MATH SELF/SUMMER STUDY:

When I was doing professional art I had to take fap breaks. Some of the models where fucking smoking hot in every way imaginable. First I did it to "calm down" but that just made it worse and it became habit.

I'm curious of male doctors have to after seeing a hot patient for a checkup.

This board is SFW, degenerate scum

I'm self studying C++ this summer

Exams and professors opinion of me stopped motivating me years ago. It's not a particularly good source of motivation as out in the real world people don't give a fuck what you know.

I'm reading Maclane. In the chapter on limits.

DAT ASS

So has he reached his limit yet huh?

> not making backups
that's why it was only 2 days.
new computer and such.

>not accumulating multiple copies filled with loose sheets
wat?

I dropped out of being a maths student after being confronted of the harsh reality of nojobslol. I'm self-studying on kahn academy and just got accepted into an engineering program for the coming fall. I'm learning multivariable calculus and am on the article for triple integrals; and look to finish both diffey q and linear algebra by the time the term starts.

>Any recommended methods for not losing focus without the incentive of exams motivating you?
mental illness

she's like a granny baby

hey i'm doing that too. i'm using this and bucky's youtube videos. what are you doing?

Yep, suicide or self-incrimination soon probably.

If you already have found beauty in the subject, then you should not need to ask for motivators. Your curiosity should be enough to keep you studying.

Exactly the same for me

CS sophomore here, concrete maths is planned for this summer

This book

I couldn't get any further in that book than that. Limits are so important, but reading a book entirely on category theory was too much for me. I've taken to reading the corresponding section whenever I come across some categorical notion with which I'm not familiar.

I'm using the summer to learn Java programming
anyone got any suggestions to good books?

I already know Python and MATLAB

Is this book a good one for learning Analysis?

I'm self studying a bit before next fall when I'll be taking a super hard Honors Analysis course. Does anyone else have any experience with this book? I'm planning on working through the whole thing I think.

if you can do rudin, there should be nothing left in undergraduate analysis that can seriously challenge you.

Completely off topic, but, damn, made me lol.

Just scanning the table of contents this seems to be quite basic. If you're prepping for a "super hard" analysis course it might help somewhat if your foundations are very weak but it's not going to be enough.

I'd recommend doing this too, but with one caveat.

Do NOT try to read Rudin by itself. At least get a second reference book that's more friendly (Pugh is very good and covers much of the same stuff), preferably read Rudin in your university library where you can reference as needed.

Rudin is so canonized in math departments that you need to know everything inside it if you want to go further; It's probably what your honors analysis course is using. It also has the best problem sets of any math textbook I've read.

But his proofs are terrible for learning the material and the problems are often bullshit because he doesn't teach you enough to do them. So it needs a supplementary text.

Im gonna study calculus for the first time from spivak. I have all the pre requisites and im not gonna do but sit on my ass for the entire summer so i might as well do something. Im hoping for an enjoyable time thqh

Cucky is shit tier. Just pirate some Lynda.

I do online Uni and once I'm done I'm fucking shutting down the computer and just reading and working. I'm sick of being constantly connected, I want to be like Newton, or a STEM-Wordsworth, siting in the hills, learning shit.

>not accumulating multiple copies filled with loose sheets
>wat?
I think the user is trying to say that you should print off the cleaned up notes and have them in a binder/folder.
Ps. LaTex is love, LaTex is life.

Ooo..I like that. Except I find mistakes in my notes everytime I read them.

I'm an undergraduate who basically memorized baby Rudin for my class, proofs and all. This comment made me pretty happy.

I'm already self-studying Physics and Math, What's a good book for self-studying Chemistry?
Maybe the Whitten? or Chang?

I'm following this ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/18-01-single-variable-calculus-fall-2006/video-lectures/

It's good for someone like me who only knows algebra.

What would be good high school books to get strong foundations on functions and trigonometry?

I'm horribly bad at factoring aswell, any good books with many examples and/or good questions w/ answers you guys would recommend?

read the sticky

Lel, I am in the EXACT same situation.

This summer I'm planning to do a project for extra credit points.

Watch the wildtrig series on YouTube.
Its the only intuitive explanation out there

>but his proofs are terrible for learning the material and the problems are often bullshit because he doesn't teach you enough to do them. So it needs a supplementary text.

I love watching sponges squirm when a textbook doesn't spoon feed them answers. You people always think you're smarter than everyone but when something isn't spelled out word for word you get upset and throw a fit.

Try looking up the definition of "problem" and you might realize why Rudin was hard for you- it had nothing to do with it being "terrible for learning". You're literally just a baby who doesn't like to think about things and doesn't know how to figure things out by himself. God I love watching you people get frustrated.

P.S. Rudin was fun for me- know why? I actually enjoy learning things.

>rudinbabbies are this far in denial

I have to agree with this. Everyone thinks I'm autistic because I study math outside of class. Joke's on them because I get that sweet tutoring money because they forget their shit over the summer while I'm miles ahead and they have to come back to me for help.

>I prefer when books don't teach me
There's a weird attitude here that having somebody explain something to you is bad, like you're a better person for coming up with every idea you've ever had. The point of reading a textbook is to learn something, and there's no reason to impose artificial difficulty on to that. Not that difficult exercises are a bad thing, but supplementary texts are almost always a great idea.

100% chance you didn't use rudin for learning alone and are just memeing

Oh yes, he's memeing hard.

Thank you, I'll check.
