I have been trying my hand at php for quite some time but dont think i have reached the level of expertise i desired.I started reading an ebook and writing down all the code examples present there on my own,which i think is inefficient.
My question is addressed to anyone who’s an expert in any programming language.I just wanna know how do you guys do what you do so well,and as i mentioned in the title,what is the most efficient way to approach a new programming language so as to gain maximum from it making it an enriching experience.I love coding,have studied quite a few languages but left them all at intermediate levels after learning the basics and some advanced portions.
Wanna excel at php,so any tips would be really helpful from any of you highly skilled programmers on the website.
Thanks!

I find that the most useful thing to do when trying to learn in programming is just to work at it. Just looking and copying someone elses code isn’t going to get you very far, you’ll learn faster by trying to attempt something, and you’re probably not going to succeed for a while, but keep working at it, fixing bugs as you go, and it’ll just start to stick.
Also the php.net documentation is pretty fantastic, so just keep that open as you go.
In php, try to make a basic dynamic site, then work your way up.
