Brilliant tip at 3.51 minutes, where Eddie tells us exactly WHY a simple number in a function doesn't affect the gradient. I've done many derivatives before in questions, but only now do I understand why simple numbers disappear (in a "concrete" sense as opposed to it just being because of the way the "power" attached to any simple number being x to the nought)
wait what? none of your teachers have explained that derivatives are used to find specific gradients in functions?? shitty teachers you got unlucky my g
Kudos for using the U-substitution method for the chain rule, rather than the messy form f(g(x)) = f'(g(x))*g'(x) . I find U-substitution to be much easier to remember, plus it ties in better when you start doing the "Reverse Chain Rule" for integrals.
1:11 someone sneezes and the professor says "bless you" and then moves on... no quarantine internment, no masks, no police asking for medical papers...ah, 2017 what a time to be alive.
