    Everyone should see the notes linked to on this page: https://www.cip.ifi.lmu.de/~grinberg/t/20f/mps.pdf

    They seem delightful

    Nice.

    People should also checkout Mathematical Tools for Real-World Applications: A Gentle Introduction for Students and Practitioners by Alexandr Draganov.

    Looks like a fun course -- that could suck up LOTS of time if you let it.

      > This is an example. Lots of assumptions without any explanations.

      The course notes are literally filled with examples and explanations. They have discussions on each homework exercise, for instance, not just the answers.

      Well, these are not the hardcore math, they are just puzzles and games.

      What is an example? This is a course page. Do you have a specific complaint?
