> In the next 10 years, software engineers aren’t still going to be limited to programming web and mobile apps. They’ll be working on writing mainstream computer vision and virtual reality apps, working with interesting cryptographic algorithms for security and building amazing self-learning products using machine learning. You can’t go very far in any of these fields without a solid mathematical foundation.
This is what scared and convinced me to relearn Mathematics. I hated it when I took it up before but I realized that the coolest jobs requires it.
However, after a few months of self-learning, I discovered that the hard part is not learning the concepts. It is structuring your learning in such a way that you can retain what you learned after a few weeks.
It has been a challenged for me to do. Learning new higher level concepts exposed my gaps in learning the fundamentals.
