If you are doing this, this is what I'd love : a book with theory and ton of exercises. My usual workflow is : I read theory, kind of understand something. Then first try one type of exercise that applied that theory. I don't understand a thing. Then I read the solution and I get it. I then need at least two if not more exercises more to play with that theory before I REALLY get it in my mind.

So please, add at least three exercises for each of the applications of each concepts explained in your book.

Seconded 1000 times. We have tons of books written in a pompous manner with self-patting on the back and full of theory only.

If you do indeed finish that book, consider me sold on it even if it costs $150 -- if it contains a lot of practical examples and exercises.

I feel like I'm in the same boat: not hugely great at math (I mean I can do algebra and various geometries) but calculus and a lot of AI literature I've read that included algorithms were just very complicated for me to figure out.

So I would also be interested in this book of yours. If you want my feedback I'm also available but I certainly don't expect handouts; just add me to a list to spam when you get your book finished :)

I guess it's time I check out keybase's file stuff. Thanks!

I'd like to review and give feedback
