What are the pros and cons of learning programming languages from books? And also what is your preference (books/app/websites)?

Question

I toatly understand that any programming language is also subject to practice and which source you opt as doesn't matter untill one understands the logic behind it but just out of curiosity what is your preferred medium and why?Lets talk.

Answer 1

It depends on the book and the work methodology. Many books for me have a lot of inpractical content and far from providing details only worsen the rhythm while reading.

Personally I have used few, I like dynamic content and learning by doing things. In the readings I usually feel bored or restless. Although it only happens to me with books that cover such topics, since I read sci fi books regularly, lol.

Answer 2

I prefer books because i don't have internet connection all day long. But in some point, some online tutorials can make me grasp the concept.
