how can you forget derivatives? they are like multiplication tables

a bit. the very essense of some theories stays, but when i read some of my own reports from 12 years ago it often feels like "it seems like that guy knew what he was doing" even though i recall them not being anything to write home about

Derivatives are extremely simple, they are a the tangential function of the original function, it's easiest to understand when you remember that the derivative of sine is cosine, and the derivative of cosine is minus sine. It's like the speed of the function.
Much like the derivative of speed is acceleration, and the derivative of acceleration is snap.
Integrals are simple the "volume" of a function between point a and point b
Integrals can get really complicated but their definition is quite simple.

You can easily learn more about them if you spend 10-20 mins a day before bed, learning math is actually quite fun on your own, without all the academic pressure.

Yep, neeting doesn't only affect your social skills, it slowly turns your brain into mush. I fucking regret neeting for a few years when I was 18-21, made me a halfwit and introduced so many bad habits which I have to carry the rest of my life.

Once I learn the basic logic for something, I carry it with me for decades. What I do forget are some minor details.

For example, if I haven't used a programming language in a while, I will forget intricacies about its syntax, but I don't easily forget the basic core principles of the language and its capabilities. So, picking it up again is a lot faster than learning it from scratch.

Anonymous Morocco No.216086913 [Report]

It's very simple in principal, it's the perimeter of the function (if it is 2d) between two points, for example, the function of x ---> 2x between 0 and 5 is 0 and 10
you need to find the antiderivative of 2x, which is x the power of 2
and then you substract the x to the power of 2 for 5 by that of 0
which is:
5 power of 2 - 0 power of 2
25 - 0
The integral of 2x between 0 and 5 is 25

Yeah, I have a useless bachelor's degree in math, when you study math you mostly do theoretical stuff like convergence of functional series, topology, abstract algebra etc. Nobody gives a fuck about integration because
>WolframAlpha can solve integrals o algo
I used to have a head full of lemmas and theorems but after I obtained my degree I got depressed, withdrew from society altogether and became a NEET. I still offer paid tutelage in math including university math from time to time to earn some money, it was a condition my mother gave when she agreed to me being a NEET

Yeah, muscles you don't use tend to disappear. If you still want to maintain your intellectual abilities I'll give you word of advice - try doing college level math just for fun, without the pressure of exams and homeworks. You'll see how slowly but steadily you'll be making progress and remember the things you forgot

I remember studying math with my father in 4th grade and he got extremely pissed because I didn't understand fractions, I started crying and thought I was retarded for years
Then I kinda got over it and passed calculus IV in uni, and some random day I asked my father one of those retarded trick math questions like what's 1099 + 101 and he got it spectacutarly wrong, he said some shit like 5000 and then I realized that he was just projecting his retardation and math insecurity onto me all those years back

Yeah, high school derivatives. Wait, no, early high school derivation / integration. (Ameritfarts, don't read further, because you retards don't learn about derivation until college.) Things like integration by parts, I doubt you'd remember it after not using it for ten years.
