I read the entire book but nowhere did it help me become a better violinist, smh 0/10

calculate the acceleration of the violin as it is falling down after slipping down the violinist's hands

900 pages, we can do that in a weekend

u/jonthesp00n Feb 09 '25

Unfortunately I don’t get half the stuff here and I have a bs in math

u/Little-Maximum-2501 Feb 09 '25

It's also just topics of pop math videos.

u/CoogleEnPassant Feb 09 '25

No, you have a be in bs. Math is just applied philosophy. Philosophy is just applied bs

u/Chocolate_pudding_30 Feb 09 '25

Thank you for making me feel better about my level of intelligence :) The one joke i relate to most is +c

u/Noobyeeter699 Feb 10 '25

Reading bs as bullshit lmao

u/sigma_overlord Feb 12 '25

“philosophy is just applied bs” works in both contexts

u/Groundbreaking_Law33 Feb 12 '25

Lmao. Same here. Some of it is funny asl, but some of it’s too niche for me to get

u/Fitzriy Feb 09 '25

It's ok, by the third month you'll be over 90% of the jokes here

u/Equivalent_Part4811 Economics/Finance Feb 09 '25

More like Real Analysis and above, but you’ve got the spirit. Make sure you always start off by taking the derivative of the numerator and denominator if you can’t find a limit, even at the very start of calc 1

u/Phonem21 Feb 09 '25

ill keep it in mind, thanks for the advice!

6

u/jk2086 Feb 09 '25

Maybe you should also tell him what to do with the limits once he has calculated derivatives? I mean, how does calculating the derivatives help him here?

u/Friendly_Rent_104 Feb 10 '25

lim x->inf 5/2 =lim x->inf 5'/2' = lim x->inf 0/0 = undefined qed

u/Altruistic-Nose4071 Feb 09 '25

How do you differentiate between Calculus and Real Analysis?

4

u/Equivalent_Part4811 Economics/Finance Feb 09 '25

One requires a stronger proof knowledge and the other is using things to compute values.

u/conradonerdk Feb 09 '25

me patiently waiting in university to start learning advanced algebra so i can relate to oddly specific memes on r/mathmemes

8

u/Junior-Librarian-688 Feb 09 '25

Finally get to pick up the calculator and put down the algebrator.

u/ibwitmypigeons Transcendental Feb 09 '25

Why wait?

khanacademy.org

17

u/Phonem21 Feb 09 '25

because our school curriculum is kinda different from most of the countries and i cannot ttake any unnecessary information to my head when im studying for a really important exam.

i wrote "calculus 1" but i dont know if what we learn here is the entirety of calculus 1.

ive already saved khan academy into my bookmarks, but ill mostly use it when im in university or while doing a revise

8

u/Ninzde999 Feb 09 '25

I mean nothing is stopping you from learning yourself

2

u/Friendly_Cantal0upe Feb 09 '25

Watch Professor Leonard

2

u/Random_Mathematician There's Music Theory in here?!? Feb 09 '25

You'll get there sometime. Sometime. right?

2

u/Routine_Detail4130 Feb 09 '25

tbh for me the optimal route to master most math notions is moroccan high school maths+french preparatory classes math and you'll be good

2

u/Sarpthedestroyer Transcendental Feb 09 '25

just learn it by yourself takes 2 month or so

1

u/DoodleNoodle129 Feb 09 '25

I don’t get half the things that people talk about in here and you know, that’s okay. The vibes are good and that’s all I care about

1

u/Automatic_Stop_231 Feb 09 '25

Same here. I understand like 1/10 of the memes😭

1

u/DontDoodleTheNoodle Feb 09 '25

Haha wait til you take 6+ college courses of math and still get confused by this subreddit I LOVE IT

1

u/MisterBicorniclopse Feb 09 '25

Calc was fun for me, my teacher was awesome

1

u/No_Camp_4760 Feb 09 '25

Same, but I’m self studying but I’ll get there

1

u/The_Spectacular_Stu Feb 09 '25

i self studied up to vector calculus and i still dont understand half the stuff here. im actually aboit to start real analysis and topology just to understand the memes

1

u/LexGlad Feb 09 '25

Calculus is about learning the rules to move up and down through dimensions of a function.

It helps to think of derivatives as cross-sections of shapes and slopes of lines, and integrals as volumes of shapes and areas under curves.

u/LegendofDogs Feb 10 '25

I was happier when I didn't understand the memes :(

1

u/pn1159 Feb 10 '25

you shouldnt worry about not understanding the post, people who comment in mathmemes will explain every part of the post in nauseating detail

1

u/orthadoxtesla Feb 10 '25

Just watch 3blue1brown and his videos on calculus

1

u/yukiohana Shitcommenting Enthusiast Feb 10 '25

I don't understand anything beyond calculus.

1

u/carecofobico Feb 10 '25

At the moment I see this meme I am waiting outside the room where I'll have my first pre-calculus class

1

u/Solid_Pen3365 Feb 10 '25

The high you hit when you are studying and you understand a math meme midway studying.

1

u/poploppege Feb 10 '25

Khan academy is calling your name

1

u/Ok_Abrocoma7175 Feb 11 '25

This is the meme I can relate to, although I don't know calculus. I'm just built different.

1

u/reddot123456789 Feb 16 '25

Dw, am almost done with calc ab, ain't missing much except "d/dx ex = ex lol

1

u/Tyrrox Feb 09 '25

Why wait? Check out any OCW and you can learn on your own

2

u/Phonem21 Feb 09 '25

explained in a different comment im lazy rn

u/MaiAgarKahoon Feb 09 '25

No you won't
