Abstact Algebra: why the proofs and problems of group theory are so non-intuitive to me. How should I approach it?
I'm struggling to understand abstract algebra, specifically group theory. The proofs and problems just don't seem intuitive to me. How should I approach this?
Well, abstract algebra can be challenging, but there are some things you can do to make it more manageable. One approach is to focus on the definitions and properties of groups, rather than just the proofs and problems themselves. Another strategy is to work through lots of practice problems and examples to build your intuition.
