I find it to be helpful to actually type in the solutions to the exercises and run them. Sometimes you'll get the answer on the first try, and sometimes it's a little bit trickier than it first looked. You'll never know what you're missing until you have working">working code.
One huge benefit to typing in the exercises yourself if that you get practice debugging. If it's a new language and a new environment, you'll inevitably make mistakes. Getting the solutions to even the simplest problems to work is good practice.

How many of you actually com/tag/work">work out the exercises when learning from a book (any programming related book), I'm currently com/tag/work">working my way through a C++ book and find that some of the exercises I feel I can complete rather easily I skip. Do most people do this? Or do they read the whole book and come back to exercises that looked difficult?
