I've got a bunch of long flights coming up, and I'm looking to stick with my C programming studies while I'm in the air. I've been using CodeAcademy recently, but I'm unsure how to make the most of my time on the plane. I've downloaded a few 6-hour long YouTube tutorials that I can follow along with on VSCode on my laptop, but I'm hoping for more suggestions. Does anyone have recommendations for reading materials or other resources I can use during my travels? I stumbled upon an ebook in the LearnC subreddit, but I'm searching for anything else that might be useful for my flights. Thanks for your help! I sometimes feel a bit inadequate learning to code later in life, but the support here has been great.

If you're looking for reading material, consider getting physical books, which can be quite helpful. They're popular and packed with information, though you won't find any videos in them, unfortunately. Just do a quick search online for C programming books, and you might find some good options!
You might want to consider checking out some good books on C. I recommend 'Effective C'—it's solid! Besides that, don't hesitate to spend time practicing coding during your flights. By the way, where are you heading for all this travel?
Thanks for the book tip! I'm planning on going to Japan for a friend's wedding, then heading to America and Canada to visit family. I'm also hoping to catch up on some coding on the flights.
Sounds like an awesome trip! Make sure to enjoy Japan's culture and food!
That would have been great, but I'm in a bit of a bind finding good English books here in my small village in Italy right before my flight. Maybe I'll find something suitable in America, though!
