Prerequisites
None. This course starts from zero.
Required Materials
- Notebook (physical, for hand-drawing triangles)
- Python environment (numpy, scipy, matplotlib, sympy)
- Jupyter notebooks (provided)
Grading
Just study this shit at your own pace. If you need help, then ask for help. He who needs help and is silent is either dead or a dumbass.
The Triangle Principle
The triangle is the minimal structure that encodes relationship. Two points define a line. Three points define a plane, with distances, angles, orientation, and area. This is enough to build probability, information, complex numbers, vectors, action, quantum states, spacetime, and epistemology.
