So I decided to go back to school and learn to do programming...

Question

What do you guys do to make one or more programming languages "stick" inside your head? I spend 6+ hours every day daily reading, studying, doing Java with my zyBook textbook or video tutorials and seem to retain nothing...

So what do you all do, what am I doing wrong? Learning should not be as difficult as it is and I should have more to show for my efforts than I can do.

Answer 1

Write actual code

Answer 2

I would suggest writing down notes or like what Slick said you should do some code and you can use that code later in the future

Answer 3

I would also suggest using w3schools or codeacademy for more information Chad Hughes

Answer 4
