gollark: It is called "drafting", yes.
gollark: You should learn to be more independent and to randomly make up things which might work.
gollark: My limit is about three or four per paragraph, that isn't even close.

gollark: Also, for mathy things I can randomly mess around on my calculator to try and numerically work out bits of the problem (which I am *pretty good* at, since I actually know most of the features of said calculator and how to combine them) and for computery things I can probably get somewhat working code done quickly and try and iterate on it.
