I learned math in uni. I respect your question a lot because it shows you want to learn more. Math is not a topic. Math is an activity. A lot of "math" courses are memorization which completely defeats the purpose. It's like memorizing a few programs as a way to learn coding -makes 0 sense and it's kinda sad. To learn math you need to know how to prove things (as with coding you need to know how to write programs). Proof techniques are the foundations of math. You have to practice proving things or else you simply don't know math. (Math proofs are the format for Google code jam solutions for what it's worth.) Last time someone asked this here I found this textbook[0] Please look, the world would be better if more people knew how to math. You may need someone to evaluate your proofs for mistakes my email is on my profile. [0]: https://courses.csail.mit.edu/6.042/spring17/mcs.pdf https://courses.csail.mit.edu/6.042/spring17/mcs.pdf
