". . . all overlap and coincide in my mind to produce a uniform method for the loop and the bend that I'm not likely to forget."
Beautiful statement.
This is why I have said, and will say many times again, that the combination of different perspectives is beneficial to learning, understanding, the development of intelligence, etc.
How many times have I tried to learn something, had a hard time, finally figured it out, and said to myself, "If only they would have said THIS, I would have understood it immediately."
I say also this: "An education is taken--not given." There is nothing that I can do to teach a person. Whether a person learns something owes itself only to that person who is in charge of taking (from some resource or resources) a thing to be learned. Therefore, by learning something, you have shown yourself to be in charge!
