Very fun read, thanks. :smile:

I especially liked this part from early high school...
One of the most profound experiences I had was discovering how math made understanding electronics much easier. I could not understand feedback. But I wrote the equations and all was clear. Nor could I understand the phase shift of capacitors and inductor’s – but read about the phasor representation and just by differentiating all was clear. That’s when I knew mathematics was the key to understanding. Later as I learned more and more it simply reinforced it was the real key.
