Do you take notes of what you learn?

I like taking notes, I just feel more safe knowing I have written down everything new I learn and I can check it any time I like. Except from that I also believe writing things down help me learn these better, and because I try to use my own words to describe how things work I understand the concepts better than what I would had if I didn't keep notes. Its true however that it takes a lot of my time to do this, it takes more time to make my notes than actually learn, and I have seen people saying keeping notes isn't needed in programming, that I should spend more time learning and less time taking notes. Whats your opinion?

Karak10 I get it, but community guidelines prefer you ask a programming question rather than an opinion one. I had no say in the making of this rule lol.

Everyone has their own learning styles. Everyone should follow what suits them. Also please this Q&A section only for programming questions! https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/1316935/?ref=app

👑 Prometheus 🇸🇬 well, I didn't ask about pokemons, I asked about if you are taking notes of how the syntax of a language works and stuff like these.

That's the cool thing about coding, you can keep notes by writing actual code. Just try out what you have learned in a small pet project; it's the best way to learn.

For harder topics in terms of understanding and implementation you should have your own notes. But for standard things you can find handbooks online. So it will save time if you follow the same style in stuff that you have read and have quick reference if you get doubt. Also practice is most important thing, after lot of practice in any coding you will find yourself at ease with writing the code.

Notes are useless until practically performed in terms of coding. So go for coding as much rather than taking notes.

shubham kumar I use code to create my notes, so I guess I'm taking notes and practice at same time, I have made my notes into a web page which you can access if you want, just type karak10notes.c1.biz.
