The idea is unadulterated horsesh*t. Even some of the cretinous
cranks
who post here can solve a linear equation ONCE IT HAS BEEN FORMULATED.
What is IMPORTANT is learning how to take a verbal description of the
problem
and then to FORMULATE the equations. It takes zero intelligence to
mindlessly
follow an algorithm for solving linear equations (or any other purely
mechanical
algorithmic procedure). What matters for the real world is being able
to correctly
formulate the problem. |
