That book was the one that made me take a major on maths, it's just so beatifully written that i think it is impossible to write a better book about the topic.
On the topic of Linear Algebra I will always recommend Axler's Linear Algebra Done Right, it's a book full of intution and that presents Linear Algebra as what it is, the study of linear transformations between vector spaces.
As an introduction to real analysis i will recommend Abbott's Understanding Analysis, I think it is THE book to start learning real analysis, and after it the usual treatment of rudin, but understanding analysis gives all the background of why we care about all the subtleties of analysis.
Also if this is your first rodeo with proof based mathematics I really liked Hammack's the book of proof, it's a little free book that gets you started with all the logic and basic proof schemas you will need.
I think those would be all my recommendations, you can't go wrong with any of those books, just don't start with baby rudin.
I've been playing Ghost of Tsushima the PS5 version.
I got a PS5 in the mid of my uni semester because I've got some money saved from being a TA, Ghost of Tsushima was the first game that i wanted to try because SAMURAIS!!!. Really been liking all the art direction of the game, it is just beautiful, and coming from being a PC player i have to say that the gameplay experience with the Dualsense is perfect, those adaptative triggers are excellent. The next game I want to try is Bloodborne.
Sorry for going a little off-topic now but I have noted that PS5 doesn't have really that much games, they are mostly PS4 remaster/upgraded versions and that was a little of downer for me. Hope more games release exclusively.
Any game recommendation for the PS5 is welcome.
