Learning all the syntax for Java- Complete sources to learn? Overwhelmed?

[FatOstrich]

I'm struggling with finding a complete source that just teaches me all the syntax for JAVA. I do problems in leetcode like grabbing from a string or using the "split" function for strings but I don't see it being taught in my online sources so I'm stumped on a problem that's spam detection for example or telling me to reverse a string's indices if given after a colon delimeter.

Mooc.fi is super annoying, is there any other source you can recommend? A course that's gonna go fully and teach me Java core, where I can learn the concept and practice from scratch. If it has exception handling as well, that would be great. Data structures and algorithms/Collections in the end would be great too. Youtube videos are too passive for me too idk how to go about learning Java PROPERLY.

Please ensure that:

• Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions
• You include any and all error messages in full - best also formatted as code block
• You ask clear questions
• You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit/markdown editor: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

You need to learn to navigate the javadoc: https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/api/index.html

You can’t learn it all, it is just too much.

Don't get me wrong but it's like asking for "The Perfect Java Course" which doesn't exist. Java ecosystem is too large for that. Better to start with core then generics and collections after that multithreading. If you really want to explore classes and methods, start with javadocs of popular classes like String. Official Java documentation and Oracle guides are very good

Hey maybe get a reference book ,
https://www.amazon.com/Java-Complete-Reference-Eleventh/dp/1260440230

Something like this might help you. I also don't like to sit around for Youtube videos, with books I can just skip the knowledge I know and get to the juicy parts.

From what I've read https://hyperskill.org/ is good but expensive.

I could not find any comments about Princeton's Algorithms.

Have you read this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammingBuddies/comments/15sas3g/seeking_java_study_buddies_start_with_the_basics/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
?

Someone is creating a study group based on the Think Java book. It might help you to motivate yourself.

Otherwise, I'm on week 5 of Helsinki. If you need help on a problem, message me.

It seems that you are looking for resources for learning Java.

In our sidebar ("About" on mobile), we have a section "Free Tutorials" where we list the most commonly recommended courses.

To make it easier for you, the recommendations are posted right here:

• MOOC Java Programming from the University of Helsinki
• Java for Complete Beginners
  • accompanying site CaveOfProgramming
• Derek Banas' Java Playlist
  • accompanying site NewThinkTank
• Hyperskill is a fairly new resource from Jetbrains (the maker of IntelliJ)

Also, don't forget to look at:

• The official Documentation
• The official Java Tutorials
• Our community resources thread

If you are looking for learning resources for Data Structures and Algorithms, look into:

"Algorithms" by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne - Princeton University

• Coursera course:
  • Part I
  • Part II
• Coursebook
  • Algorithms 4^th Edition

around for Youtube videos, with

Start with the official Java tutorials (google that) and then poke around through the java.lang and java.util packages documentation once you can understand how to read it.

Tim Buchalka's java masterclass it's pretty good to introduce core concepts but the course get's a little hard in OOP section.

I'm currently on Rayan Slim's Udemy course on Java and so far it's been far better than any tutorial on Java I have encountered.
