[I Spend The Whole Day On The Book, But Just Finished 3/4 Of Chapter2, Is It Too Slow?]

Thanks guys, for your kind advice.

 

I first watched some PHP training videos, and then grabed this book. I have years of programming experience, but not in the area of web development, and not OOP at all. But I know the way to learn a programming language -- to hand-code examples on the book and try it out myself. This is how I am learning now. I will try my best to complete one chapter in 2-3 days. After finishing this book, I will google some PHP scripts and play with them, and grab Larry's OOP PHP book(since PHP frameworks are all about OOP PHP).

 

Whenever I have questions, I will post them on the forum, this forum is great!

Hi Larry,

 

I am reading your PHP & MySQL book now, currently just coming to the end of Chapter 2. For each chapter, I almost need to spend 2 full days to finish! Is my learning speed too slow? I am a bit worried..

I hand-code all the exmples in the book coz I think coding these codes myself is a better experience than just reading and understand the examples( I'm using NetBeans).
