I like when they go into the simulation/computational solutions before showing the analytical solution. Even much harder problems have very simple computational solutions/simulation "solutions"



especially when the analytical solution is so hard to write that it requires approximations. I always wondered why we spend so much time learning analytical analysis when, once faced with real problems, we have to shortcut it in various, empirical approximations...
