Answer 17

Reinvent ideas and make an algorithm then syntactically keep on testion various expressions. More one connects the coordinates, graph, arithmetic, geometry, matrices it becomes a floating vision in front of your eyes.

Probably a good balance of the two.

Answer 20

A good programmer is someone who is constantly learning. they have prior knowledge but they dont get overly confident in their skills. they are looking to improve every aspect of themselves. you must be a probelm solver and pay great attention to details. Ultimately it is someone who can read and communicate why a code is a certain way.
