> Even with a clear problem statement, at intuitive level, your intuition would still cling to those associations (and heaps of Python code you may have read and wrote in your life) - you need to override that at a conscious level.
For the simple problem posed here, I dispute this. I do not need to rely on consciously overriding my intuition in order to replace "print" with "len" in this simple of an example. It's immediately obvious and, frankly, intuitive.
- TeMPOraL 3y agoFWIW, I copy-pasted the example to GPT-4 and played with it a bit, and doing so I noticed that I do need to keep consciously overriding my intuition at all times when reading the output - the moment I stop, I get confused, and have to re-read the last 1-3 lines with even more concentration.
