yes, it did. I am also self-taught and I am currently taking a submitter off, the fall, I hate my experience with collage so fare. Forchetly I am not in debt and this is so encouraging, I do software development and game dev as a hobby, and I actually learned more about Computer Science by reading the Open Source Textbooks from the OpenTextbook library, GA tech, and I've Lege school contribute to and use these books.

Been following your channel for a few months now and I went to college and got a degree and couldn't really find a job because the degree was learning several different languages but never specializing. That being said, I've been doing a lot of tutorials and watching a lot of your videos got me to realize I needed to pick something to specialize in and have a purpose. Once I get a job in what I'm currently specializing in I can work on other programming skills in my free time. You've been great and I appreciate these videos immensely!

It is funny. With some of your tips, it is like you have a camera watching me and just have to say, do not be this guy. I have most of the no-no's checked: tutorial purgatory, not finishing the tutorial, overwhelming myself with trying to learn everything and then ending up learning nothing. I think I have gotten to the point where I have tried to cram so many different languages into my head, I could not write a Hello World program in any of them now to save my life. My problem is wanting to change careers so bad, I try to learn everything so I can get any job. Now, I cannot get any job. Lesson here, do not be this guy.

The examples in this video describe me accurately. When I discovered Udemy, I was like "Oh wow! So many video courses on what I want to learn! Only $9.99 from $199 but for only 3 days! I better jump on that!" In less than a year, I accumulated over 100 Udemy courses, started most, and completed 2. I got sucked into Udemy's mastermind marketing and accomplished nothing but wasted money and valuable time. I have since learned my lesson. I've found that once I get the basics out of the way, everything else is just reference. I think about what I want to create, lay the basic foundation, then find resources to help me accomplish what I'm trying to achieve at certain points in my project. For me, this approach is a lot more productive and I learn intermediate and advanced concepts faster because I apply them to my own projects and learn what works best or doesn't work at all, which is 100x better than trying to complete 20+ hour Udemy courses that get me nowhere.

Your advice is spot on. The only way to solidify what you’ve learned is to build. It’s like you can’t be fearful of the pitfalls and walls you’ll hit along the way because that’s what makes you a good programmer/developer. The desire to build is organic. It’s that little voice nagging you telling you “this tutorial is great but...”.

I like your Matrix analogy. If only learning was that quick and easy eh? I spent the first year of college wondering why the hell I wasn't able to retain the stuff I was learning in lectures. I felt like I was not learning anything, until I realized that there's this moment when I hear a concept in class, and think " yeah, I understand that ", but then month later I had completely forgotten how the concept worked and had to go back into my notes and study them 'all over again', otherwise I couldn't even complete assignments that had questions involving the concept. Cramming might be an option for people who have not studied for upcoming exams but I feel that you don't really understand a subject on a practical level until, on some level, you've taken it apart, worked lots of examples, including ones which are beyond your skill level, made mistakes, got into a rut, learned how to fix what you broke, understood your mistakes etc. After repeating this many times over at that point you begin having a good 'understanding' of the thing, and you can add it to your problem solving/item building toolkit.

I really adore you and your content, Andy. I'm breaking into the field right now as a full stack developer and am now beginning to go down the path of learning React. This type of stuff is really helpful to me, because you hit points that people actually need to hear. I'm really stoked about the life-long learning aspect of programming and that's ultimately what drew me into the field in the first place. I'm so in love with the ability to be able to go on any computer and utilizing my brain to create things. It's so much nicer than having to go back to construction and wear my body down.

Good advice. I've been out of the programming env for awhile and am getting back into it for fun. But I wholeheartedly agree with your strategy. I also found that the best thing, for me, was to have a small project that motivates you at the start of the tutorials and that you can use to apply the knowledge to. There will likely be hard parts to it, but that's good because it will force you to understand the technology much more deeply, which is the whole point.

Don't be passive, wow such simple advice that I admittedly was overlooking. Foolishly, at first I was just observing and trying to suck in the information, but I found as I went through and typed out the code in Pycharms along the way it was helping more. Simple, not complex concept, great. However, hearing you codify it the way you did with the tennis analogy was spot on and helped cement that behavior for me. Thanks for the gem!

I agree with taking notes. I currently go through some Code Cademy to get fundamentals of languages. I take decent notes and it helps to read over them along the way. It's a very bad idea to try to work on a tutorial for 8 hours. Best thing I've heard is to push yourself. That could be by doing other people's exercises or better yet, your own. If you can design your own program and code it you'll learn so much.

tutorials are good for overview and quick brush up. but you always need to supplement that with your own mini-projects. you need to keep doing it looking for ways to improve your old code, clean it up, add new functions, etc. just like when you write something on paper (back in the days when people used pens), it tends to go into your brain more than just using your eyes and ears. I think it was Feynman who said you need to teach it to be able to learn it.

Hi, have caught a number of your videos over the past year and really appreciate them. Thank you! All good stuff in this video but the major problem I run into more often than not w tutorials as a beginner isn't addressed here... when I'm watching such tutorials as well as in courses... What works for the tutor fails for me... What a lot of tutorials omit is how to figure out trouble shooting when things don't go how they're supposed to. For example I can't finish my coursera course because following specific instructions to share my Jupyter Notebook in Watson studio give me a link but doesn't allow it to be seen by others.... Or in a couple Pandas tutorials the way to build a regression object doesn't give accurate outputs in the practice exercise that goes along with the tutorial... Regardless of what area of programming one is interested in, what is your general advice when looking up documentation, stackoverflow... etc. isn't connecting the dots??

As electrical engineering student I had my first experience with programming almost 9 years ago with C++. After long time I started to study on my own. I watched two tutorials. One from udeny and one from free code camp. I keept notes and then I started to make my own simple programs. I repeat: simple, in order to understand what I was tought from tutorials. Although there are things that I haven't understand until now, Like setters, getters, pointers and others. I do it as hobby and I like it. A friend gave a book of C and I read it because it has a lot of similarities with C++. I believe that a book is much better source of knowledge because of the many examples. Soon I will buy another one for c++. My plan for the next months is to learn the basics and then maybe I will go for python which looks more "modern". Don't forget: don't be hurry, be patient , keep notes and take actions.

What I have found to be most helpful is to do small junk programs. So watch a tutorial on one new idea or command and then write a small program that uses that. It can be something as simple as a number guessing game, or input a few numbers and find the largest. But the goal should be to use the new idea / command in that code, even if there is a better way to do it. It's one thing to read, but another to actually implement what you are reading into a project.

any suggestions on websites or platforms I could use to practice what I learned from reading/self studying programming as a true beginner to programming. I am looking to transition into a career as a security software developer. Thanks

I have found learning / progress diaries to be invaluable. I swear every one of you is going to look at an entry from just a few days back and say: "WTF! Did I really learn that?".

I usually get stuck with the very beginning, configuring environment. I do everything as in tutorial, but the result is Eclipse does not recognise my programming language or cannot run Tomcat. So frustrating

Is there any appropriate way of taking notes while learning to code , because sometimes it becomes like theoretical concept that I'll going to cram.. instead gaining practical knowledge ... Which I'll forget and will have to repeat that basic concept.

The coolest moments in tuts are: "ah, I know that...." and you code the entire segment without blinking, only to find out that the instructor put in his own twist.... yet you score another point, because that is maybe how your future software colleagues may have done it!

Really took me a while to learn that lol the way my instructor may code it isn't the only way to code it. There's more than one way to skin a cat.

Wow you really got me there and I am so thankful for you doing this videos. Tutorials is not everything you have to work your ass out too to make sure to yourself that the things you learned in those tutorials is truly understood by you. I am really in loop here, as a student, and trying to learn by myself with the fundamentals of my subjects (the pain in uni coz instructor expects you to know their subjects more than them idk) this really hit me awake so now I will start to change my routine. Thank you again! I just found your channel and I love your videos it is so helpful to a lost kid like me haha

Writing down immediately the tiniest things from a tutorial reinforces actual learning and understanding . This has been proven scientifically.

I realized the Paradox of choice when learning code is a bad thing. Having said that, you can also find the best instructor for your learning type and move slowly through the content - really understanding the material. Sometimes I repeat exercises over and over, it's amazing how much you think you understand vs how much is understood.
