A Noob Mathematician

Mathematics,
without the gatekeeping.

Started by Wai Yan Tun Oo. Long-form explanations, honest derivations and interactive tools — written for people who want to actually understand the idea, not memorise the formula.

Interactive visualisers

Concepts that are much easier to grasp when you can move them around.

Visualiser

Bohr–Mollerup

The conditions under which a function is forced to be the gamma function. Useful because the theorem is almost impossible to picture from the statement alone.

Visualiser

Shrinkage

A visual explanation of dimensional analysis — what it means for a quantity to scale, and why the units have to balance.

Simulation

BNN Medical Simulation

An interactive simulation built around a medical imaging model, for seeing the model behave rather than only reading about it.

Interactive Sandbox

Adjust parameters in real-time to explore how damping and frequency govern waveform decay.
