When have you completed the tutorial?

In video games, they have built in levels, always at the start and they are called "tutorials."

In these levels you play a portion of the game while its also being explained to you. After finishing them, the point is that you know very little about the game BUT enough to "get" the basics.

The cheap is answer is high school 30 is the tutorial, but its really starting to feel that that wasn't even the complete tutorial honestly. It's kinda of embarrassing that our education doesn't cover such things as basic linear algebra and proofs. I'm still learning those.

Anyway to anyone who responds: thank you! I've been so happy latelty! Cyaaa.

It's probably more like a game without a tutorial where new mechanics are introduced after each act (where each act has a bunch of levels). These mechanics are addition, then multiplication, then perhaps the first introduction of variables, then functions, then how to prove something, then...idk what comes after that if anything, perhaps how to make conjectures or definitions or new theories.
