    Calculus How do you choose problem sets in Courant's calculus texts?

    I'm going to use Courant's volume 1 and 2. I don't want to try every problem in the book, so how do I go about choosing problems to know if I understand the material?

    Other MOOCs vs Textbooks for computer science students

    Is Courants all in one book or is it separated?

    Other MOOCs vs Textbooks for computer science students

    So would you recommend me to use both for learning?

    Other MOOCs vs Textbooks for computer science students

    What textbooks would you recommend to me in that case? What textbooks would you recommend then for Calc -> Multivariable Calc, Diff eq, Lin Algebra, and Prob/stats?

    We learned up to eigen decomposition but didn’t even get into SVD. I want to do data science so I think prob/stats is very important.

    Where Can I Start with Self-Learning Math for Data Science and Machine Learning?

    I aspire to do a PhD in CS where I'll apply CS to climate data. I hope someday I can be a professor at a research university. I've done a lot of research at the Ubicomp Lab at Georgia Tech, and I've talked to an Earth and Atmospheric Science professor about doing research with him next semester...

    Where Can I Start with Self-Learning Math for Data Science and Machine Learning?

    My passion is the environment, and I want to apply data science and machine learning to climate data. I didn't learn much from my math courses throughout and haven't taken a physics or chemistry course since high school. I want some guidance on how to self-learn math starting from Calculus...
