Calculus is not in the pictured starter pack because it is found more often in high school curricula, while linear algebra (''despite being core to "applied mathematics" topics such as engineering, numerical computing, and statistics'') is often missing at the required level of rigor. Thus, we suggest looking at any '''Basic Mathematics''' to quickly fill in your gaps and as a source of quick and dirty computational techniques used universally. | Calculus is not in the pictured starter pack because it is found more often in high school curricula, while linear algebra (''despite being core to "applied mathematics" topics such as engineering, numerical computing, and statistics'') is often missing at the required level of rigor.

The | The decalogy by '''Landau''' are the list's core. While on that track, you should start dipping into the texts listed under the Landau volumes to enhance your perspective on repeated readings. Books in the top rows are generally more basic and can be read at the same time, giving important insight into the structure of the subjects. | ||
The '''General Mathematics''' section covers the knowledge that would be acquired in standard (but basic) graduate courses on the different areas of mathematics that later develop into modern topics, and should be developed alongside Landau. | The '''General Mathematics''' section covers the knowledge that would be acquired in standard (but basic) graduate courses on the different areas of mathematics that later develop into modern topics, and should be developed alongside Landau. | ||
