Yeah, that's Widmer's sense of humor. Too bad he was super stoic in our class for whatever reason.

Widmer is a great Professor

I'll remember this next semester. I was going to take him for linear algebra/diff eq, but I didn't think I could get from gateway to physics in 10 mins.

There are a few classes where you should definitely take Widmer for, but linear algebra isn't one of them. I took him for linear algebra in Spring 2018 and honestly I don't think he is the best at teaching that class. We skipped over some important things because we ran out of time (orthogonalization, QR and LU decomposition, Cramer's rule, diagonalization of A = PDP^-1 matrices, etc.). I also don't like his emphasis on computational accuracy. Some of the professors let you use calculators on the exams (maybe at least four function), but not Widmer. I wouldn't put him on the bottom of your list of professors to take it with, but he definitely should not be your number one choice for linear algebra IMHO.

Dr Tran is the BOSS of linear

Im conflicted because i know ill love this class but hate the material

Algebra is a beast. Just a rabbit hole of definitions and terminology

The Unicorn riding the floor is a group

i barely understand regular algebra what the fuck is abstract algebra

Its also called modern algebra. It connects the real numbers to the complex numbers and allows some kinky stuff to happen with groups I have no idea

My news writing professor has a gif of a cat keysmashing for that thing.
