Slow but steady progress.
I know how to multiply matrices, determine if a matrix has an inverse (for 2x2 and 3x3, stilll a bit confused about 4x4+) and calculate its inverse.

I'm currently working on a PVE game, so this seemed very interesting. I just came here to ask if you did this in your Spaceballs game so that I could check that out?

Yes, that's where I got the idea for managers, his Spaceballs game.

^ I'm glad u guys found something of value :)

I'm halfway to becoming a mathwiz.
I've finished the book and I've gone through "Matrix algebra" from math tutor. I'm now a few videos into linear algebra 1, also from math tutpr. Will finish this one in a couple of days and then go through linear algebra 2.

Hopefully after this I'll have a few days left before school starts to run through the intermediate chili vids to refresh my c++ memory and learn some new stuff.

Thanks Chili^^ Such hype when you're featured in an update!

Still spamming maths. Not much left though. What I have left is to get a bit more introduced to Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors, then I'll also rewatch videos about linear transformation and chilis video on rotation before picking up c++ again. Should just take a couple days.

Linear algebra (so far) is actually the math subject I like the most. I've learned enough of it by now that it doesn't feel scary to start that course

Finally done with all the math preparation. Read one book and watched 20+ hours of videos.

Gonna do a little bit of c++ repetition for the rest of the weeek and then when I start school, whenever I have extra time, I'll go though the intermediates and the 3d fundamentals along side the math course, not to get too rusty when it comes to programming

How is the C++ coming? Has Intermediate 6 broken your brain? :D

^ haven't gotten that far.

First day of school yesterday.

Was supposed to be 9am-5pm.

At 10am my gf called me and said we had to go to the hospital (she had a baby)
So missed pretty much all of day 1. Solid timing imo :D
