TL;DR Summary: Got my AA with a focus in physics nearly a decade ago. Looking to go back and finish what I started, but need to brush up and looking for good resources to do so?
Looking for resources that are thorough that can help me brush up on calculus 1-3, physics 1-2, and possibly computer programming as well (if I have time before I start). It's been nearly a decade since I did this stuff, so while I remember the general concepts, I desperately need to brush up on the math and application of equations for given problems.
I want something that is thorough in the sense that I don't just learn "do x for y situation," but the *why* of that process as well. I want to know this stuff inside and out. I was a 4.0 previously, and intend on keeping it that way (at least as long as possible until the really difficult content)
I used the "demystified" series to prep me for my AA (I had been out of school for years prior to that). While it was ok, I felt like it left a lot out, just sort of skimmed over really basic material, but didn't get in-depth. Hoping for something more comprehensive, that isn't going to leave me wondering "well why does that work that way?" and such.
I need to pick up on my math from the basics of calculus up, from physics 1 up, and for C++ basics. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
