reliability chapter about the renewal process and availability.  My weekend is filled with mathematics.
