Hmmm... I can't seem to escape to take notes abou note-taking. But then again, note-taking is a form of PIM.

On practice, writing down the simplest possible examples allows you to get started working on the definitions.
|
|
When you're done with the simplest possible example, you can then start with a more complicated example (relative to the simplest one) until you worked your way to a real mind-boggling example that really made you bang your head to a wall.

As they say, [[id:05a39f96-fb1c-4d71-9be1-fc4c2e251e8f][Start small and improve later]].

On the non-practical side, it is said to be a cultural thing for mathematicians.
|
|
It is an unwritten rule for a reader to immediately write down examples and not pass through the text until they have understood it.
|
|
Providing examples is not an obligation from the author but they may do so for the sake of easier understanding.
|
|
However, to make sure you are paying attention, it is a recommendation that you have to practice this habit.
