I just feel like I think a lot better looking at code. Each input would have a descriptive variable name.
And sometimes if a formula has something unusual like a derivative, it's hard for me to see how that converts to code.
- hackinthebochs 14y agoYeah, there's no doubt a benefit in reading a concept in a language you're more comfortable with. It would have to be an interesting algorithm that could extract meaningful variable names from the surrounding prose when translating an equation to code :)
- jdminhbg 14y agoI feel the same way. In fact, reading math feels like reading code where all the operators have been overloaded and there are only 26 available variable names.
- BHSPitMonkey 14y agoSounds like the math you're reading needs better Unicode support :)
