Ok, I am really hooked now.
I have always enjoyed math and love math problems and everything math. I am enthrawled by the threads here and only wish I could understand it all.
I am a typical layman hobbiest math enthusiast but I haven't done much in the way of real study since high school. I have a good grasp of algebra but I want to learn more.
So here is the question. How can I go about teaching myself more math?
Starting with a good refresher on algebra and trig (I know a little calc but not really much) what is your advise on how to study to increase my math skills? I can go to the local university and check out any math book on any subject imaginable so resources are not an issue.
For example...after math and trig... what would be a path to follow?
Let's say
Pre calc
calc
so on
so on
etc.
Any ideas. Keep in mind I am an amateur but I have desire and time.
