    My favorite RUclips channels for learning ODEs are Blackpenredpen, Organic Chemistry Tutor, and Khan Academy. A year ago, I could not solve ODEs. Now I am smashing it. Thanks a lot dude. You're saving me in graduate school.

    The integral of tan(x) really got me! I was so confused why he got ln(sec(x)) whilst I got -ln(cos(x)), but then I realised I can just write it as -1(ln(cos(x))) and then as ln(cos(x))^-1 with the logarithm rules, which gives ln(sec(x)). Glad I caught that, love the videos ❤

    A superb explanation of a lovely technique. It was so good that I paused the video and derived the integration factor from matching terms with the product rule and then, paused again and solved the example DE which, from inspection, was really just cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 = 1 disguised in the form of an ODE.
    To be fair, I studied calculus at uni to third year between 2005-2008, covering methods in solving ODEs and PDEs, but I'd completely forgotten in the interim just how this integrating factor was obtained and to what forms of ODE it could be applied. The way you explained it could scarcely be better and I say that having had several outstanding university lecturers.
    Thank you so much for twenty minutes of pure entertainment and joy. You are an internet treasure.

      Unfortunately people are appointed to University teaching positions on the basis of their formal academic credentials (e.g. degrees, research papers published etc.) and NOT on their teaching ability! It is about time this should be corrected. How? After the completion of every course every professor should be graded from the feedback by students of the course. These grades should be recorded and evaluated by the college. Based on these evaluations the professor's academic career should be decided.

    My teacher: We're going to do linear first order DEs. It's OBVIOUS to everyone that you just need to multiply by this (random term he pulls from his butt) to make this work. So just guess the term that works and do it.
    Blackpenredpen: This is what we're doing and here's why. (Proceeds to actually EXPLAIN why and how he does things.)
    I'm going to need your videos this entire quarter because my teacher sucks and just assumes what is obvious to him is obvious to everyone.

    Seriously, I've taken this class at two different schools, neither of my teachers explained this simple idea of integrating factor's origin. They just gave us the formula and expected us to memorize the process instead of teaching us the reasoning behind the idea.
    I'm pretty sure you saved my grade, something Khan academy couldn't even do. Almost nobody explains this connection/origin

  • @priscilladoran9545
    @priscilladoran9545 3 года назад

    This makes so much sense now!!!! I see what you mean about the final "punchline" part with the deriving/integrating (that really confused me at first).
    So it's like you have your d/dx and the v(x)*y, and to find the derivative, you integrate that piece so it stays as v(x)*y and integrate the right side! And then it's just simplifying to find y. Wowwwwww. This is great. Thank you!
