I think gamedev or I guess graphics programming, visualize maths pretty well. I literally quit high school because I could never make any progress in several areas, including math class. But once I read/watch more about gamedev, programming, graphics programming on my own, I got to understand many mathematical terminologies better than I have ever been taught in any school.
Freya is a really good programming maths communicator so it doesn't surprise me
Not knowing about Splines before
Feeling like understanding Splines afterwards 🥰
wow I wish we learned this kind of stuff in school
I don't know her, so maybe my question is stupid, but does she explain math without using code? I, honestly, am too stupid to programing, I don't understand it. I understand summary, not the second one
i still don't understand but thanks
Wouldn't reducer be more precise?
I think this is pretty much the imperative equivalent of foldl (\acc i -> acc + 3*i) 0 [1..4]
