@chengyman2009 well, yes, you can teach yourself this stuff (do not see why not), but it is also new to most people and a bit confusing so it can of course be hard to teach yourself.
there is no way to do math other than to practice. also read the proofs and think about why the results are what they are. to me, there is a lot of rules, but they all make sense because i have not just memorized them but also have taken time to understand WHY they are that way.

hey patrick its jeff, i love ur vids and constantly find myself looking you up for math help, I am however having a difficult time understanding why at time 2:46 the 2^n and 2^n+1 simplify to a value of 2. I just dont see why the denominator loses the 2^n+1, a response would be greater appreciated! thanks

@patrickJMT Dude you are seriously the BEST! I dont know why the books make this soooo complicated. You are awesome! You should make your own math book!

@megaripcord hahahaha
Do you have any videos of a proof for the ratio test?

Thank you so much for these videos, Patrick. I got through Calc 1 (online!) with khanacademy, but he's really lacking in Calc 2. I ended up finding your videos instead. I have a feeling they are going to get me through the rest of the Calc series. All your sequence/series stuff has been so helpful.
