"Yes, especially doing things that are useful to you."

I'd also expand that to say things that lead you in the direction you want to go.

Game development? Healthcare software? Big business? Small business? Big Data and report writing? Database management?

Euler and Math is good - math crosses all boundaries. But Fibonacci isn't as important to UI or Game programming (depending on the game types, of course)
