Accelerate your FEM software learning with this tip

Here's one tip from my current adventure with an FEM software.

Read the documentation at least 5 times. And read it all at different
times and different stage of your learning.

Studying the documentation before begining is common. It's natural to
do that at time.

But the biggest benefit of the help documentation will come at the
middle stage of learning. It is at this stage when you are fairly
comfortable with the software, seeing the help document will reveal
nuggets of information that went unnoticed at the begining.

As I went through this exercise, I learnt lot of small stuff in the
FEM software that I am working on.

So revisit the help documentation at different stages in your
learning, it will help you accelerate your learning without any extra
efforts.
