I used to fish.

He often goes into the math at length, probably frustrating many. For
example, while Python has a map() function the Arduino C/C++ library's
map() is completely different.

In the MicroPython series he goes into the math behind linear
interpolation. Similarly while Python has math.degrees() and
math.radians() he goes into the math rather than taking the easy way.
Which is more valuable in the long run?

Isn't lerp pretty simple to implement I think? I don't remember the
exact code, but it can be done in one line with clamp and basic math
ops.. been a while since I've had to use it like that tho.
