prerequisites

Because I was "bored," I dumped the course structure of the Physics and Mathematics departments into GraphViz.

Some of the graph seems redundant. For example, math245a requires math135 and math113, but math135 already has math113 as a prerequisite. But checking, this seems that this isn't a bug in your graph, but rather a bug in the math course structure.

Yeah, I tried to eliminate prerequisites that are already present transitively, but I only 'eyeballed' it. It would be pretty easy to write a preprocessor that did that...

GraphViz has pretty nifty support for subgraphs (i.e., a portion of the graph surrounded in a box or a bubble) so I was thinking I might separate topology, analysis, etc.

I don't really know what the purpose is, but somehow it seemed entertaining. (-:
