Hello makkals,
I always wanted to learn Machine learning in the right way. I initially read about types of ML algorithms and even built some projects in college. But I don’t have a knowledge about how things internally work. In ML, as per my knowledge, every thing boils down to mathematics. And I’m super bad at that.
I completed Linear algebra May last year. And was about to start Calculus. But I ended up pausing the math till now. Yeah, classic Hemath!
But got the energy to start Calculus. Started watching the 3Blue1Brown’s Essence of calculus playlist. This is one of the great contents for Calculus in the internet. Previously I followed the same channel for Linear Algebra.
I had to watch the first video 2 times to somewhat understand the concept of calculus. But still after that, I didn’t understand much, because there is basically a lot to process in mind. And my brain is just a single-threaded processor when it comes to mathematics, it can’t handle multiple things at once.
However after those couple of watches, I had a chat with ChatGPT. Boy-oh-boy, it clarified me in a way that I would understand. All of a sudden, I understood calculus!
I definitely need to write a post explaining what is calculus in my own terms. Putting it in my todo list for now.
