Now i want to comment. First, i find it, confusing, a bad job of teaching math. However, it's of utter value to me, for, i have now understand p-adic numbers for the first time!
At least, conceptually. Namely, it's an alternative completion of the rational numbers. Basically, redefining distance, while satisfying some restrictions. Fantastic! Heard p-adic since some 25 years ago. First time having a notion of what it is!
gosh, this is one of the greatest personal learning i had this year, or, in recent years!
