How did you learn coding?

[Joonkyu]

Learned coding at a high school club, was mostly copying and pasting HTML tags in the beginning and then discovered my first computer science course in university and then just enjoyed programming in Java. Everything escalated from there fortunately.

I have a very funny story: in 2018 I bought a bot for one social network in PHP for a small amount of money (in dollar equivalent just under $3). After two weeks, I wanted to change one command and just delete the other one. I wrote back to the bot developer but got ignored, the developer doesn't get in touch. I contacted other developers, but they had high prices at that time by my standards (conditional $20, which is like 7 bots, it is definitely a robbery). I opened the original bot file, read and edited manually on an intuitive level and everything worked. After that I watched a couple of tutorials on YouTube, realised that it's not all that complicated, so I learned PHP.

I know you never stop learning, but where does (most of) your knowledge originate from? School lessons? Indian youtube videos? Blogs?
I learnt the most at school cuz I don't have the constancy to learn by myself without having a deadline.

Completely by myself. It's pretty ignorant but I just cannot sit down and be taught by someone else, it's impossible for me.
