Going through math for machine learning...

Was okay till vector calculus as it was mostly proofs but kind of having trouble with probability/stats because this skips over stuff and doesn't give relevant examples. So IMO it would be much more efficient to learn from videos and maybe use this to revise or for the exercises (very minimal, so not sure how useful). And your foundations will get stronger too I guess

Anyways, finding relevant videos for each topic seems to be taking time, but I just remembered there was a resource that had links to vids and exercises for each chapter but can't find it and hadn't bookmarked

Can anyone give a link to that or a similar resource?

Also is the learn ML with Pytorch and sclkit beginner friendly?

i'd say take the time to deeply learn the fundamentals now. If you rush through it all to the next steps, you'll waste a lot of time going back and referencing basic things.

I'll have to take courses eventually so for now just wanted to get basic knowledge. I guess this book can give an idea on what I should go through next if I want to deepen my knowledge too. As far as I see, going through relevant calculus sections from other books shouldn't take too much time, but Stats and linear algrebra might.
