Unironically my advice to people asking how to get started programming (at a c++ shop) included going through everything on cppreference.com and using every function in a playground at least once.
When learning a new human language, it’s good practice to also learn sentences and practice speaking and writing, not just rote vocabulary memorization.

Isn’t that like telling someone to write every word down? And as such does not really help understand things? It trains how to type the syntax.
If it wasn’t clear, I meant to do something with each function in some test code and understand it… Not just type it in…
