Invented in the 50s, Fortran = FORmula Translating language. It was basically created to solve this sort of problem.
Ok but this is a bit of an unfair comparison given that Freya is pretty god tier at actually explaining math things.
Her videos about splines are god-tier
Went to look for the splines video and i already watched it? and her other videos i do not remember binging this
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=jvPPXbo87ds
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.
This isn’t even god tier, it’s just that more people are familiar with the basics of programming than higher level math, which is honestly a good thing.
I’m amazed people in here are calling a summation higher level math. Apparently my school experience was way different than a lot of other people’s.
Maybe not this, but her video on splines is amazing.
Fuck! Im 40 and this is the first time I understand the sigma sign!! Thank you!
Couldnt they just show this to me at 7th grade or something when i already learned pascal?
The sigma sign shows up as “sum” quite a bit but I didn’t know about the for-loop thing.
The hard part of math isn’t understanding esoteric symbols it’s the theory behind it and it’s application. Number theory will mindbreak almost all people.
The hardest thing for me about math was the symbols. Greek, Roman, English.
Once you get past that, the numbers are easy.
Number theory and higher levels of math are a completely different beast. Once your exam is over 50% just writing proofs you will change your tune. Unless you are built for it.
Ok now try infinite for loops

You people make me sad.
?
In a way I always thought coding was more intuitive than maths writing norms. That is if you speak English. If not, it’s as much daunting as weird greek symbols.
freya is not a random internet people
While I acknowledhe that I had some pretty awful math teachers, I would like to add that explaining math concepts in an edited video that you could spend a lot of time making has different demands than babysitting/teaching 30+ students at different levels multiple times a day with little prep time.
Also the viewers are actively looking for that content
Maybe I’m crazy but they did teach me this in school. “This means so this operation until conditions are met”.
He’s missing the sigh() function call at the start of the main body of the loop.
The education system creates scarcity of knowledge to increase the profit of investment and spending, everything complex can be broken down into simple forms.
Sounds as a conspiracy theory
Everything dealing with capitalism ends up sounding like a conspiracy theory. You’re like “of course people wouldn’t actually take this thing we, as humans, need and sell it,” when suddenly air has been commodified and those who can’t afford it are dlseen as not deserving of air.
I have no idea what these math things are but I understand the code perfectly lol
Came here to say the same!

real
Freya is a really good programming maths communicator so it doesn’t surprise me
Not knowing about Splines before
Feeling like understanding Splines afterwards 🥰
