The last couple of months, I have been studying the fundamentals of algebra using Professor Leonard's YT Channel[0]. My goal is to fill in the gaps in my knowledge before I refresh my Calculus. It takes a while to go through all this stuff, if you do it right. But man, I have so much more confidence in my skills now than I had before, which to me is in itself rewarding and motivating. I had no idea how big my knowledge gaps in algebra were before I started going through his playlists.

My end goal is to be able to follow Andrej Karpathy's "Neural Networks: Zero to Hero"[1] without any big problems So starting basically from "zero" in order to learn the prerequisites before learning what you actually want to learn on your own can feel daunting at times. But I think taking shortcuts will result in frustration. So, here I am taking algebra courses on YT with 38 years.
