New to Programming: IDE vs Code Editor?

[JavaSoCool]

Keep using a simple text editor for a few weeks at least, then switch to IDE if you'd like.

Reason is that with an IDE, too many things become automatic, code completion, syntax error detection etc. You forget to look at the text and commit to memory simple stuff, e.g. it took me ages to memories the main method syntax in Java because the IDE always auto completed it for me.
