How to Learn Maths for Data Science and Programming

Here I share my tips for learning Math, but these tips will work for other subjects too! But definitely do not study with me!

thanks for giving me a cameo!!
PS Math is awesome!

I didn't pay much attention at school as a kid, which meant that I chose to learn maths concepts for developing video games in my hobby time. Sure, most of the mathematics is taken care of in engines but I hated not knowing a lot of what was going on under the hood, especially when it comes to Physics.

Seeing as I'm really just a gameplay programmer, I have been putting all my efforts into learning Physics and trig and although it was a little bit of a struggle at first, I've made a surreal amount of progress since and I'm loving Physics. Never thought I'd say that, after years of not liking maths.

Really good video.

So true! Procrastination is our biggest foe.

Current motivation for learning: So that I can afford a place of my own and have a designated study area without any distractions...

Your tips are so relevant and helpful. I like almost all the content on your channel. Thanks.

I have to say I'm a fan of the new format of your videos, keep up the good work!

You have an amazing house !! :o I love the huge book shelves!

Hah, you're not actually talking over your phone at 5:10, there's YouTube on the screen. Gotcha!

And you thought you could fool us that easily :-P

[marisss]

That's exactly me now😂😂😂 YouTube binging than studying 😁😁

[alexcipriani]

wtf man you distracted me from my statistics study 😂

[anyzzas]

Where do you solve math problems for practice? Is it books or online resources?

[yashrajvanshi]

You're the best and have the understanding of practical learning.

[ozgeozcelik]

yeah YouTube wormhole is the ultimate destination for the master procrastinator

[nazariistarikov]

So what have I understood?
I should forget about distractions, believe my forces and the main - solve certain mathematical issues. And if I will perform that, I will have the chances to be a professional.
But the first 2 items I knew before.

Math is the only subject in college that triggers very negative and suicidal thoughts in me. I can do math at home but it's next to impossible to do math in a class setting. I go into class with the best intentions but i can't get past the first hour without extreme panic.
I failed math class twice cause i didn't attend. For each class you do not attend, you get a minus 5 on your exam. Missing 4 classes = 0 on exam. It's not that i'm not interested, it's that math in this particular setting causes me to be extremely anxious where i'd happily choose a bullet than to be there. There is nothing logical about my fear but yet, i can't get rid of it.

Recientemente empecé a ver tus videos ¡Me encantan! Son muy útiles aprendo sobre AI e inglés lol.
Your videos are awesome!

[EpicGT]

Is there an place you could point me at to learn all the mathematics needed for Data Science and machine learning?

Like courses etc.

Thank you!

So true thanks that was really helpful

I was pretty good at math in High School, but I never use most of it beyond basic adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. I use a little algebra, but not much. Anyways, I never got a good explanation for what algebra, calculus, and other types of higher level math is used for. I kind of know some of the professions use it a lot, but how is the higher math used? I never liked math that much (even though I was good at it) because I didn't have a use for it. Do I need to learn higher math for anything outside of a career?

I'm doing the BSc Mathematics and Physics, it's an interesting course!
