The English edition is a mostly AI translation of the fourth edition of the original German text. There are a lot of dad jokes and bad puns in the text, but it is definitely clearly written and explains the concepts well. The very approachable style makes it quite suitable for self-study. I used it as a review in preparation of my study for more advanced mathematical topics.

The code in this package is not meant to be a complete implementation of the book, but rather stuff that I created in order to gain practice and a deeper understanding of the concepts in the book. The code is all in Julia, a language I find extremely suitable for mathematical study and actually fun to code with. I make use of multiple Julia packages, not because they are necessary to implement a specific concept, but rather, in order to have an opportunity to play with and learn about some of their capabilities.

Besides the package documentation, you will also find in the left navigation tab links to documents that explain topics covered in the book. These often provide more details than covered in the books. These documents are meant to be a resource first for myself and then anyone who wants to learn and review basic mathematical concepts. I do try hard to carefully check the accuracy of the explanations. Please note that I have fully checked and edited all displayed sections. However, I am not a professional mathematician, so please do let me know if you find any mistakes or inaccuracies.

Originally I planned to add documentation for all the advanced topics listed above. Subsequently, I decided it makes more sense to only include the coverage of _Algebra_, _Geometry_ and _Trigonometry_ in this repository. Since I plan to create separate repositories on _Linear Algebra_, _Calculus_, _Probability and Statistics_, and _Complex Numbers (Analysis)_ where I go in depth into those topics, I will add a _Basics_ folder to each of these to cover the material in this book. Follow the links in the _FourM Study Guides_ section of the left navigation tab to find these (so far there is only one for _Linear Algebra_).
