Data Science Internship
at Fastenal
Jonathan Cadwell
 _______________________________________

I will be giving a talk about my internship at Fastenal. The talk will cover the different responsibilities I had as a part time employee. I will talk about what I learned at school and how it helped me in the business world. I will go over a few of the side projects I worked on. Then I will go over automation in the workplace. This will be shown using an excel macro I created to help me save time during the work week. Finally, I will talk about the skills my internship helped me develop, and how it helped me start a career.
 
Theorems on p-adic
Continued Fractions
Le Tang
_______________________________________

One of the major results for continued fractions is the Stern-Stolz Theorem that relates the divergence of the continued fraction to the convergence of the associated series. In this presentation, we review the geometric approach by Beardon and Short who reproved the Stern-Stolz Theorem (and other important convergence theorems for continued fractions) by treating continued fractions as a sequence of Möbius transformations on the complex plane. Then these methods are extended to prove the analogous theorem in the complete p-adic field ℂp.




Refreshments served beforehand in Math/Stat Student Lounge (Gild 135).
