Question

Java

Guys, share your experience, who uses what method of teaching to teach himself programming, learn a new language, technology? After reading, I start coding, but after a while what I read is somehow forgotten, remembered in fragments, and there is no depth of knowledge or something, how to overcome this?

Answer 1

encode and read in parallel.

Answer 2

Try to start coding first, and read the documentation as questions arise.

Answer 3

learning by doing
theory, this is to get a set of opportunities)

Answer 4

For learning programming in general, there are a few basic books worth reading. There are few of them, for example "The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs" and a few more. If you already have a good command of the basic ideas in programming, then learning the language is not difficult at all, you just need to try to write it yourself (there are exceptions, for example, Scala or Haskell). Reading code is a very good practice. Because reading code is often much more difficult. When it comes to rapidly developing technology, then books become obsolete even before they are released, and here you need to google and read a lot on the Internet.

Answer 5

Immediately practice and a lot. Better yet, dig deeper and study the issue you are currently working on.
