Repetition is the mother of memory. Back in the grade school 1950s we had to repeat the times tables until we mastered them.

Some of my kids had a 4th gradec teacher who required they write the times table through 15 x15 in five minutes in orderto pass. Amazing.

Sadly for me, I was out with Rheumatic Fever when the times tables were being memorized. I never did catch up, and it wasn't until hand-held calculators that I was able to do much with math, including balance a checkbook.
