Solve For Why

by Will Malmo

Week 206 – August 7th to August 13th

I’m happy with the progress I made this week but didn’t end up passing the unit test. I finished off the final section in Derivatives of Multivariable Functions which was about the Jacobian Matrix and actually managed to more-or-less understand what it’s all about, but then got smoked on the unit test. One good piece of news… Read More Week 206 – August 7th to August 13th

Week 205 – July 31st to August 6th

I wish I would have gotten more done this week but I’m still happy with the progress I made and what I was able to learn. I finished the section Laplacian and have a relatively decent understanding of what it is and how it works but still need to get a better grasp on why it works. Halfway through… Read More Week 205 – July 31st to August 6th

Week 204 – July 24th to July 30th

I didn’t make as much progress this week as I hoped I would but I’m still happy with the effort I put in and with what I was able to learn. I ended up watching six videos, reading two articles and finishing off two exercises. The majority of my week was spent working on understanding… Read More Week 204 – July 24th to July 30th

Week 203 – July 17th to July 23rd

I had another solid week this week and managed to get through 11 videos, one article and two exercises. I finished off the section Divergence, which ended up being fairly straightforward, and almost made it through the following section, Curl, but was one video and two exercises short. I likely would have made it through that section… Read More Week 203 – July 17th to July 23rd

Week 202 – July 10th to July 16th

I didn’t reach my goal this week of getting through the section Divergence but did have a very productive week, nonetheless. It was disappointing that it took me until Friday to get through the four articles from the section Differentiating Vector-Valued Functions (Articles), but they gave me a much better intuitive understanding of vectors, their derivatives and curvature,… Read More Week 202 – July 10th to July 16th

Week 201 – July 3rd to July 9th

For the first time in a while, I actually achieved the goal I set for myself this week! 🥳 I rewatched and worked through the questions in the final three videos from Curvature and then made it through all the videos and exercises in the following section, Partial Derivatives of Vector-Valued Functions. The latter section was pretty straightforward for most… Read More Week 201 – July 3rd to July 9th

Week 200 – June 26th to July 2nd

I spent this entire week trying to understand curvature but haven’t really figured it out. I think I understand what it is (a measurement for how much a function curves – no surprise there given the name), but I don’t fully understand how to calculate it or why the formula works the way it does. There were nine videos in… Read More Week 200 – June 26th to July 2nd

Week 199 – June 19th to June 25th

This was one of those weeks where I felt like I was quite productive and am happy with the effort I put in but didn’t make very much progress in terms of the number videos and exercises I got through in KA. The majority of my week was spent working on an exercise titled Multivariable Chain… Read More Week 199 – June 19th to June 25th

Week 198 – June 12th to June 18th

I didn’t get as far this week as I hoped I would but still had a fairly productive week, nonetheless. I made it through six videos and two exercises which covered two topics. The first was vector valued functions which represented speed/position and finding the derivative of those functions which represented their velocity (I still… Read More Week 198 – June 12th to June 18th

Week 197 – June 6th to June 11th

Last week I spent a few days trying to get through the final exercise in the section Gradient and Directional Derivatives, so I was happy when I got through it on my first attempt this past Tuesday. I’m glad that I now have a decent understanding of HOW to solve the directional derivative but am still pretty lost on WHY it… Read More Week 197 – June 6th to June 11th
