01

Read and understand

Read the yarrow and Six Lines dossiers, separating figure, judgment and line text. Record bottom-up numbering and the edition used.

02

Practice

Choose a hexagram, label component trigrams and six positions, then change one specified line and record the structural difference.

03

Output and reflection

Output: a change record reproducible by another reader from your numbering alone. State which end starts the numbering rather than relying on visual guesswork.
