>yes, which is part of the "memorization" part
That's very reductionist, everything would be "memorization" if application of a concept to questions repeatedly is "memorization".
I guess the line is blurred when it comes to certain topics because you've had to have churned through the homework to truly understand the concept but I feel like there's a definite difference between being able to approach a novel problem with the tools you're equipped with and just applying a memorized formula on a question you've seen before. Most of the questions on the actually hard tests in my coursework were the former.
BUT of course there were the tests that were the latter, like remembering the data structures, or just solving a regular integral that we've had pretty much an analogue that were there during the classes. You've gotta test both for knowledge and ingenuity sadly, can't have people passing without having basics memorized.
