Why book though? I always thought courses are better in the sense they are hands on and easily updated. Andrew Ang’s machine learning code is gold standard

For me, most courses move too slow and it is really hard to find anything specific from watched videos.

With books & written tutorials, I can scan whole page in 1-2 seconds and skip if needed. And if need to retrieve information from previous sections, I can either use find command. In case of physical books, it is still faster then scanning through videos.

Ah yeah, makes sense too
