few questions:
- have you tinkered with electronics at all before
- what is your level of formal education
- do you have an engineering background, and if so, what profession
- how good are you at math
No, high school, no, level:asian
do you have an intuitive understand of differential and integral calculus
I just think the diy projects people do are bretty cool
So trying to get into that
are you currently in college?
Didn't cover that in school
Not yet
okay because knowing calculus will get you far
are you an underage nigga
you better check yourself
In electronics?
Calc?
calculus in electronics, of course
i am an underage nigga
but anyways, there are two ways imo
So study math first
bottom up and top down
i started with top down for about half a year before switching to bottom up
top down = start with high level shit like arduinos and shit
bottom up = build up math and electronics foundations and work your way up to microcontrollers
top down is good but your productivity will be limited and you'll hit the brick wall of lack of fundamentals in about 6 months if you are dedicated
if you're pursuing electronics in college, do top down stuff before you get in, and do bottom up in college and you'll do really well academically and in career
Thx fam
if you're doing other engineering in college, just start with bottom up
yeah
for resources, learn calculus at khan academy
I'm just getting in as a hobby
if you haven't taken electricity and magnetism in highschool, make sure you get on that
So not sure bout the college aspects
you need to know like voltage current and resistance
and shit like that
once you get the basics of basics done, you're ready to do actual electronics
Is this suppose to be hard
what
