This will be a video series about basic abstract algebra and group theory. We will keep it basic so that anyone can follow the videoes.

In this first introduction video I try to explain a little around group theory without defining a group. I talk shortly about sets and functions, and in the next videoes I will assume some knowledge about sets and functions between them.

You can read about sets and functions here:

  • Fuck everyone who doesn't appreciate this. If they were actually taking abstract algebra, then they would appreciate the simplicity and straightforwardness of this video. Also, to the bitch who's complaining about the definitions of unordered and different ( @RurouniDizeru )... axioms bro. Axioms.

  • @fsaleh2011 Simplicity and straightforwardness were my goals in this series. Thanks!

  • @truckdawg911 And what if I did? The problem is?

  • Gee,this is awesome. A video about math that is nothing but text and terrible music. This is way better than reading my textbook in a mediocre strip club in a tuesday night.

    Sorry,but the reason I looked up a video on abstract algebra is because hearing a real person explain and rephrase concepts is more useful then reading it. Just point a webcam at your face, and use your voice to explain this stuff without bad music. Thanks

see all

  • I've started this video over 4 times to learn abstract algebra. I bust into a trance/rave dance 4 seconds in, and forget about the math.

  • fuk u

  • @VeritySeeker You are exactly right. This is very simple and to the point. The music is helful and it's done in a clever way. Forget those people who don't like this. This is a one of a kind site for abstract algebra. They should be grateful! It's so well done and there are tons of videos. I wanted to thank you again, a big THANK YOU :)

  • This is very interesting. Never thought math could be like this

  • You have no idea how grateful I am to you for these video tutorials on Groups. I would even pay you for these if you were charging money for it. I Love you!!! :) :)

  • good introduction

  • straightforward and clarifying, i love it

  • mind = blown
