Improvement in the performance of a process comes from the repetition of that process accompanied by a conscious effort to omit the imperfections of the former attempt.

Therefore, the writing of a new work in which, the writer attempts to avoid the error which occurred in prior attempt is of much greater educational value than is the copying of an old project for the purpose of correcting the errors in it. To copy the old project is to

correct a result, to write a new one correctly is to improve a process; and it is this improvement of process that is the real aim.
