Thanks to Jesse Hoogland for feedback on these exercises.

In learning singular learning theory (SLT), I found it was often much easier to understand by working through examples, rather than try to work through the (fairly technical) theorems in their full generality. These exercises are an attempt to collect the sorts of examples that I worked through to understand SLT.

Before doing these exercises, you should have read the Distilling Singular Learning Theory sequence, watched the SLT summit YouTube videos, or equivalent. The first is a good reference to keep open while solving these problems, perhaps alongside Watanabe's textbook, the Gray Book. Note that some of these exercises cover the basics, which are well-covered in the above distillations [...]

The original text contained 11 footnotes which were omitted from this narration.
