How's the best way to get the most out of studying and studying source code? I'm always reading that looking at source code (and coding in general) is the best way to learn to program. I'm taking stuff of the net and going through it and trying to make sure I can "read" it and trying to see what it does. Is this the correct method? Any advice on how to get the most out of this and studying/practicing/learning a language? Right now, I'm reading and doing the exercises from Learning Perl for Win32. Then, I review what I've learned in the past by writing practice exercises which make use of whatever I'm focusing on (ex., control statements, arrays, etc.). These are similar to technical exercises that a musician does and I'm doing because I'm in the learning stages of the language. I then try to study code but it's usually beyond me. I feel frustrated at times because I'm putting in the time (2-3 hours daily) but I feel like I'm inefficient and that others would get more out of my sessions than me. Any advice? Thanks!
