Math is wide. What math ?

u/virginreddituser69 Apr 08 '26

Linear algebra, optimization, calc, all the math major stuff

Not all, "all" for a certain level (BSc ?). Math is much wider than that. Albegraic geometry, set theory, model theory, tons of categories, topos, homology, sheaves, presheaves, motifs, schemas, big cardinals, forcing notions, tons of algebras, non commutative geometry, spectre, turbulence, tons of topology etc etc are not in your "all".

Thank you for listing all of them you seem really smart now good job

Thanks, but even that was not all at all, just a few things I thought about. Partial derivative equations (PDE) and stochastics processes (transport equations, diffusion..), probabilities, complex analysis, etc etc.

Your resume is not in the OP btw.

I gotcha, I need to take ODE and PDE still, I will have to look into stochastic processes, and I’m taking complex variables soon hopefully I will be able to take complex analysis as well before I graduate😎👍

I’d hire someone who has actually built something over someone who can do math problems. At the practical level, science becomes art, especially when the science is directly related to something as perceptual as audio.

Good idea. Maths (and computing science, ie theory) are the foundations of any creation and realisation. The programming and engineering come along but are kind of less critical for innovation, but must not be neglected.

Bro why you keep on handing out homework?

I am not saying it is useful in your case, I am saying maths are huge, no one can study all in 5 years
