      @@stereographicdonut This is just wrong. Any undergraduate calculus textbook has lots of proofs, and challenge problems that go beyond just mere calculation. One problem is finding the integral of e^-x^2. Computation, but takes clever set up. Same with differential equations; lots are just computation but it goes far beyond that. Lumping that with the same as pre-algebra is just stupid.
      I self taught myself math before I went to college, and I started with calculus, and also started as a 'Wizard,' according to this guy. I have graduate level texts also on quantum mechanics, electromagnetism and general relativity.

    As someone who is primarily self-taught in higher mathematics, I actually started off in the Magician phase with "Book of Proof" and then immediately jumped into Warlock-level texts (e.g., Spivak, Munkres, Loomis and Sternberg, etc.). Because of this, I often (counterintuitively) find myself having an easier time wrapping my brain around the more abstract portions of advanced topics, while becoming instantly lost the moment the author(s) start applying basic trig functions and other such Apprentice-level topics lol

    You're an inspiration. I'm 44, returning to school for the first time since 1996. I was always good at math and I've found the passion I was had is back. I'm loving it but I am still an apprentice. I've been practicing on Khan Academy, for 2 years and I am taking classes to improve my GED scores to enter Math 112 when I start college, hopefully this fall. I'm not sure if im an intermediate at algebra or barely coming out of beginner. I practice daily and I sleep and eat thinking of math. I am entering the realm of teaching myself precalculus next. I passed my elementary Algebra class last term with n a+ (GED ready classes) but I want to be proficient with equations where I find b in y=5mx+7b. Any recommendations on what areas I should focus on please?

      Equation of a straight line, y = mx + b... (m) = gradient of the slope, (b) = y intercept / the place where the straight line crosses the y axis, i hope this helps on a basic level. Also I'd suggest using desmos graphing calculator and putting in variants of y = mx + b.

      I would be able to build and understand any graph given an equation. Continuous and cases of asymptotes. Logs and exponentials come up often in all your classes past pre-cal and trig. Know those like the back of your hand to be able to use as a tool. Finding zeros, minima, maxima, it’s all worth learning and will help in your courses after. Very important course.

    • @LaithMMA
      @LaithMMA Год назад +9

      @@thetenrings Hi, in order to be able to master topics quickly is to always have a very solid foundation. For example, when one wants to achieve mastery of calc 1,2 and 3 they must have a solid background in Algebra. And if one wants to learn Differential equations, they must have a solid foundation in Algebra and Calculus. This helps eliminate many problems and can help you understand concepts a lot easier. In order to be able to study Topology for example, one must have a solid foundation in proofs. And whenever you face issues or trouble in understanding a certain topic, always go to different sources (Books, RUclips, etc) this helps providing a better understanding of the topic from more than one perspective, which will lead to an overall better understanding of the topic 👍
      Remember, you may face setbacks and sometimes you may think that you can’t understand a certain topic, my advice is to never give up and stay strong 💪👍👍

      Im a masochist so, Im mathing it out and if you give each book a week window, (which may expand of course as multiple book readings bleed into each other by catagory but treat as an average) you could power through these all very effectively in about.... 1.4~ years. So just under a year and a half. Very doable if you spend a day or week at the start, or a day every month reevaluating your learning system, and learning prep. And this is while giving it room to breath for other things. My suspicion though is there is also a time scale. The first level taking about maybe a week all in all if you power through it, and you could compress the proof training arch to maybe a month if you scedual in time for more practice and bleed it into the 3rd level. I wonder what it takes to get to Level 5?

I don't want to make myself sound better than I am because I might start to do very poorly on this math. However, so far, I've gotten probably 93 percent of the book correct. But I'm only on chapter 1😁.I'm so happy & proud that I have been able to do this math so far. I think his precalculus is the perfect math book.. Math is fantastic. P.S. I just ordered the book Mathematical Ideas and How To Read & Do Proofs that I saw in the video

    That was a very good journey from literally high school mathematics to just short of actual research level mathematics (1st and second year grad). Good assortment and amazed how books vary considerably in difficulty which is always interesting since the topics are very similar and what is proved is the same; however, the prose and motivation makes it easier to use one book over another. High 3 or low 4 is where I am.

    I'm either level 3 or 4. Finished undergrad years ago. Took me 5 classes with 1 professor to learn to write proofs. Soon after I took a Logic class and crushed it hard! Felt good. I have my own library of obscure math books I try to learn from. Also books on learning theory. Among other things.
    Spent the last decade working as a professional math tutor for all grade levels young and old. Which is awesome as a constant review for me. Deepening my understanding in all undergrad math topics.
    My favorite part has been noting down interesting problems the students bring to me and later I either write/derive a proof/formula for the concept that students would not understand, but that technically could do the entire assignment for them if only they were at my level and knew how to drag/drop formulas in microsoft excel, or I would make a dynamically updating model of that problem on Desmos (freaking love Desmos). I often use them to visually show the students how consistent all the details are together.
    I've made many models on Desmos that are basically diagrams and calculators for obscure types of problems. I do this for fun. I'd like to be paid for it (I use it for work but im not required to). But math modeling jobs don't really exist without having experience in 100 non-math areas I couldn't care less about. Generic business stuff.
    Im not interested in teaching, but my work has been amazingly rewarding in keeping my skills sharp and sharing my passion with people. Meanwhile, I continue to receive automated rejection letters for all the entry level Analyst jobs I apply to because there's just too much competition that getting a simple salary job is a lottery.

    Too many topics and too many books.
    Just study analysis (all of it, from start to finish, real, complex, whatever analysis) and linear algebra. Do it by using books with rigorous proofs.
    Concentrate on proofs more than exercises. Understand every step. Repeat them, reflect on them. Do tons of proofs and just a few simple exercises to get the idea. Think! Arrive at the end.
    Once you master all the proofs of such topics, you'll have a super solid grasp of the theory and the big picture under your belt. Getting good at more complex exercises or switching to another subject (whatever you're interested in, like probability and statistics for example) will be almost a breeze.
    But you need to get good in analysis and linear algebra. Those are the real bases, they represent the most useful mathematics and they are hard subjects.
    When you really master them, you can say you're good at math.. Sort of half of or even 3/4 of a mathematician..

    Well, here is my story: I am currently finishing my degree, I am in the last semester of Civil Engineering and throughout my degree I have really liked mathematics and I have done very well in the mathematics subjects that any engineer takes (differential calculus, integral calculus, differential equations, etc). Lately I have been very motivated to do a master's degree in applied mathematics or quantitative finance (It's funny because I'm about to be a Civil Engineer but I want really do different things with my life and I have a different prospect about what I would like to work in), I would like to be able to do it in mathematics but it scares me since I feel that I do not have the mathematical maturity and the foundations to do a master's degree in mathematics (because I come from an engineering degree), in fact, I am currently taking along two subjects from the master's degree in applied mathematics at my university: Advanced Calculus and Nonlinear Numerical Optimization (I'm not in the masters yet but I'm taking those courses as electives), in Advanced Calculus I think I'm doing very well, I was very afraid since it's a prove everything subject and we see topics like introduction to real analysis, basic topology, complex numbers, ... and I had never seen any subject of this type previously and full focused in writing proofs and that kind of stuff.
    My idea is to finish and get my Bachelor's degree and then do a master's degree in Applied Mathematics or Quant Finance, because I would like to be part of the front desk of a Hedge Fund or get a decent job related with math in Wall Street because I have becoming very passionate about trading in the recent years and I want to do it right, i.e., from a mathematical perspective and I know that these big companies and hedge funds like to hire people from master's degrees in mathematics or PhD's in math or physics. And I'm not wanting to do a masters because of that, I really want to do the master because I really like math and I enjoy it, as you said: "You choose the mathematics life because you just enjoy the subject; you have to enjoy the subject or else it's just going to eat you alive" and I have felt that while studying for the Advanced Calculus subject because I have spent a lot of hours trying to understand things and adapting to thinking on a different way that I was used to.
    I'm planning to start admission process in these universities:
    * Stony Brook University
    * Baruch College
    * New York University
    * Rutgers University
    Hopefully I get admitted to one of that and start my program in QF Finance/Applied Math. If anyone can give me some advice on which master/university is more appropriate for what I want to do with my life I will really appreciate that! Sorry for the very long comment but I just feel that there are others that could be in the same situation than me.

      I'm in a similar situation but with a different skill-set. I'm more of a reader and writer and frankly have always hated math but trading (with fairly good success) makes me very VERY interested in progressing in my mathematical knowledge and perhaps working at a bank (I always wanted to work in Wall Street as well but realizing my grades and upbringing would probably not bode well for that I figure any exposure to institutional trading or money management would be just what I need to get closer to what I have always wanted). After changing my majors around I have been very reluctant to continue studying finance or engineering because of my weaknesses in mathematics and just wishing I could have the brain of my tutor. Just thought I would share my struggle and juxtapose it with your post here above. As a lowley level 1 novice, which struggles with basic multiplication and fractions

    Regarding geometry, I can highly recommend Elementary Geometry for College Students by Daniel C. Alexander, Geralyn M. Koeberlein.
