I'm learning Java

Any advice?

Im using the text "How to Program Java" 3rd ed.

That's a pretty good book. Best advice is to do the tutorials and the "big project" at the end and keep coding. I also don't advise using a fancy IDE because not only is their a learning curve a lot of things can be hidden. Here is a good text editor you can trial for free, http://www.textpad.com.

I'm also a big fan of C++, which I learned before Java, which probably made the transition easy. The same people have a book, "How to Program C/C++." Another good read if you're not familiar with oop is "Thinking in C++." My .02

I personally hate Java (C++ fan) but if thats the book I"m thinking of, it's pretty good.

I've taken a c++ course and now I am re-taking it since I did not keep up the practice and forgot a lot.

I want to get into Java once this C++ course is over, i heard it is much easier that way.
