Ask HN: What are you learning?
I’ve been wanting to ask this a differential geometer - what do you think of Sussman and Wisdom’s book as a DE intro for an CS/applied math person? Thanks!https://www.amazon.com/Functional-Differential-Geometry-MIT-...
⬐ jupedNever read it, but the preview pages look pretty neat. I might pick it up for a fun read. Might want to pair it with something like do Carmo's Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces (which is quite accessible) for the mathematical side.⬐ jmeisterThanks for the recommendation. And yes, the lisp book should be fun. Sussman is a legendary CS educator.
