I Failed Calc But I Can Do Data Engineering Math And So Can You
<h1>“What’s With All The Letters?”</h1>
<p>One of my favorite stories my grandfather tells goes like this: Sometime in the mid 1950s as a high school freshman he steps into a classroom, sees an algebraic expression on the board and asks his teacher: “I thought this is math. What’s with all of those letters?”</p>
<p>Decades later I waged my own battles against math, its problems and the increasingly frustrated but saintly individuals who attempted to teach me.</p>
<p>My struggle continued into data science grad school where my passion for shaping and presenting data far outweighed my willingness to apply mathematical proofs to ML models.</p>
