How do you manage your time when learning to program?

I know programming is hard to master because of its complexity, but how do you manage your own time.

Like watching TV shows on the internet and playing your online games, using social networking sites, reading the news and etc. in a single day (24 hours) and how did you sum up all the learning's?

If you wanna be a good coder you have to the following:

- Give up your social life (if ever had one)
- Give up dreams about getting a girlfriend
- Give up on sixpack and big mucsles
- Be fat or very skinny

I'm not the best, and I am try to enroll in a tech/trade High School for freshmen year next year 🤗 ... So I guess I would have better management time.

On Friday - Sunday

• Wake up, brush, eat a banana, jog/workout, comeback for shower, then eat breakfast
  


• Study for next week test
  


• Code or read up on some programing-- do this for 1.5hrs-3.5hrs
  


• Workout/sports-- just go outside
  


• Come home , study for 3 hrs
  


• Code/learn code for 2hrs
  


• Read, watch tv, go on devices, or stay codding until I sleep.
  

My week days are like that but they involve more studying and code learning. I can still socialize considering we have things like code club, free study hall, after school sports and events, etc.

Currently I am trying to learn Python, Javascript, PHP, and J.Query. I feel more comfortable with Python and PHP and somewhat J.Query. 🤮

[Mr. Dr. Prof. Patrick]

read a book for an hour a day is fine, programming is only as demanding as you allow it to be, not like you will be working on any time required project unless it's your job

[AlmightyHades]

I usually try to spend maybe 2-3 hours coding:
30 mins-1 hour: Learning a concept or lesson
Rest of the time: Just code and make something out of what I learned.

I do this about twice a week.

[SupremeBot]

Well, I start off by learning how to spell language.

[Maax]

there isn't enough time in the day to do it all

[SIM-1676753]

I have dual monitors, so I use one for media and one for coding. I code during the parts that are tedious / repetitive.

[Pharmacist]

Well, for me, I can be awake for 12 hours at a time, and late at night, you have nothing to so (Like now) so I try coding.
I'm honestly getting better in, VB.net. I've been attempting to learn since Jan and I've already coded a few simple things, (IP grabber, Keylogger, Netseal Stealer, Chrome Stealer)

So If you're dedicating about 4 hours a day to purely learning to code, depending on how fast of a learner you are, it shouldn't take that long in my opinion.

[Yuikoro]

This is what I do:

• Wake up
  


• Go to school
  


• Do school stuff (Depending on the day, I might have time for some programming)
  


• Come home
  


• Program
  


• Eat and watch some YouTube
  


• Back to programming
  


• Shower
  


• Homework
  


• Program until I get tired
  


• Snacks and YouTube again
  


• Head to bed, more YouTube
  

Any friends that I have are online and I contact them through Skype. On Saturdays, I might end up playing CS:GO or something, usually 2 or 3 games. How long I play is also dependent on the type of project. If it's a great idea, I normally dedicate all my time to programming. If it's just an "feel like doing it and posting it here later" project, then I don't really care how long I play for.

Not to mention, if you just YouTube up a playlist of a bunch songs, programming becomes fun. Might just be me, but I end up typing to the beat (not in terms of speed but how hard I press the keys. Normally in sync with a small headbang and/or sway). Makes the time fly.

[Exclusⅰve]

Manage time? If you're learning a language you allocate your resources to the language. Having a single focus is key for understanding, don't cram everything at once so usually 7 hours or so a day then you do whatever you normally do. So just coding in other languages and college.

[chossy]

My day would be something like this.

Roll a phat one.
Choose a really hard program to make in a new language.
Completely ignore all coding rules and dive right in.
Roll a phat one.
Watch youtube videos on the subject.
Roll a phat one.
Start coding.
Roll a phat one.
Balls up said coding.
Roll a phat one.
Repeat for about a month and give up

If your code doesn't work, try to rest for a couple of hours and when you wake up you will think of another way to fix the error
