L-system 2 curve shader

Hi,
I've just started L-system DVD 2, it looks really interesting. I have a question thought...

When the curve shader is explained using the equation of a circle it goes so fast and math formulas are just barely explained...I mean for David the breakdown of the formula seems so obvious, but for me, I have no clue what is going on, I would have really appreciated an extra 2 minutes on the subject...




I mean I understand that were looking to fake a half tube normal, but I would really appreciate if someone could help me understand what is really going on, or just point me to some helpful ressources..My math are soooo far.

Thanks!
