LL 24

 This week I watched an interesting video on convolutions, a convolution is a way of combining two lists of numbers in which you reverse the order of one list, align the first item of one list with the last of the other, multiply then "slide" one over so that two items now alighn, multiply add the two results then slide again and repeat until the process is complete. It's usefull for probibility and image proccesing.

I'm also reading a book called seven tipping points that saved the world, it's currently talking about the battle of britain and how britain useddeception and exeptional planning to defeat the germans who had more expirience, money, aircraft ect.

  This week I learned about the quantum uncertainty principle, the more certain you are about the speed of a quantum particle the less certain you can be about it's position and vice-versa. I also learned about knot theory and the möbius strip, a two dimensional object in three dimensional space with one side! 

I read more of the count of monte Cristo, which I'm having trouble following but the count just saved someone from a horse accident I think he caused.
