University courses are no substitute for learning by having things hit you in your face. Nor are they supposed to be. What they can (and hopefully will) do is make it comparatively natural and achievable to _analyse_ what hit you and have the tools and proven chops for designing countermeasures. Even better is having things hit others in the face and administer advice from the peanut galleries. That helps considerably against "task blindness" where you are so stuck on making your solution work that you lose sight of its impact on the overall scheme of things. > Probably it would have been good if I had made good on my intention to > reimplement my Python solutions in Scheme.

Sometimes it's more motivational to learn on the things that count and do the finger exercises at a point of time where they are only moderately annoying rather than a hard challenge. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
