How IC chips are made??

[OPPAINTER]

I am looking for good links to find out how IC chips are constructed. Like how do you stick 4000000 transisters in a little CPU and make them work:D
I have to do a research paper so any links to the construction of IC chips would be great help.

Thanks,
OPP:)

Anytime OP! :)

Heres another one for you Gooch :)

I need to do a report about trigonometry. Yes a report, I missed a test and this is how I can make it up:D

I've never even done the math before so I need info on it. Like what the hell is used for in the Real World and stuff like that.
Any links would be cool, I havn't looked for any yet myself but I figuer you did good on the last one I might as well give you another assingment:D

Thanks,
OPP

Heh well my name isn't Gooch but thought I might make a suggestion. Not sure where you're going to school-wise OPP but usually school libraries will have copies of textbooks. It's been a few years since my last trig course (man was that stuff boring :p) so I don't remember any titles off hand but if you find any Math Analysis/Trig textbooks, you'll find those things have TONS of information on real world uses of the subjects they cover. Like with my old textbook for example, I remember every section (around 200 sections total) started with a little blurb on real world applications. I used to read those when I got bored of listening to the old teach'.

Good luck,
Leo :)

The Library:D
That sounds like work:D Ecxellent advise though my friend, I guess I will have to resort to this if I can't get the info on the web.

Thanks Leo,

Got a lot of hits with a "uses for trigonometry" google search. Surveying, a tool for astronemers, etc.

Good deal, I think I'll start there, thanks :)
