( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
in my opinion: you gave the only suitable answer. Find Real World Problems (to solve). I've learned that I always buy books when I don't need them (but I do want to learn about it..), and usually I don't read them (at that time). Or, if I do read them right after I buy them, it seems I don't fully understand them, or the books seems too difficult.

If for instance months later I get a project assigned where I need to apply for instance the knowlegde I couldn't grasp before... at the end of the project I feel immensly enlightened (of course after reading the book). Because:
* I really understand most parts of the book I bought months ago
* I truely feel I've evolved (because my code 'looks' better)
* All code I wrote before the project looks yukkie ;-) (but that's just my personal experience)

so arc_of_descent++ !

And to all you book loving junkies: start looking for problems! first try to solve them in a way that's not too difficult for you (to understand). And after that: try to improve your script ;-)

to ask a question is a moment of shame
to remain ignorant is a lifelong shame

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
