Hello, there. Its 3:21 A.M right now, I’ve been at this blogging thing for about 3 hours now. Truth be told, it was a bit painful setting up my own blog using GitHub Pages. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this blogging thing better become more regular. I have made myself this promise several times before and intend to keep it this time, seeing as how it cost me 3 hours.

To tell the reader (If there are any, comment below if you do exist!!), I have been doing a few things lately. I studied quite a bit of Math and got my basics cemented. I studied Linear Algebra from here and also studied Statistics 110 from here. I did this with the express intention of strengthening my Math background for studying Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence and the like. Suffice to say, it helped tremendously. And I would gladly suggest this to anyone planning such an endeavour. I still have a few things left to study in Statistics though, Beta,Gamma distributions, Markov Chains and Law of Large Numbers. Which Reminds me that I need to finish them pretty soon. I am also studying Sheldon Axler to get a better grip over abstract linear algebra, I bought the hardcover from Amazon and intend to read it cover-to-cover, but alas the progress has been a bit slow on that front.

Lastly, I am also into Lecture 4 of CS 229. But I think the progress there will slow down a bit, courtesy of the upcoming placement session from Jan 2017. I will keep updating my plans here. See you soon.
