Some knowledge may seem very easy at first sight, but you should not look down on it. Becasue it could be the cornerstone for future. For example, I didn’t learn the simplex algorithm well for I thought it was easy. Just follow the sequence and you will solve a problem. However, in the future you will know many difficult theories and algorithms are based on it. If you didn’t lay a solid foundation on simplex algorithm, you will be fuzzled in future learning.
