great! now enjoy the rest of the break.

come gentle night. come loving black browed night
give me my romeo. and when he shall die
take him and cut him out in little stars
and he will make the face of heaven so fine
that all will be in love with night
and pay no worship to the garish sun. william shakespeare

Registered for the next series of classes.

I know I can do the networking thing, and the math class is not being
taught by He Who Is Not Worth Being Mentioned...

A change in arrangements -- one class per day, five days a week -- 10 ayem to 1130 or so,
every day. A regular schedule, and time to concentrate daily on a single subject -- generally speaking, weekends off,
so no putting things off if I want some 'me' time.

Let's see if I can get my head screwed on a few threads tighter...

Well, w're heavily into the educational routine...
Am discovering the advantages of admitting I don't know it all...have been availing myself of the math lab at school (have to note a couple of online resources they offer that
follow exactly the textbook -- they offer more and more items for practice), a friend of mine (a Generous Motors engineer) sat with me for an hour working some function (as in, f(x))
protocols, and our own near'n'dear to my heart code monkey, setting me on the straight and narrow path about step functions and graphs thereof.
Sometimes it takes the "mule + 2x4" protocol to get me to see thngs...but it eventually works.

you're very welcome, cid. however, you already knew the solution. i merely helped you see it.
