I'm not suggesting that you can fully learn math in this way. My point is that the approach you take can boost your confidence and motivate you to progress further. Of course, some people don’t need that kind of push or entry point.
I've seen other great examples of this from good professors. For instance, in probability and statistics courses, we would validate our results by combining theoretical concepts with simple Monte Carlo simulations to ensure they matched.

Worse than that, what may be trash to you at one point in time may be gold at another, and vise versa. It's unfortunate, but I think this is true in any learning process. There's lots of great programming articles on Medium, but you're more likely to learn garbage, and even more likely to not know you are.
