you'll definitely find this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhgwIhB58PA interesting. Here they discuss the (lack of)efficacy of "visual learning"

> Even using recursion is rarely a good idea as you loose control with your memory layout.

Used recursion at tons of Codeforces / ICPC problems with some caching(commonly known as "dynamic programming")

To name a few concepts: "Permutation & Combination", "Proofs with induction", "Probability". I did learn some of them from university courses, but writing code for them(in terms of coding problems) helped cement few of the them for me.

I used to do some "competitive programming" back in university - which I think helped me grasp quite a few Mathematics concepts.

Thanks for sharing. Hope you’re doing well now. Wondering where do you write daily, is it like a physical diary or digitally?

I’ve started writing of late, but I like writing on a physical diary. The only problem I’ve with physical diary is searching the entries based on a word - which I often find myself in the need of.

> A few years ago I was excited every time I saw such concepts. Now it makes me tired.

Spot on. Except for me I got tired of them after a few months.

A bit tangential question.

> I read it once and took some notes.

Curious to know how you go about taking notes for the books you read.
