I'm sorry if this comes across as curt, but can't you just decide to not do that? Decide to not look at the examples in the book, but write it from the explanation instead. You could even forego the book and just sit down with a piece of paper and do the work from first principles. You might not come up with the most efficient algorithm, but you'll have a foothold into understanding the one you can then go and look up.

But I would need some 101 knowledge that I couldn’t really find in the books I had, or maybe I wasn’t patient enough in reading them, like somewhere there was a key realization of linear algebra that would have made doing everything from first principles possible, or perhaps I could just read Phong’s original paper.
