1. Deep for a problem solver Powerful strategies for solving problems are deep. Important lemmas which widely appear in the structure of arguments are deep. Those steps in the argument which make much progress are deep. Conjectures could be deep the same way that arguments could be deep. Deep is simple not complicated; because it can combine with many ideas. Deep is not always easy. Deep could be difficult. Powerful strategies for solving problems are deep.
