Introducing the dummy function was a neat technique, it really helped prove the relation in a more technical way that's not too complex nor too simplified.
Thank You

Awesome tutorial. Do you have for the commutator of position and Hamiltonian?

So if you switch the order of the operators in the communtator, it changes the sign of the answer?

Hi there, Isn't the momentum operator -i*hbar d/dx? i dont understand how -i becomes 1/i. Thankyoufor your time :)

isn't the momentum operator -i h (bar) not i/h (bar)?
