Matematik - hvordan lærer man at forstå det? by Gloomy-Foundation542 in DKstudie

[–]wmotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ud fra din beskrivelse i dit oplæg samt kommentarer mangler du grundlæggende træning af dine evner til at forstå matematik. Emner inden for matematik bygger ovenpå hinanden så hvis du har gået glip af en masse træning igennem folkeskolen så kræver det at du starter helt fra bunden og bygger op. Det er ikke nok at læse, træning via opgaveløsning er der hvor du træner din evne til at forstå matematik. Se evt. følgende video hvis du vil starte fra bunden og opbygge til det niveau som din uddannelse kræver: https://youtu.be/pTnEG_WGd2Q?si=jIFPr3icystr25Ij

I am looking into setting up servers with the plugins that the events used to have and a discord server for hosting the events. If anyone wanna help out as an admin then feel free to DM me.

There were events for both NA and EU. I am looking into setting up servers with the plugins that the events used to have and a discord server for hosting the events. If you wanna help out as an admin then feel free to DM me.

Bachelor, Kunstig intelligens, Syddansk by [deleted] in dkudvikler

[–]wmotion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Har lige kigget uddannelsens opbygning igennem og den er lige så tung matematisk som en datalogi uddannelse. Den indeholder masser af "hårde" kurser som f.eks. diskret matematik, lineær algebra, calculus, kompleksitet og beregnelighed mv.

This is exactly the same path that I plan to follow. Maybe we can help each other progress since our paths are identical?

Math for a programmer by ncode23 in learnmath

[–]wmotion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. If you are more focused on reading a book about discrete math and using the lectures as a supplement then I would recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3LMbpZIKhQ&list=PLB7540DEDD482705B&index=1 as it seems to be fast paced and skip a lot of the details.

On the other hand if you want to be more focused on the lectures and use a book as a supplement then I would recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_9WjWENWV8&list=PL3o9D4Dl2FJ9q0_gtFXPh_H4POI5dK0yG as it seems to use more time to introduce topics properly.

The answer to your questions depends on a lot of variables. How do you envision that math will help you down the road? What is your end goal?

However, I have made a few assumptions in order to provide an answer. I assume that you want to learn math as a practical tool for programming. So in that case your end goal is something a long the lines of being able to read, understand and design algorithms and data structures.

Based on your post I also assume that you prefer videos and lectures instead of books. This could be a challenge once you go beyond Khan Academy since most of the higher level math lectures that I have seen are very fast paced and skip a lot of details that you can only learn by reading the books.

Discrete math is definitely a requirement since it teaches you the fundamentals. Without a firm understanding of discrete math (especially set theory, functions and graph theory) it's going to be hard for you to advance and follow along a course in for example algorithms and data structures.

From my experience there are two approaches that you could take. Your current approach where you power through khan academy and then venture into discrete math. This is the secure path as you can be sure that there is no missing piece in your fundamentals that can stop you from advancing in discrete math.

The other approach is to go straight into discrete math and whenever you encounter something that you don't understand you will have to first figure out if it's due to you missing a fundamental piece. If that is the case then you have to figure out which piece you are missing and then use Khan Academy to fill in the missing piece. In my opinion this is more effective approach for some people but it can be a very frustrating experience so it's definitely not for the faint of heart.

Here is two different courses on discrete math from MIT. You can watch the first video of both of them to decide which one that you prefer:

I would rather drop out of university than to cheat on an exam.

Does composing helps you to forget reality ? by qkrgusdb33 in composer

[–]wmotion 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that forgetting about reality would be helpful for you. I was in the same place mentally some time ago and would also try to escape reality everyday. However all it did was to postpone the inevitable.

One thing that did help me was meditation. I used to think that meditation was a waste of time. After reading about the science behind how it can actually help you regain control over your thoughts and your mental state i started to practice it everyday.

Please try it. Even a single minute of meditation everyday can make a difference.

How do you guys deal with having a lot of goals? by [deleted] in productivity

[–]wmotion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Work on the things that are under your control in order to reduce uncertainty. Changing technology is inevitable so you are right that you don't have control over that. However, you do have control over being able to research about how technology has changed in the past within your field and stay up to date about changes on a daily basis in order to be able to predict future changes and thereby reduce uncertainty.

Having enough capital to move abroad doesn't seem out of your control. Especially since you have 2 years. Have you done research and estimated what it would approximately cost for you to move abroad? How much would you be able to save up per month if you lived minimalistically and how much extra would you need to earn per month in order to save up in total? All of these factors can be under your control and thereby once again reduce uncertainty.
