How should I separate formulas and calculations in a maths-heavy case?
My notes become messy in cases with a lot of maths. I usually write the formula and calculations on the same sheet, then lose track of the important numbers. Should the structure, formula and workings go on separate pages?
Ian’s Answer
Provided info + your math SETUP = 1 organized page
Actual calculations (messy) = 2nd, “random” throwaway page
Always keep track of units
Use a table for multi-dimensional info
Keep approach/formula seperate from the actual calcs
Casing Sheets of Paper - Organization
A seperate sheet for each "portion" of the case...with clear locations + methods for title/subject, notes, calculations, takeaways, etc.
Figuring out a location for everything and where each information type should go
Seperate sheet for math calculations
There's much much more, but you get the gist!
