Today is my 7 months since i am learning
Java , I have completed 3 books for Java till now
1.Java Software Solutions: Foundations of Program Design
2.Java How To Program
3.Head First Java
My average of learning is 3 Hours Daily , TOTAL Of learning till now is : ( 630 hours ) .
Sometime I have a feeling that i am most completed programmer in the world ( i think that i can make everything ) and sometime i have a feeling that i am the worst programmer in the world (LoL).
I also completed Java Lynda.com (Fundamentals & Advance) Tutorials and Thenewboston tutorials i also started to learn Android development 1 months ago .
I am hobbyist and i don't have teacher or someone else to advice me what to do .
My question is should i practice programming because a lot of people are saying to me its your time just to practice , practice , practice some other people are saying just read a lot of books
My goal is to become professional programmer .
If i should go with other books which books should i continue ? some advised me to start with head first
pattern and others told me to continue with thinking in Java .
I Also noticed some programmers read 3 books monthly how is this possible ? Are they just reading and not practicing the examples ?
I also want to know about game programming should i know the basic of trigonometry , algebra , physics to make game like mario 2d or should i become advance in math . My math is not very good
Thank you
