thanks all... after I purchase a book, I'll probablly start using eclipse....


YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN A HUGE HELP.. THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK... i


f anyone else knows a book. so I can actually learn how to program and what is going on. (online tutorials help, but usually lacking a lot in certain sections)

Eclipse is too slow for me, but a goog amount of people like it. Use what you find helps you the most.

Like I said, this is a great book for learning Java. It is like a classroom style Q&A and the questions they ask are VERY good.

yeah I was actually gonna get that one... but reading the reviews suggests it's fairly simple.. so i might get through it pretty quickly... just wanted to know a few more.. the other one up there is interesting to me, especially if i put these two together seems to be a good combo.

Thinking In Java?

I have read very good things about it.

Hey, if you have a Fry's near you, they have that Leanring Java book for cheap.
