Agreed; it entirely depends on what you're doing. For me, i use it when i n=
eed documentation for an Api or a data structure of some sort. Sometimes i =
will use a tutorial, however it will be for something which gives me the fu=
ndamental basics of what im trying to do as opposed a "how to write [insert=
 app here]". For example, a tutorial on how to write a graphics engine will=
 not teach you much, because the work is done for you. A tutorial on how to=
 use the opengl API ,however, with a focus on learning the fundamental conc=
epts behind it, will teach you a lot.
