A Programmer's Introduction to Mathematics
I have a genuine question which might sound dumb but I really do wonder.<p>How do you actually read math, physics and programming books?<p>Reading them the same way as you&#x27;d read a novel doesn&#x27;t seem right.
I try to go chapter after chapter and make notes but I often get bored because I don&#x27;t see the usage in my real life coding. Maybe I&#x27;m not working on problems that are challenging enough?
Also after few chapters it often turns into a &quot;job&quot; of finishing the book. I don&#x27;t have the pleasure of learning new stuff anymore.<p>Do you really finish such books? What am I doing wrong?
