Isn't that what calculus (the math course) is?
I mean, I don't recall the exact recipe for most calculus operations, even though I spent hours in college learning them. But I do know that I can build a taylor series* to approximate certain functions, and that it will be pretty quick and have a bounded error.
* Use Wolfram Alpha
- handrous 5y agoMost math classes are kinda that, but you could get a lot more covered if you focused more on "here's a real world problem, 1) what sorts of math do you need to solve it? 2) OK, now solve it and apply the result (you may use the Web, calculators, apps, whatever)" than "here's how you mechanically follow through with that".
