Do programmers write notes

Question

So as I'm doing my courses I'm writing notes to help me remember things is that good or bad or a smart idea

Answer 1

I do. I write a lot of notes. Not necessarily reread them but it helps me to remember and getting things clear. of course i do also write comments in code but they have a different purpose : clearification of the code for the next reader.

Answer 2

the only notes I make are the comments in my practice code.
practice code > notes
