Precisely. Understanding computers starts with basic electromagnetic theory, proceeds through transistors, gate design, flip flops, Karnaugh mapping, assembly language, and THEN higher level stuff. It's just a machine.

What kind of engineering do you do?

From blue sky to product, that was my job. I developed (past tense) manufacturing processes and equipment for the medical and electronic businesses. It involved chemistry, physics, engineering, design, project management, finance, and construction management and regulatory permitting worldwide. I do habitat restoration as a hobby.

Since then I have written a book proposing a free market regulatory system. I am now getting it reviewed and selling it on a limited basis.

I have to admit that I'm not quite comprehending your method, I think I would need to see a full example laid out. You should really publish this...

Yep. That's another book. I've got a lot of them in me, but I also have commitments and limited capital.

Nope. It's the curriculum. We used algebra to teach arithmetic. By the time they knew their times tables they could multiply polynomials and factor quadratics.

What curiculum are you using?

Got a grandaughter I am going to help with homeschooling and Math and am looking for material!
