Hey /sci/, I'm taking an ODE class in the fall, and it's

Idk man, it almost seems like you should be reviewing vectors and calculus so that you're familiar with what you deal with in vector calculus...

>>8188533
Ordinary just means that they exist in ordinary n-complex-dimensional barnett integrable spaces.

Sure you'll be fine.

>>8188533
if its the generic ODE cookbook class you'll probably never need any linear algebra harder than taking determinants, finding (generalized) eigenvectors, computing jordan canonical form, and maybe matrix exponentials

>>8188533
all of calc 2. you won't touch vector calc. its ODE not PDE.

i believe you mean jayden spaces

Either you've never taken ODEs, or you didn't read his post.


OP, just review integrals. Nothing else really shows up. Know trig subs, u-subs(duh), etc.

Well, series solutions might show up for you, so review series.

taylor series desu senpai

>>8188617
this.

if you are an engineering major, taylor series is pretty much the only thing you are going to use from here on out. after sophomore year you just approximate everything with taylor expansion.

Guy who is half a semester of work behind OP here, if I go into post DE math, will I have to remember anything other than Taylor Series stuff, and how to u-sub/integrate by parts?
