Some find it easier to learn when they're just playing around with concepts and code. You'll have to discover which type you belong to. Personally, I prefer to try out concepts and code without pressure. Sort of like doodling. Though I've had to learn certain skills pretty fast due to project deadlines. "Great post, thanks for taking the time to write it!" You're welcome. I think it's been boiling in my mind anyway. You just happen to formalise the question.

I think that my problem is in not taking the time to properly study programming constructs and the like. I whiz through important bits and as a result, get stuck further down the line. Then I just give up. Great post, thanks for taking the time to write it!
