I want to become an erudite or atleast study all the basics of mathematics, logic and hard sciences such as physics and chemistry. I'm thinking of going to khan academy, learn all the highschool stuff there and proceed to read college level textbooks before I enter college(I am grade 10, 18 y/o student)

I've been teaching myself mathematics for almost 1 year now and have covered majority of algebra(I'm using an algebra textbook, I'm not sure if I should just use khan academy) but mathematics is not enough. I want to have extensive experience on problem solving in general.

Any tips? study program that you use etc, experience or overall any advice will be appreciated.

Jannies, this is related because I'm asking for recs about learning how to study math and science and this is the most relevant board for that.

I read that Sweden turns their garbage into energy to be used for fuel. Why don't other countries do this too?

Paging all linguists... this test says the theoretical maximum score is 200. Yet, after millions of submitted answers, the maximum score someone received is 109. What can you get?

"God of the gaps" = God, but scientists haven't found It yet, and they probably never will because the world will end, eventually, because of us. Just like we were born, there will be an end, and for the supraorganism.

Now that the science is settled there is nothing else we can do now but wait till our own demise.

I would tell you to repent, but It is what It is.

Hello frens,
I did an economics meme degree about 2 years ago, and the most math I have ever done in a course had to do with basic calculus, linear algebra and basic least-squares regressions.
Since last year I have gotten an interest in computer programming, and I'm finding that I'm very often facing a roadblock in my projects because of a lack of a strong mathematical foundation. I can only go so far until I need to basically copy and paste some dude's work from Stack Overflow.

I considered seriously learning math through a combination of YouTube lectures, textbooks and problems. I can't afford college right now so this is the best I have. Is it possible to teach my-self this way?

I think what I would like to start with is the basics, so I picked up a typical year 1 course list for a math degree (includes number theory, foundations, group theory, etc.) and will be going through that. Any advice you guys can give me?
Much appreciated and thank you.

I have been studying about bats and bat exploitation throughout social media in Asia for the past two years, ask me some questions.

Why are Mathematicians always so well-dressed?

Curious as to how certain irrationals called "schizophrenic numbers" can present long (theoretically infinitely long) repeating (i.e. clearly non random) patterns


"For any positive integer n let
f(n) denote the integer given by the recurrence

f(n) = 10 f(n-1) + n

with the initial value f(0) = 0. Thus we have f(1)=1, f(2)=12,
f(3)=123, and so on. The square roots of f(n) for odd integers
n give a persistent pattern, appearng to be rational for periods,
and then disintegrating into irrationality. This is illustrated
by the first 500 digits of sqrt[f(49)] "

what the fuck

Scientifically speaking, go fuck yourself

What is your schedule like sci?
