there is some truth to this but some areas of math do really benefit from just raw memorization. At a certain point, remembering the definitions and the statements of theorems may not be so trivial, and having them in your head makes it much easier to solve problems.
- SunghoYahng 7y agoI agree here. Actually, in most cases, it was enough to know only the definitions. I could come up with applications from definitions on the spot. The thing to watch out for is to get used to the way to solve problems and forget the definitions. I think this is a more frequent occurrence (especially when preparing for the exam.) Then the one will get trouble if they need other applications.
