Default Re: Speed and Intelligence

[ QUOTE ]
No not the class of substances, though that would be an interesting discussion as well.

To what extent does the speed of problem solving reflect innate intelligence, or is simply a matter of repetition and practice is what I am getting at.

I think speed in solving a math based problem is almost as related to knowledge as it is to intelligence. With logic based problems obviously some prior knowledge is far more important than intelligence (of a similar question or way of thinking or w/e).
