Java fundamentals, tutorials, etc.

Ok, I am a noob to Java. There's no denying it. I've read several tutorials now and none have them have been impressive to be honest. I just can't grasp the concept, all the tutorials explain the theory too metaphorically. It makes it hard to actually apply it, I wonder if someone could link me to a tutorial that helps me with Java from COMPLETE scratch. I am interested in J2ME too, cos I want to make programs for my phone. Any help?

What you're looking for is "hello world".
Whenever I want to learn a new language I search for a hello world example, then you'll get a whole lot of dummy examples to get you started.

I searched for "j2me hello world" and found the following:

Code: Select all

public class helloWorld {
            public static void main (String args[]) {
                  System.out.println("Hello world!");
            }
}

I've actually learnt a lot since i posted that last ...post lol. All from http://michael.has.nicedrums.net amazing site.
