Hello

Hello everyone,

I've got an ambitious long term project: I'd like to be able to understand the maths of GR. Currently, I'm studying limits via the Kahn Academy and various textbooks.

Nice to meet you..  smile

Welcome to the forum.


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
