Hey /sci/,
I'm taking an ODE class in the fall, and it's been about 2 years since I finished vector calc. I can do most basic integrals/derivatives still, but the harder stuff isn't all that fresh in my head.
Will that be sufficient for the class? If not, what sort of stuff should I be reviewing?
Thanks.

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...

Ordinary just means that they exist in ordinary n-complex-dimensional barnett integrable spaces.
Sure you'll be fine.

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

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

>barnett
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

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?
