I enrolled into an undergraduate computer science program and decided to major in data science. I spent over $25K in tuition fees over the span of three years, only to graduate and realize that I wasn't equipped with the skills necessary to land a job in the field. I barely knew how to code, and was unclear about the most basic machine learning concepts. I took some time out to try and learn data science myself -- with the help of YouTube videos, online courses, and tutorials. I realized that all of this knowledge was publicly available on the Internet and could be accessed for free.

It is difficult, perhaps, to link this to neural networks, but the basic intuition of calculus is achieved. If you are looking for a more full treatment of this branch of mathematics, you will want to seek out some more robust learning tools. Here are 3 courses and a textbook to help out, all from MIT's Open Courseware initiative, which will cover everything you need to know about calculus to understand deep learning -- and far beyond.
