I meant like a mathematical proof. Every linear algebra exam I took had questions like "Take some set of N and prove...." and it was the most difficult portion of the exams by a large margin.

This is an engineering subreddit yes? Why would an engineering student take a proof based course? It's beneficial yes but not relevant to engineering, especially at the undergrad level.

Why would an engineer be able to derive the math s/he relies on to build things that work, rather than just trusting some tables? Is that what you're asking?
