The extremely literal judge · A reading order for this chapter

One thing at a time

Start with the cake-scale story. You only need to read one small piece at a time. If you are in the Fermat story, start with Story depth, then the words listed before the chapter.

In simpler words

You do not need to know Lean, symbols or university mathematics to begin. Definitions come first in the small stories.

A small clue
