Best books to learn math? [Thread for future deletion]

Hello, do you know the best books to learn math?

I should start with school math, then advance on a high math.

I was a programmer, but I'm not doing programming work anymore.

I though that math is not mine, but I'm pretty sure I can advance in high school math, and it's beyound my intelligence level.

Just books, sites, something more.

I'm personally tried Saxon math, but I don't like it.

Yes, 'm mostly looking for real science, which programming isn't.

I'm interesting in such things like event horizon, black holes, constellations, cauchy, Stephen Hawking with his books about universe.

I'm tired with gamehacking, so I'm no do programming work anymore. I've looked at book with algebra, geometry, functional analysis.

Most books I had looks isn't legit. I'm assuming I need math for not very smart person, where whould explain what an logaripm, integral, multitude, function, trees, graphs.The most math books I can't understand due to being not math addict. I just can't understand schol math, there isn't well eplined what is loogaripm, integral, only how to learn it, which isn't describe what it is.

It is right that programing isnt't real science?

I'm like I said, want to do science.

Sadly I only know some books written in german, but I'm sure there are even better ones in english. Just use a search engine and query specific terms such as "Geometry for elementary school" etc.

What's important is, that you have a set of topics, that you can search for. Check this out.

I'd start with Arithmetic -> Algebra -> Basic Geometry -> Linear Algebra -> Calculus & Analysis. You can also throw in Combinatorics, Statistics and Logic. That should cover what most STEM graduates know and keep you busy for a long time. Everything that goes beyond that, is really specific or advanced and shouldn't bother you for now. And stay away from video tutorials and similar online offers. Math is best when exercised on paper.

Just read the books of the high school curriculum of your country. Reading them in English when it's not your native language just introduces unnecessary mental overhead.

Then you've been reading terrible books.

You will love this, it fits all together:

Hello, from what I discovered I can't lean math, because it's too specifically, and I don't see myself a math guy. Sadly, I figured this out just recently.

Here is recent work, which took around two weeks in total:

My old code, witch took three/four month to archive:

My question is does new algorithms and data strctures exists? Does it possible to get more advanced that dynamically allocated array, single linked list, trees, graphs, and more data structures?

What data structures are they? Beyond threes and graph? Matrix, Quaternion, Vector?

Does it possible to create electronic life?

How much programming and programmer cost?

I will continue my programming work.

I think math is fake, programming isn't, but there is only five data structures (dynamically allocated array, single linked list, hash table, trees, graphs) and two algorithms (searching, sorting).

Is there new data strctures, and algorithms?

Yes, math is fake. It's been invented by the global elite to keep the proletariat down.
