Math for Game Developers: Fundamentals of Calculus

[@cheesypufs]

Great job explaining Calculus. It's been a while since I took Calc, ODE and PDE and I've all but forgotten it. You make this topic a lot more interesting than my professors ever have. Keep it up!

[@sutischolar]

I am a university student and a game dev hobbyist. I have calculus at school but this is just so awesome how you put these topics together. Thank you. Best way to learn

It’s funny that the best calculus explanation that I’ve ever seen in my life didn’t happen in a classroom, not even in a math KZbin channel. This was amazing and I’m speechless by the level of clarity of your videos and explanations. Thank you very much

I took Calculus I & II in college and did decently (got A & B). I feel like you explained calculus more clearly in 30m than in the entire semester I took it. 😂

20 years after studying calculus in my college, I finally have a clear explanation of what we were doing. Well... All my teachers sucked.

Can't believe this only have 5K views

[@EricRothman-cv2mu]

This is the best explanation of calculus I've ever heard. Thank you! Will def check out your courses

Hey Pikuma. Your videos are great! May I make a suggestion. Would it be possible to create a course titled: “Mathematics for Game Developers” Where topics such as: - Linear Algebra - Calculus - 3D maths (vectors) Are covered. Thank you!

[@pikuma]

Hi Lee, thanks! In a way, I already have a course on these topics in my website. Instead of simply having a course that teaches these concepts isolately, I have a course where I teach exactly these ideas but in the context of creating a 3D software renderer. All these topics that you mentioned are covered in the 3D graphics course (with the exception of calculus). I'm recording another course now on Physics Engines that covers vectors heavily and also calculus. So, I have courses on these topics. it's just not called "math for programmers", but it's absolutely math for programmers. 🙂

[@Lee14G]

Thank you for answering me Pikuma and the explanation. I will definitely also check out your 3D software renderer course on your website.

This lecture was incredible, thank you so much, you're great at teaching!

[@WyMustIGo]

What a very CLEAR explanation! Great work!

[@luisf.r8146]

I dont understand why exactly we have to test a->b and b->a. In wich case theres a collision between a and b and not between b and a?

[@phutureproof]

Is the audio on this video a bit crackly or is my pc dying on me? Great video by the way

[@pikuma]

Nah, you're absolutely right. I had a horrible mic in my first videos. It should be fixed now in the new lectures. 🤞

[@phutureproof]

This is a brilliant video, I'll definitely check out more of your content thanks man

What's the story with the rubber duck?

I love your lectures.

Great Video!!

How does this help to calculate the bounce, given p(0), v(0) and p(max) where p(max) is the point our object would contact the ground. What is t and v when object is at p(max).

[@cheako91155]

I think there are problems with floats and making them as tiny as possible, rounding errors are going to be an issue.

[@nagesh007]

Awesome 😍

[@jairosantos6062]

Wow, easy to undestand, obrigado.

[@pikuma]

O prazer é meu. :)

[@exe.m1dn1ght]

alright, too complicated for my brain

[@antoinedevldn]

this is dynamite
