Getting stuck on learning Java.

[KenyanRaphael]

I've been teaching myself java using youtube videos of Starnford Engineering Everywhere. So far its been good, till the code started getting complicated and i got stuck.
I need advice on how best to learn java.

Top of this forum section Starting "Java" [Java tutorials / resources / faq] isn't that enough?

Hi Kenyan,

Well i don,t know your level in programming.If you are beginner to oops programming languages.You should learn oops concept first.But if you know oops concept already then it would be easier to go with java language or any other oops based language.

oops concept are:- Abstraction,Encapsulation,Inheritance,Modularity,Polymorphism

After oops concept go with book (Head First Java) by Kathy Sierra & Bert Bates
or you go directly with this book.
