More chain rule!!! What fun!!! Actually it's not bad. This week we did a bunch more practice of that, and learned how to anti derive with the chain rule. Also this is random question I just had now, but I wonder if it's possible to do the limit of h is 0 method to find the derivative of these type of functions. My intuition says yes, but I haven't really thought about it in depth. So far, I actually like calculus. The math behind it I think actually think is cool, like finding the second and third derivatives, and how its acceleration and jerk. Even the math itself isn't bad. The thing I don't like about it so far, is there is so many rules. Like at first I thought now we knew how to find the derivative of any function, and some would just be messier and more math and take longer than others. But it turns out that's not the case. We keep learning more and more rules, which is annoying but there's nothing we can really do about it. But now I'm wondering even at the end of the class will there still be functions we didn't learn how to derive. I hate the concept of like when teachers say about a certain problem, "well on these ones you can't do this formula/method, but don't worry we won't do any like that." It's not the teachers fault, like I'm glad they're not trying to kill us with so much work, but at the same time it annoying because like we can't really find the derivative of everything, just certain equations, catered to our classroom. I don't know if any of that made sense, but yeah lol.
