Good for calculus, but weak for linear alg. Kahn will prove things, but the proofs won't be motivated in terms of fundumental axioms, so it's just feel like you're going over things that seem like they're obvious for the sake of rigor that achieves not much of anything.

No. Most skills take at least 1 year to reach a late beginner level. That's assuming 4 hours of study every single day. If you didn't start in time, it's pretty much too late. >>16201922

I taught myself the fundamentals of linear algebra solely through the book "Introduction to Linear Algebra" by Strang. There's also a great accompanying lecture series on YouTube: "MIT 18.06SC Linear Algebra" taught by Strang himself.

I'm no math expert but at least this book prepared me well enough for a couple masters' level statistics courses that required linear algebra as a prerequisite.

You don’t need that much time, it should take you like a weekend, assuming you have a 3 digit IQ
Go on YouTube, search for the linear algebra playlist with the most views, and watch them in order.
After each video do a practice problem pencil and paper. This is crucial to help you process and retain the information
Repeat for calculus

Axler is not great. It's not terrible, but it's not my first choice.

I feel like separating into a simple applied book like Lay and then going into Hoffman and Kunze after the first 3-4 chapters of Lay is a better choice.

Linear Algebra and Geometry by Shafarevich/Remizov is also another good choice (Content is old from his lectures, but turned into a book in 2009).

Shafarevich being another elite Russian mathematician... and a noticer too apparently.

If I'm being honest, I really disliked Hoffman and Kunze when I first saw it my junior year in undergrad in the "abstract linear algebra course" I took. Since then I've opened it up a few times and have found it much more delightful and elegant.

Sometimes just giving it time and not having the pressure of needing to understand it quickly for a grade can make you appreciate a classic more.

A community of retards who cannot teach themselves basic linear algebra and calculus, even with the dearth of preexisting resources. I hope that community fails to exist.

If you wanted to learn, you'd just do it. You don't need a band of fellow tards to commiserate with.

I second this, Strang's lectures are the best on linear algebra by far. I didn't even bother with my own university after just a couple of lectures.
