Well, the complexity of mathematical principles is entirely subjective. At 15, you're not really at a point where you can start calling your knowledge 'advanced'. If I were teaching simple movement stuff then I could talk about unit vectors and stuff, but most fifteen year olds don't even know what they are.

Here in the USA we start Algebra 1 at 15. I have already completed both Algebra 1 and 2 at 15 because I took advance classes. I can't really remember if what I learnt in Algebra 1 was enough to use math functions like PI in scripting.

Here's the thing: We do not have 'Algebra I' etc in England. So I don't know much about that.

Hmm, by having two math classes you could settle this. One for using basic math functions to their limits, such as using modulus. The other could then be based more on trig functions to be used to do things such as light effects or circles. This would mean more work on your part, but I tihnk it would be worth it.

What about the people who want to go beyond circles? I'm not going to put something so basic into my advanced classes, dawg. Not unless it's done with matrix multiplication etc.
