General discussions / Effective Studying Method?

« on: October 07, 2018, 07:07:24 pm »

I am new to SFML and somewhere between beginner and intermediate c++.
I am using this e-book to explore SFML and become familiar with it's library.
I am curious the opinion of yours on an effective way of studying to become more efficient.
The primary reason I want to ask this question is because I am concerned about time.
Last time I went through a book, it took me a year to finish it. That is far too long. Granted it was my first beginning into c++.
 I would like to finish this book in a month's time or less.

For example, should I write the code manually as the book presents it for the example project?
Or, should I just download the code and open it with visual studio to study what they did?

Thanks in advance for any opinions of how to approach this.

Hello. I am new to SFML. Intermediate c++.

I just finished tutorial for SFML and just have a curiosity of how the code would look if I were to generate the green circle inside of the .exe window instead of the rendered window.
