I can visualize linear transformations but don't remember the formal notation.

formal notation for linear is like nothing and extremely generalized to the rest of higher math

yeah whatever I know how to use vector databases and apparently that makes me special in my whatsapp group with AI devs. They mocked me for using Qdrant because it was an off-the-shelf app ("who uses those?"), then 2 weeks later I was getting DMs with questions

yeah I'm not saying its important to be able to solve linear problems from text books from years ago. just that i'm surprised you are saying its the notation you don't remember.

because I never needed to use it. an old Italian man with a thick accent taught it to me, then I forgot it and never needed it for shit

I remember hardly anything in terms of any undergrad class where I had to actually solve problems. I remember general concepts and basic notation, but couldn't solve problems cold with no review.

algrebra 2 probably has a chapter or 2 on some of the basics, but the op is referring to an undergrad class that goes much more in depth

it's the one that has no good instructors. It's easy to find good calculus instructors in America, but with linear algebra in you're probably getting an import from Calcutta

Linear Algrebra was the beginning of maybe math isn't my thing that was later concluded in Real Analysis.
