It does sound like "fluffy". Not sure what he means by that. It might mean "not very precise" or "cushy, rather easy". Without more context, hard to say.shiqangpan wrote: ↑Wed Dec 04, 2019 4:15 am It sounds like the lecturer is saying https://youtu.be/qzn8Bz4rzLk?t=3107

Yes, it is. the part of that course is indeed a introductory to help students get some intuition rather than a very precise definition or procedure. Your answer is so helpful!
