>What is a learning curve?

The basic term for how long it takes to become proficient at a task.
It's a curve because if you graph days studied vs. proficiency it goes
up in a curve slowing down as you become closer to your optimal
proficiency.

(There are actually *three* learning curves associated with any task,
think of them as "beginning", "intermediate", and "expert"; but most
people just think of it as a single curve and that does alright as a
simplification.)
