Give me an example.

If you just want to be a cook, then you just need to be able to memorize recipes and the seasonings are not that outrageous.

But if you want to become a famous chef, it is not just about memorizing recipes. You need to know the principles of combining various ingredients, know the subtle differences of the same ingredients in different places of origin, and know the basic ideas of each cuisine, etc. wait.

The former is programming, the latter is linear and discrete.
