What are we calling advanced math? There comes a point where I personally find it much easier to avoid examples until I'm problem-solving, since otherwise I'll get stuck in a loop of wondering if the thing I noticed generalizes. Could just be that my working memory is poor, but when I see a real honest number I know I'm in for a grueling day.
