You many want to study how to make educated guesses. This are sometimes called back of the napkin calculations or Fermi estimation problems. There is one course on MIT Opencourseware that teaches it: https://ocw.mit.edu/cour

How to estimate things. That is the best thing in Math I have learnt. It is known as Street Fighting math or Fermi estimation and many other names. One book that is close to my heart is: Street Fighting Mathematics by Sanjoy Mahajan.

I am amazed how one can teach a subject with such enthusiasm for 60 years and never get bored of it. Hats off to Prof Strang for kindling in me the love for mathematics.

I have used Asus, Dell and HP Laptops with Ubuntu on them. The battery management is so pathetic that within a few months the battery is fried. Now, I have Ubuntu on my Desktop and Windows 10 on my laptop although I hate it.

They were not textbooks for any course. But I liked these: 1. Mathematics and Plausible Reasoning by George Pólya 2. Probability Theory: The Logic of Science by E.T. Jaynes
