gollark: Complex analysis is quite hard, I believe.
gollark: Basic definition, arithmetic operations, conjugates, geometric form, Euler's relation, applications to weird serieseseses, roots of unity, roots of polynomials, sort of thing.
gollark: You could go through it in maybe 15 minutes, but not *teach* it that well.
gollark: A-level calculus is just a few differentiation rules and ææææ integration.
gollark: I guess it's fairly okay a s long as you don't mind being remembered for it in a ridiculously specific niche.
