I'm Max, and I'm currently an HMC senior majoring in both Physics and Computer Science. I'm taking the class because fluid dynamics is super-cool! And there's a pretty high chance I'll be using a lot of this stuff in grad school. I'd like to come out of this class with a much better understanding of tensors and how to use them - I never felt like I completely got them when taking GR, or when we used the Maxwell stress tensor in Big E&M, so I'm looking forward to a more in-depth treatment of them. My favorite two equations are the Lorentz transformations. These two go together; I couldn't pick just one, and I didn't want to convert them to a single equation that's less understandable.
A fun fact about me is that I've gotten my computer to beat expert minesweeper in 41 seconds without cheating :)
