Hello all!
I'm just out of high school and have got a few months before college begins. I think I'm fairly good in high school math, and now I've just started self-learning Single Variable Calculus (Calc I) from MIT OCW Scholar.
I love Physics, and aim to be a physicist someday. I recently obtained the Feynman Lectures from my town library, and really enjoyed Prof. Feynman's quirky, yet detailed way of explaining Physics.
But as I glanced some of the later chapters, I found the math to be quite unfamiliar compared to what I've learned so far.
So I was wondering, upto what level of math do I need to be proficient in, to truly understand the Feynman Lectures?
Thanks in advance!
