i feel like if you are qualified in programming but cant do math in your head maybe your brain isnt capable of math,
i know i sound like a doomer or just a cop out but really, you don't know the multiplication table?

i don't i had a hard time memorising it as a kid and cheated by just imagining hands or cubes in my head and grouping them together quick (it stil took me several times longer than my peers) but atleast i passed

for example when i see 108 * 2 i have no idea and have to do this:

8 * 2 = 8 * 1, 8 +2 = 10, 8 -2 =6, 10 + 6 = 16
100 * 2 = 200 + 16 = 216

i dont know any other way and it's super bad cause sometimes i lose track, even worse with subtractions

>aren't capable of math
i passed highschool because i used the formulas and then a calculator to figure out the result after i applied them but i didnt understand what they mean or what im doing at all

please help me

When I was a kid I learned my multiplication tables from Schoolhouse Rock! and I think I had a multiplication table toy that didn't show the answer until you pressed the button. It worked for me. But is doing arithmetic even the most critical thing? Instead go back and learn how some of those formulas work. Maybe start with some of the area and volume formulas from geometry, those are fun.

The sticky should have some useful info. But the key is to try to figure a lot of it out yourself. Start by drawing a rectangle on graph paper and thinking about how you would figure out its area without any formulas. Then try things like right triangles, parallelograms, triangles in general, and trapezoids. Try to derive formulas to find the area in the general case. A useful hint when you're stuck is to try drawing the minimum bounding rectangle for the object. At some point try doing a square whose sides are neither drawn up/down or left/right along the graph paper, but in a diagonal direction, and use that to work out the Pythagorean theorem.

bruteforce it son, u and me both, I was the best at maths @ highschool, imagine the lulz when the top nerd failed the test and I got like a 7, smoking hash on the break
ff now, I can't even algebra or more than 1 digit divisors, it hurts, my plan is to be back like terminator, now that I think about it, IAs can guide me a good deal, good idea me
so now we know

let me enlightened like I was, learn the areas and perimeters of a circumference, then learn the formula of the area and volume of a cylinder, and try to understand what's going on there. they're basically taking the circle and height, that's fucking all, now try to understand the implications of it. it's not much really, but really enlightening

oh come on, it's just math, who cares if the author is a j-
>He was awakened one night by the heavy pounding of fists on the door-the Gestapo was calling. Hitler's men had caught up with him. He was shipped in a cattle car to a concentration camp-one noted for its brutality. The slightest variance from the rules resulted in outrageous forms of punishment. Daily the ranks of the prison were decimated by the ruthlessly random selection of victims for the ovens.
>During his long years in the living hell of the concentration camp, every spare moment was spent on his simplified system of mathematics, devising shortcuts for everything from multiplication to algebra. The corruption and misery, the cries from clammy cells and torture chambers, the stench of ovens, the atrocities, and the constant threat of death, faded as he doggedly computed mathematical combinations-reckoning rules, proving and proving again, then starting over again to make the system even simpler.
>Shortly after Easter in 1944, Trachtenberg learned he was to be executed-the decree had come from above and was no longer speculation or foreboding. Trachtenberg faced the fact, then lost himself in his own world. Calmly he went on working-juggling equations, reckoning formulae, working out rules. He had to get his system finished! To a fellow prisoner, he entrusted his work. He had been in prison almost seven years.
Spoiler: he miraculously gets transferred out to another camp, then escapes in the night with the watchtower guards shooting at him. A great Hollywood plot.

Read basic math by lang, see if you still like math
If you're just interested in party tricks just look into some mental math tricks but besides a few tricks it's largely an exercise in memorization.
You likely have no idea what math really is.

>multiplication table
Look at one, study it, and fill out a blank one yourself by memory. Try memorizing combinations and their products like '6x7' and '42'. Use flashcards or math games to help you with this. Do the same with division as well.
