Another year came to an end, this is a long run for me, I am in my second year at OSSU, I need another year and a little more to get done all the courses needed, for all who will read this, continue to stay motivated, enjoy cs, enjoy programming, keep pushing. Happy New Year🎉🎆✨
- calc 1b 3/5 of the course done, my favourite, Sal Khan is a brilliant tutor.
- math for cs 1/3 of the course done, don't like the explanations, superficial.
- linear algebra 1/2 of the course done, got a little lost at projection matrices.
- cs61b data structures around 1/10 done, everything on point.
I am not sure how I will go with the fundamentals of physics, if it's going to be too hard I'll drop out.
- Data Structures hw2 done, looking forward to lab3 hw3 and project1.
- Fundamentals of Physics week1 in progress, Newtonian mechanics, vectors.
- Calculus 1b applications of integrals, with volumes.
- Math for cs structures unit 2 out of 4 units, gcd.
- Linear Algebra, determinant week and all about it.
- I took another elective to fulfill a part of the english composition and writing, it's free, why not.
- Linear Algebra almost done with unit 2 out of 3, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, a little useless for me, too mathy, but have to carry it.
- Calculus 1b, finising applications of integrals.
- Data Structures, slinked lists lab3 done.
- Math for CS, GCD.
- Physics still week1 out of week12, plan to tackle homework this weekend.
- fundamentals of physics - week2 lessons, pset1-problem1, problem2.
- calculus 1b - applications of integrals done, arclen, around 80% of the course done, I don't consider parametric equations because it's a small unit.
- english composition - module1, part of hw1.
- data structures, picture for linked list, and project1 in progress
- fundamentals of physics - week3 lessons, pset2-problem1, problem2.
- calculus 1b - last unit.
- english composition - module2.
- data structures, hw3, project 1 stil pending.
- linear algebra: dropping the course, its irrelevant, after unit I and unit II and 2/3 I needed transfomations but there arent any, instead of it, I will do my final project which is a spinning cube in c++ and sfml or sdl, to compensate the drop, project init.
- math for cs - ps5 only gcd and congruence were good, the rest are irrelevant, moving forward to ps6.
- fundamentals of physics - week4, pset2 done, starting pset3 for the next week; its hard, I cannot solve almost anything without examples or hints, but the general concepts I do understand, the only problem is with algorithm design and the strategy design, what is what, which is the hardest part, but in general, I need it more in the theoretical way so, see no problem, I still understand it.
- data structures, hw3 done, I'll try to move faster with this, too much time, had some bugs with vscode cache and java packages, my hw3 was importing classes from lab3 instead of current hw3 folder, It was hard for me to fix that besides the homework itself, which was ok.
- calc 1b final unit - series; I started to enjoy calculus, in physics I get more practice with it.
- linear algebra cube project is in progress, I barely started, I know 0 c++, but will get there
In general, this versatility of programming languages, libraries, sometimes annoys me, but this skill should be good for the future self.
- solved one physics problem with the help of my gpt-ta, it was helpful, I got an understanding, pleased with the result, I was thinking all the way in steps, and used the understanding -> goal -> strategy -> implimentation -> evaluation, problem solving technique
- cube project: init project, window, renderer, poll, etc.
- math for cs: pset6
- data structures - lab4 download
- fundamentals of physics 1 - I started to get a hang of it, problems are hard but doable, the concepts aren't, as usual, week4 lessons done, week3 homework partially done.
- linear algebra spinning cube - info in main folder log.txt
- data structures - lab4 done, next two lessons in plan, and project1 reading, as I mentioned it should be hard.
- math for cs - rsa digraph homework 6, moving to week 7
- english comp - in progress module 2
- calc 1b - series 1/10 done
- readme.md - added head and tail pointers
- fundamentals of physics 1 - week 6, pset 6, moving into pset 7, actually, it isn't that hard, I understand mass, weight, velocity, speed, acceleration, acceleration of gravity, distance, displacement, work, power, kinetic energy, potentital energy, elastic collision, I mean I got it, this is important, the thing that I cannot solve each problem is seconds, its another thing, but I don't need that, I am happy and proud solving simple problems and those from pset which I can or want to.
- math for cs - pset 7, partial orders of equivalence, degrees and isomorphism
- calc 1b - series still
- linear algebra cube project, rendered the 12 lines connecting the cube, more info in log.txt
- readme.md updates
- started codeforces again I solved already like 40 problems, want to get really good, my scope is 100 for now.
- data structures - lab5, still lazy to get ready for project 1
- dropping english composition and substituting it codeforces
- dropping cube project, too hard, and substituting it for 2d shapes and matrix transformations and ui
- updating schedule, current HEAD and date
- I changed my mind and actually finished the cube project for the linear algebra, pushed it to the end and finished linear algebra, this was a long run, moving forward.
- Fundamentals of Physics dummy problems
- Archive English Composition
- Started introduction to probability - want to take this class with more responsibility, like the core cs classes, because I guess will need this
- Want to finish my calculus 1b class as fast as I can, I have left around 80% of the series unit , and focus more on cs classes, probability, physics, codeforces and other
- Calc 1b series exercises
- Google Summer of Code 2025 project prototype init
- Codeforces 1 problem
- I also had to do data structures and physics but I couldn't
🎉🎉🎉 I'll take a minute and clap for myself.
- I formally closed all required Calculus courses, in total, from Algebra 1 till present moment it took me around 3 years, but I started from 0 and was lazy, I didn't even understand fractions, so as practice shows, you can do it, with consistency and patience. Right now I am sure that my current level of math is enough to swing in almost any cs/programming/se field. I wish myself good luck
23/03/2025
