In an effort to encourage myself to learn Java on my free time, I'm planning to post here about my progress. So far, I've watched a very introductory lecture on Stanford's "Engineering Everywhere" site, bought a book associated with that course, read the first chapter and completed the exercises. Today, I'm downloading and installing Java on my laptop at home, so that I can work here too. Some links:
The Art and Science of Java
"Engineering Everywhere" Introduction to Computer Science
Eclipse
Wish me luck!
Update: I've downloaded Eclipse and the materials from Stanford. I'm going to spend a bit more time tonight reading from the Java book and hopefully get to the exercises before tomorrow.
good luck.
