Not OP but I’m interested in this subject as well. I took a look at this book and others that are similar and I’ve realized my foundations on math are really lacking to even understand the given examples. Since I only had the opportunity to finish my high school diploma and this was several years ago I wonder if you could have any suggestion to brush my math knowledge up in order to properly understand the examples of these books. The thing for me is that I’m not sure where I should start. Would you know any resource to introduce me to the math foundations in order to understand such texts? Or maybe math concepts that I should study before I dig in. I really appreciate it. Thanks.
