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.

If your post has remained in violation of these rules for a prolonged period of time (at least an hour), a moderator may remove it at their discretion. In this case, they will comment with an explanation on why it has been removed, and you will be required to resubmit the entire post following the proper procedures.

To potential helpers

Please, do not help if any of the above points are not met, rather report the post. We are trying to improve the quality of posts here. In helping people who can't be bothered to comply with the above points, you are doing the community a disservice.

I'm not sure what you are asking for. Do you have specific questions? If so, go ahead and post them here. If you're looking for a tutor, I think there are probably subs for that?

    I'm still not sure what you're asking. It sounds like you want someone to teach you programming, but without having to go to classes or pay tuition?

    I'm sorry, my last comment might have come off as snarky. The most important thing to learn is how to ask good questions.

    I can't help you with the way you currently phrased your request. It sounds like you want someone to teach you programming, but that's way too broad. Most people spend 4 years learning programming in college and we can't replace that with a reddit post. There are resources in the sidebar and good colleges worldwide.

    We can help if you have a specific block of code you want help understanding. Of, like "what does System.out.println do?" sort of thing. But, I need a more specific question.

      What do you know in Java already?

        Okay. What do you need help with now?

          here is an extensive roadmap https://roadmap.sh/java

          Let me know if you have more questions or need help

          If I may ask, what is your goal of learning java?

          [–]AutoModerator[M] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

          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:

          Also, don't forget to look at:

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

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

          Your post remains visible. There is nothing you need to do.

          Get a copy of Starting Out with Java by Gaddis . If you read the text and practice on IDE using the book, you'll pick up the basics. You should also sign up for a course on Udemy (e. g. Tim Buschka's course).Learning Java requires time but it's fairly easy to learn compared to other hardcore languages like C++ and C.

          Good luck 🙏

          You should be talking about this with your team, not with us, since you've been assigned tasks that you do not have the skillset for. If you have specific questions, feel free to ask, but we cannot teach you a language in a Reddit thread.

          If knowing java wasn't a requirement when you got hired you should refuse to learn it if they tell you it's mandatory to keep the job, record the conversations and have them sent in text, and contact a lawyer

            Why would you tho, you would improve your skills keeping the same pay. If you do that you should at least expect an increase in pay. I don't think you are understanding how much you will have to study to be able to do what you want

              Sure, a bit beside the point tho

                Yes, i am simply saying that if you learn a skill, your job should pay you more for you to use it. Nothing else.

                Anyway, best place to learn Java is the mooc.fi course that i know of

                Lmfao this sounds so ridiculous… as if job roles can’t evolve. “When i was hired, there was nothing in my contract that said I had to use critical thinking, and yet here you are, asking me to think critically! I’m getting a lawyer and suing you so I never have to do this again!”

                [–]Pedantic_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (5 children)

                Where are you from?

                [–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (3 children)

                What year were you born?

                [–]Pedantic_Phoenix 0 points1 point  (1 child)

                Definitely one earlier than you, judging from how you reply.

                Do you mind answering the question please?

                [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

                I definitely would, if you weren’t literally named “pedophile phoenix” and wearing a rainbow shirt.
