    What Hacker News says

      I am of the opinion that you learn more when you actually use the language that you are trying to learn. Not only that, it gives you new perspectives and provides newer ways to think.

      I am not talking about books that teaches you the API and frameworks and tells you how to accomplish something in the real-world, like a React or Django book.

      I am looking for suggestions of books where programming (not framework/standard library API calling) is used to accomplish something.

      Any language is fine. Any MOOC or playlist is fine, too.

      Some examples:

      1. Nature of Code

      2. Classic Computer Science Problems in Python

      3. Math Adventures with Python

      4. Realm of Racket

      5. Digital Signal Processing in Python by Allen Downey

      6. Python Playground by Mahesh Venkitachalam

      7. Hands-on Rust by Herbert Wolverson

      Just finished 'Subtle is the Lord - The Science and Life of Albert Einstein' by Abraham Pais. Easily the best biography of Einstein.

      Currently reading: 'Inhibitor Phase' by Alastair Reynolds (60% read), 'Wayward' by Hannah Mathewson (50%), '10,000 Light Years from Home' by James Tiptree Jnr (50%), 'Rust for Rustaceans' by Jon Gjengset (20%), and 'Hands-on Rust' by Herbert Wolverson (10%).
