Does it make sense to say?
I'm writing a poem and came across these two lines.
Grey skies pouring rain
Leaves' tears float about
Does it make sense to say the "tears", symbolized by the rain, are "floating" on the leaf?
Basically I'm trying to create an image of a rainy day in fall where the picture is temporarily zoomed in onto the water droplets on the leaves.
Thanks

As humans get more knowledgable, there will be more stuff for students to learn.
So for example, will all students eventually learn Calculus in high school as a new standard?

How do we do this without using a graphing calculator? We are only allowed simple scientific calculators on midterms.
The answer should be in degrees. I think it's around 42.

1 AnswerMathematics8 years agoHow to implement getPrevious() method for double linked list?
We were given the following code from the last assignment to use for singly linked list, but we're supposed to add in a getPrevious() and setPrevious() method. The following code works for the singly linked list as I completed the assignment and got 100%.
I searched online and read my book but couldn't find a solution.
For a singly linked list I would start from the head and iterate until the *getNext() == current* or something of the like. Obviously that beats the purpose of a doubly linked list, so any ideas?
Thanks in advance! =)
