The way I interpreted it was basically an iterated Feynman Algorithm[1]:

1. Write down the problem

2. Think real hard

3. Write down the solution

4. Write down how well it worked

5. GOTO 2

I do something similar using org-mode, and it's useful when, after some time has passed and I need to do the same thing again, I can go back to my notes and not start from scratch again.
