Rewatch this section

I’ve seen a lot of people say this section is difficult and has a large learning curve and I agree, first time I watched it I felt out of my depth and confused.

HOWEVER, watch the video for a second time once you have written your code with Ben and slowly watch/read and understand what is being said. Even rewinding a number of times to hear it explained over and over again.

This is an approach I took and it definitely helped me understand the lecture more.

That’s definitely the way forward. I have had to use math a lot for other 3D projects(Houdini, Python, Javascript) and music production. I found that popping over to the Khan Academy helps to understand the concepts he is showing here. GameDev TV also has a great course on Math specifically for Game Dev. Math is basically in everything and I wish my schooling as a kid showed more of the practical uses math has.
