Yeah, it's ok when you know the answer (e.g. when you have to provide a proof of some theorem), but when you have a excercise section at the end of the chapter

Yeah, it's ok when you know the answer (e.g. when you have to provide a proof of some theorem), but when you have a excercise section at the end of the chapter some books do not provide answers to those excercises. It's like having unit tests without knowing if the correct solution is e.g. 2 or 5.
- Herring 17y agoI'd say I almost always get 70%+ of the benefit just by having an answer. And there's other techniques that help, eg checking one problem against other problems, getting a bound on your error, asking on forums/mailing lists, etc.
