Hey guys, recently I decided to start learning java. It actually scares me, because it looks a bit hard, i never got the thing with declarations and stuff. I know c++ pretty good though, so i'm familiarized with programming. But i think java is a bit different. So if you guys can show me some java tutorials, but like the ones where the narrator explains you everything. Just like i was a total beginner, because i want to understand it well.
Edit: i would expect an answer from Puckey :3

Don't hate on the only programming language I know. ;__;
Learn to love it. Try being a PHP guy in reddit.com/r/programming

Well I like java. If it's because I don't know anything else, I don't wanna know.

I think Java would be interesting and fun to use, as you can reach out to a large market. For example, I didn't realise that Java applications run in a VM. That VM is available for various operating systems. Awesome.
The VM is the problem with Java. That's what makes it so crappy.
Even though VM allows for increased portability it massively hogs system resources and in some cases can slow down the program.

I guess it kinda says itself, that running an additional VM will slow down any process, as you only can work within the bounds of that. It's both it's strongest and weakest side.
Another one of the stronger sides, is that it's really easy to learn, but hard to master. As mentioned before in this post, a real pro can make java work almost as fast as other languages, but that requires a lot of work.
I don't know why, but OOP comes very natural to me, so I think that's great. Not that there isn't other languages that does that.
