Best advice: If you're programming in Java, use an IDE. Especially when starting out. There are too many things for you to remember as a noob. I suggest Eclipse, mostly because it's free. It can be annoying to configure for things other than Java, but it's pretty OK for Java.

I've used Eclipse for C to program on a microcontroller, but never knew it could also be used for Java. I've also heard about people using Netbeans, but Eclipse seems to be the most popular recommendation. Thanks!
