I "learned" about them for quantum computing (I think that's mostly linear algebra). I was kind of disappointed they're just vectors I somehow expected them to do something weird (based off the name).

My experience with eigenstuff has been kind of a slow burn. At first it feels like "that's it?", then you do a bunch of tedious calculations that just kind of suck to do... But as you keep going they keep popping up in ways that lead to some really nice results in my opinion.

I guess it's the same for me but I just kind of think of it as vector stuff not eigen* stuff.
