Why not include the required or targeted math lessons needed for the FFmpeg Assembly Lessons in the GitHub repository? It'd be easier for people to get started if everything was in one place :)

NTA but if the assumption is that the reader has only a basic understanding of C programming and wants to contribute to a video codec there is a lot of ground that needs to be covered just to get to how the cooley/tukey algorithm works and even that's just the basic fundamentals.

I read the repo more as "go through this if you want to have a greater understanding of how things work on a lower level inside your computer". In other words, presumably it's not only intended for people who want to contribute to a video codec/other parts of ffmpeg. But I'm also NTA, so could be wrong.
