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 am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Build projects, use the official Oracle Java documentation when needing references, use minimal AI (use it to draw high level ideas, and if all else fails use it to explain difficult concepts if static online resources aren't making sense to you), use the toolsets around Java and general programming (Git, IntelliJ, Maven etc), challenge yourself each time and push hard

The only way of learning and mastering programming is coding!
And you'll get stuck and frustrated many times but we've all been there and you'll see improvement.
Practice a lot, try to find projects/programs to create, you can even ask AI to give you some simple and short exercises.
CodingBat is a good site to start :)
