The best resource I've ever seen for learning synthesis is Syntorial: https://www.syntorial.com/

It teaches you step by step all the aspects of a synth engine: oscillators, wave shapes, amplitude, filters, modulation, unison, FM… But most of all it trains your ear, which allows you to replicate the sound in your head and build it from scratch.

I was curious if this could be doable with jq, and apparently it is:

  jq -j '
    [
      [
        paths(scalars)
        | map(
          if type == "number"
          then "[" + tostring + "]"
          else "." + .
          end
        ) | join("")
      ],
      [
        .. | select(scalars) | @json
      ]
    ]
    | transpose
    | map(join(" = ") + "\n")
    | join("") 
  '

EDIT: Got the string quoting and escaping.

EDIT 2: For those who want to save this script, you can put just the jq code in an executable file with the shebang:

  #!/usr/bin/jq -jf

I recommend The Cartoon Guide to Statistics, as a good way to get into stats. I've taught a class using it work a number of times, and it makes a great first exposure. The equations are there, explained in a really nice way.
