    Hey guys, I currently have a lot of free time on my hands and would like to learn Java. Where could I start learning Java for free(As a noobie)? Could pay small amounts to learn it but not looking to spend a lot.

    Those videos helped me out a lot. I also watched the stanford computer methodology class lectures on their youtube channel.

    Are you still in school? One nice thing about my school is that it offers computer programming classes such as: computer programming 1 with Alice, computer programming 2 with BlueJ (Java), AP computer science (advanced computer programming with Java, introduces Eclipse IDE), and next year my teacher is introducing another new class called Android App Development which primarily revolves around game development which is really exciting and will be a great learning experience. This is how I plan on actually learning Java (i'm currently enrolled in computer programming 2). It's free, easy to enroll in, and most importantly, very interesting. So yeah hopefully I will be able to take all my newly gained knowledge back to basic RSPS development after actually learning the language itself.

    This is the current IDE we're using in computer programming 2 (pretty user friendly and helps in the process of learning, I definitely recommend it): BlueJ

    Taking classes through your school is, in my opinion, the best way of learning Java and is what I would recommend. Best of luck finding something that works for you man.

    If you're good at tort learning, then I'd definitely recommend downloading a server source and looking through the code, seeing and attempting to understand how it works. That's what I've done. By no means am I a great / good coder, but through doing that, i've become more than adept. Goodluck.

    put in a lot of effort, write lots of code (including the code in the above tutorials, don't copy and paste it)

    For the basics:


    When you think you have the hang of it:


    Be sure to take notes and take breaks. Don't try to cram everything in to your mind at once.
