Dec 17, 2022 at 10:30 comment added plants @Dave L Renfro, when i say i thought i had the obligation i mean if a person wanted to learn and understand and solve problems and i was the teacher.By trying to first understand and with the help and the reinforcement of understanding try to remember , is a much better way now i think. So, i think each time i read or hear something i should first try to understand and then with this help try to remember. I am not obliged i think to not miss or not forget some words or symbols if the meaning is okay and if the rest is okay and this does not mean my learning is not good , i think it is fine.
Dec 17, 2022 at 10:25 comment added plants @Dave L Renfro, Hi Dave. I think i finally found out why i did not go well in math and learning. I need to understand and remember what i read. When i say understand is like someone asks what does it mean?or, what is the meaning?What is meant by this? I can not teach i think another person how to understand something or how to remember something but i could help i think someone try to overcome some learning problems or problem solving problems or problems related to meaning and understanding. In my mind i thought i had the obligation to teach others how to remember or understand.
Dec 15, 2022 at 12:13 comment added Dave L Renfro I try to remember all of what i read without missing or forgetting a symbol or word --- I couldn't even remember more than about 40% or 50% of the multiplication table (up to $10 \times 10)$ at age 12, and wound up having to invent all sorts of strategies to interpolate between the values I knew. One of the reasons I continued studying math (especially in college, as opposed to science -- physics more specifically -- which I was more interested in during my early teenage years) is that of all the possibilities for a college major, math probably involved the LEAST amount of memorization.
