Highschool math is all that is required for it from what I remember, definitely doesn't require a lot of mathematical maturity. Even if you would somewhat struggle to completely understand the math, the ideas they try to teach you should still be accessible in my opinion.
- Breza 5y agoI agree with you. They assume the level of math of an MIT freshman. And the level of computer experience of a modern 11 year old. So sometimes they lean on the math in situations where a professor today might explain something in terms of a computer. Take a step back and try to understand the concepts that they are explaining, even if your math is a little rusty. I love SICP, it really make functional programming click for me. The other book I recommend in this space is Advanced R.
