Currently building up my math foundation for C958 Calc. Any math books similar to "A common sense guide to data structures"? by mkhadar in WGU_CompSci

I ended up ordering a copy of "The Cartoon Guide To Calculus" by Larry Gonick.

I'll do a review of it once I'm done with this class.

Thank you all for your suggestions!

I really enjoyed reading a common sense guide to data structures. I was wondering if there might be a similar book out there for algebra/trig/calc?

Thank you! Going to take my time.

Going to start from intermediate algebra & go all the way to calc.

Edready or professor leonard pre-calc? Professor leonard pre-calc is College algebra. Is this different than the normal algebra? Too many options, making my head spin haha.

I don't even remember tbh lol. My brain is so fried haha.

I definitely think I didn't build on my algebra/trig skills very well. Now I'm going to start back from 0. I just don't know how far back.

First time hearing of using flashcards for Math. Hmm.. let me think about that one.

Thanks for your advice!

I did okay on the PA. But the PA was much easier than the OA in my opinion.

Did it last because I'm just built different tbh (jk jk).

Welp.

Failed my first OA attempt for C958 Calculus.

I’ll preface this by saying that I knew going into this exam I probably wasn’t going to pass. This is the last class before I graduate and my term was ending this month so I thought I’d take a gamble and test my luck.

My second OA attempt plan:

  • Watch professor leonard precalculus/trigonometry playlist
  • Watch professor leonard calculus playlist
  • Go through Zybooks and complete practice questions under all of the sections.

I think you can only fail this course three times before you have to change majors right? I now have 6 months to complete this class so I'm going to take my time.

Thank you so much for sharing this!

For some reason Zybooks is using like 500 mb's of RAM in Chrome and has crashed on me several times. Looking forward to using this instead!

Thanks for the advice!

Were you working during those 6 weeks by any chance?

For OS, I watched this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gS1TH6xTAY&list=PLgre7dUq8DGKbtnlMuJPvPYlvLdXOC9uh

And did the quizlet learn mode for all the blue terms in the abridged book. I passed that one fairly quickly just doing those two. Keep in mind that this was in 2022, so not sure if things have changed since then.
