  Trig is not bad at all. Couple dozen rules to memorize and you’re golden.

  Now Calculus… Integrals…

    The worst part of calc was honestly the rude awakening that my algebra skills needed woooork

      Totally agree. The general concept of calculus is pretty straightforward. The implementation of calculus is an exercise of algebra.

    Calculus is intuitive and sexy. Linear algebra, on the other hand…

      I love linear algebra! It’s one of the coolest and most satisfying maths (for me personally)

      Quoting a relatively famous mathematician, linear algebra is one of the few branches of math we’ve really truly understood. It’s very, very well behaved

      Hard disagree. Linear algebra can make pretty shapes and colors from a bunch of vertices, while calculus can make you want to quit school and become a plumber.

      I have learned linear algebra in a few different contexts now, and each one I learned made it easier. When I first learned it, it was in a pure maths context and I found it tricky. It began to make more sense in university, when I learned it in the context of x-ray crystallography. I think more so than most topics, linear algebra really needs the context of it’s usefulness for it to really make sense, but also, I think I’d have struggled with the x-ray crystallography if I hadn’t already got a grounding in linear algebra from a pure maths angle.

      Number Theory can fuck right off.

      Linear algebra? What about liminal algebra

      Linear algebra was so much easier. It’s just vectors

  Well, fuck the idea of moral sin as well! I don’t care about it either.
