Is this good practice for learning to code? /u/Blandxxxxxxx Python Education

I’m new to programming. In the start of a bs se degree.

After learning new concepts (loops, functions, conditions etc) I will have a project to utilize these skills. For example, after learning how to manipulate lists as well as using the random module in python I made a hangman game.

When I have downtime at work I have been just starting a new file and writing these programs again from scratch.

My question is, is this a good technique for learning to code early? Should I be going back and re doing these projects in my spare time? Or should I just be doing extra reading the entire time on new concepts so I’m more familiar with the course material arrives for my classes?

I understand each person learns different, just curious if anyone has any insight as to what they think is has the best efficiency as well as efficacy for learning how to code.

Thanks so much!!
