#14I wouldn’t discourage you from trying a more comprehensive approach to building a great foundation in math. Math is awesome and if you enjoy it, go for it. If you want to stay focused on ML, you might do alright by figuring out what you need as you go. Just walk back from each problem until you find your bearings, then dig in.
Math is huge and you could find it takes forever to arrive at the skills you need to do the specific thing you want to do.
