>>12828136>>12828683>Give it to me straight anon, is the lang chart just a meme or will it make me a maths wizard?Lang's Calculus is beyond reproach. It is very very good. The reason we say "Lang is a meme" is because /sci/ has a hardon for bad pedagogy, and recommending bad pedagogy, and Lang isn't that. Lang is, in general, the king of good pedagogy, but his Calculus and Algebra in particular are magnificent.
Here's how you do calculus, this isn't difficult it's what you should do: Read Lang, then other random books, doing the exercises, learn Lagrange's solution to the problem of integration in closed form, then read Abraham Robinson, and you're done, you know the whole thing.
