Since you are eyeing DEs, I would suggest not to spend too much time on Calculus. I have two resources in mind: Calculus Made Easy (available freely on Project Gutenberg) by Thompson, and simply Khan Academy. Paul Lamar has detailed notes o

I use Diffrax and my own stuff with Numba/CuPy JIT-ing. Can you compare the Python ecosystem for DEs with Julia according to your experience?

Not only that, but always writing on the edge where an individual operates is also much more time-consuming. So, from an author's perspective, it is also much easier and less time-consuming for him/her to write at a much lower lev

There is a course [0] from MITx that should be right for you. I had started it once, and it was very well-designed. But it was a bit slow-paced for my taste and I did not finish it. For textbooks, I can recommend you the fantastic book- Non

> "Note that x(x+3) = 18 and x(x-3) = 18 are valid models of the same problem. One finds the longer side in terms of the shorter, or vice versa" That is the reason I made the mistake initially. They both were correct in my mind

It was my fault, and was created by a moment of absent-mindedness. They are both correct individually, but definitely wrong when read together. I corrected it. Thanks for reading the article and pointing out the obvious mistake. I will proo

I know this is easy, but I still had to spend ~1 hour going through docs and videos- to start using the package in Julia comfortably . I think that writing it might help somebody in future. And as I use Python almost exclusively in my work,

Could you tell me a bit about your background, your level in mathematics, and the type of book you prefer? Do you enjoy highly rigorous, proof-heavy texts, or do you prefer books where the author explains concepts in a more conversational a

Author here. Yes, f(u,p,t) returning du is the suggested way to do things, but this pattern of updating du through in-place updating is more memory efficient when a system of equations (say 10-100) is involved. The suggested way, when we do
