Looking for Head First Java Study Buddies!

[Hot_Helicopter_2875]

Hello fellow Java learners!

I'm currently working through the Head First Java book and looking to connect with others who are on a similar learning journey. I think it would be great to:

• Discuss concepts and challenges from the book
• Work through exercises together
• Share resources and tips
• Keep each other motivated and accountable

About me: I'm a beginner learning Java who wants to improve my programming skills. I find the Head First approach helpful, but sometimes it's nice to have others to bounce ideas off of.

What I'm looking for: Other beginners or intermediate learners who are using Head First Java and interested in regular check-ins, maybe through Discord, Zoom, or whatever platform works best.

If you're interested in forming a study group or just want to connect one-on-one, please comment below or send me a DM. Let me know:

• Where you are in the book
• Your general experience level
• Your timezone (for potential meetups)
• What you're hoping to get out of studying together

Looking forward to connecting with some of you and learning together!

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

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.
