One of the prerequisites is differential calculus, please suggest some good resources to learn from!


You might try Strang's book [1]. You probably only need to cover chapters: 1,2,3,4,6,11,13.

Thanks a lot! Been a while since I took calculus


Quick Calculus by Daniel Kleppner

Also, if you can find an ancient copy of Thomas Calculus when it was two volumes. Buy the first volume. Solve all the odd problems, the solutions are in the back. That's how I learned!

A later edition of Thomas was a single volume big thick yellowish book. It was very good. We used it as freshmen at MIT. You could learn from it. I don't remember if that version had answers in it. But solving problems and having answers to check against is key.
