I started learning java.. and I stopped after playing with user input. It was too much trouble at the time. Oh well, same thing I did the first time I looked at C++.

What is C++?
like Axon said
Well theres a difference there, if you would already know something like C++ Java cant be difficult its just syntax learning ( includes getting to know functions etc as well)...Don't take a negative attitude towards it or you will never like it (that doesn't only go for Java )... I just learned java over the summer, but with a great c++ background it was a breeze. I picked up "Beginning Java 2" by Horton and "Java in a nutshell" (O'reilly series), and I felt comfortable with the syntax within a week - everything else is the same - computer science.
Once you get the feeling of programming the rest isnt too difficult again, at least for me that is...

another thing why I love java is that I do 75% of my coding in a windows environment: for c++ I use MSVC++ and when I have to ported over to unix, I always have a bunch of errors that need fixing...with java (coded in JBuilder) it works right away good ol' cross platform language

what i really like about Java is Eclipse . I type 3 or 4 lines of code, click a couple menu options and BAM! i have a 30 lines of code and a functional java class. Or i highlight some existing code, click some refactoring options and BOOM, i have new classes/functions with all instance and references in my project updated.
...and just for completeness,... POW, BIFF, ZAP

Well, he's right. The reason we return int in C is because that's what the standard says. In Java, it's just void.

I got to agree with Perspective, Eclipse is the nicest Java IDE (2nd nicest overall) I've ever used. I have never had a compile error because it catches them all before I compile. Honestly its like having some hyper-attentive detail person watching over your shoulder for when you forget some minor thing. That and it will do so much of the mundane for you.
I like JCreator.
Just had my first test about Java and yeeey i have an A+ on the test .
Afterall its a funny language thanks guys for just supporting me back then .

Always keep an open mind... C and C++ are not always the best...
