X Bubbler: Nought-y November

Monday, November 30, 2020

Nought-y November

I forgot to post anything in November (I'm actually writing this on Dec 2, 2020.) I'll be back with one or more posts for December.

Question: What is the easy way to learn things?

How do you learn new maths topics? I miss books. Do you try to learn new maths topics, or does your career consist of something else?

Another question: Have you caught covid-19? Will you like to say what that was like?

Advertisement: Read my books.
