Math is hard if you are a logical person without much imagination

Math can be difficult due to its abstract concepts, cumulative nature, and potential for creating anxiety or a weak foundation if earlier topics are not fully understood. Specific learning difficulties, such as dyscalculia, can also make math particularly challenging.

math just feels like a huge mess of things that dont go together and you have to remember 500 random sentances that seem to have no logic in what i see.

jimmy neutron would never say these things

Math is made harder by the way they teach it. Especially with the new "common core" methods they employ.

Math is just a pattern, and once you learn to recognize parts of the pattern, then math becomes MUCH easier to figure out.

So far the only person I've explained this to who understood it was (ironically) a math teacher, but here goes in the hopes that it might help you.

So everyone knows the simple basics right. 2+2=4... 2+3=5, 5+2=7, 5+3=8, etc. You don't have to "solve" these simple problems, you just know them.

So if 5+2=7, and 5+3=8, then you automatically know without even having to think about it that 8+7= 15. There is no need to even "solve" the problem because you can see the pattern.

5+2=7 and 5+3=8, so obviously 8+7 is going to end in 5 because 2+3=5, and you know it can't be 5 or 25 because 5+5 can't equal 0 or 20.

I feel there should be a MUCH easier way to explain this epiphany I've had, all I can tell you for sure is ever since I came to this realization math has become 10,000 times easier for me to do.


As far as you not seeing math in the world, you just have to open your eyes because it's literally everywhere you look in nature. The Fibonacci sequence alone can be seen in just about every single leaf, tree, flower, seashell, etc. It's really insane how much our world is built on the structure of mathematics. It gets even more insane if you take geometry into account.

Specifically sacred geometry.

Math can also be extremely fascinating if you really get into it.

math is easy.. is is logical..

grammar is hard.. it is illogical..
why is it written that way? -> cause people agreed it was written that way
why is is changes from how I was leared it a decade ago -> cause enough people wrote that word wrong and than the wrong way became the correct way.
MADNESS

social interacton (charisma/influence) is impossible..
-people like people that other people like, but what made those first people like them?
and one person can treat everybody like crap and be seen as perfect and another be the most alrustic on earth but seen as bad?
COMPLETE MADNESS...

what the equations say and what i see arent the same. none of it applys to anything i can relate with

I found the square root of skill issue

When I was in middle school my math teacher tried to teach us algebra using these stupid toys. It was a display with chess pawns and colored cubes to represent different numbers and values. I realize he was trying to dumb it down to kindergarten level but I just couldn't learn it that way.

Later on I learned how to do it with pencil and paper and my brain. Which is how they should have taught it to begin with.

Granted the last time I used all that was in college. I haven't really used algebra at all in all the years I've been an adult and working a job.

thats what they tried to teach me with as well.... but the teacher forgot to give us any context and handed the paper to us without telling us what algebra even was... that teacher was the worst and some said he was a pedo.... he was also just an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

The funny thing about algebra.

I was told by teachers that it was absolutely necessary to fully understand algebra in order to understand geometry. Yet I am the living example of that not being true, because I completely aced geometry in 8th grade and flunked the hell out of algebra in 9th grade.

They didn't allow me to take a geometry class in 10th grade specifically because I had flunked algebra.

To this day I've never understood how the two are related in any conceivable way.

some math i like, statistics and geometry are the ones i excell at, its when they try to dumb it down into story problems that i start to have a hard time. or how they refuse to explain why their stratagy works even though it makes no sense.

Yeah, now try programming maths.
This is the real Hell.

play a game where math is applicable to benefit gameplay. Like RPGs or maybe something like Trailmakers.

To improve your programming skills with math, focus on fundamental concepts like logic, sets, and operator precedence. Develop analytical and abstract reasoning skills by creating mathematical abstractions in your code and understanding how to represent mathematical statements in programming languages. For more complex tasks, master topics like logarithms, exponentials, and combinatorics, which are crucial for algorithm design and analysis.
