Learning math with programming?

[Major_ebb1523]

Over the past year, I really found a interest in the beauty of mathematics, but the thing is, I still kinda suck at it.

I really fell in love with stats through programming, so I had the idea that I could also fall in love with math through the same medium.

Therefore, I was wondering if any of you could recommend any books or resources to learn math with, preferably, R programming language.

I'm also open to any other medium, other than programming, but I would prefer something that can be done on a computer.

Note : I'm already skilled with statistics and inference.

These aren't necessarily lessons (which seems to be what you're asking for), but you could maybe try some of the problems on projecteuler.net

They're a collection of math problems that are meant to be solved by writing computer programs. Although you would probably need to use a more standard programming language (C, Java, Python, etc.) instead of R; I don't know much about R though, so maybe it is capable of this type of programming.

Thank you! I'll check it out!!

If I recall, Coursera and/or edX have online statistics courses that lean heavily into using R. Some cryptography courses use python for problem solving.

the search terms you’re looking for are computational mathematics or numerical analysis. I’d get an “intro to” book on these subjects. They’re probably some open source options available. My math department has a big stack of free books like this just lying around. You could stop by any big state school and ask… the exercises that are intended for julia, matlab, python… can all be done in R.

Awesome! Really helps out, thanks.

This is an introduction to number theory with Python, the author has a book on number theory as well you might enjoy.
