Mechanical memory refers to the ability to recall things immediately, so it is also called immediate memory. That is, if we don't recognize the things we just recognized, we will immediately forget them; For example, look up a phone number that you are not familiar with before and remember it until you finish dialing it. If you do not reuse such a number frequently, you will soon forget it. [1]
