Fluidity in Problem-solving through Notation and Programming
The fluency with a programming interface can greatly aid in understanding various problems. Just like adopting a nice notation in algebra can reveal non-trivial implications, programming can lead to insights by allowing the machine to crunch data and generate plots. There is a potential for the process of using programming tools to become more fluid, akin to the ease of solving algebraic problems on a whiteboard. However, for in-depth mathematical exploration, traditional mediums like paper still hold value, but transitioning to mediums that facilitate simulation and programming could revolutionize problem-solving approaches.
