if u want a reference book to fall back to i would recommend  java unleashd. cant remember who da publisher is though. if u want a good text for guidence through da basic parts right to da swing and other advanced stuff u r better off with ivor horton's "begining java". bt watch out u have to put in real work to really use dis book. there is also a book which has a nice online edition "thinking in java" it also includes a good introduction to OOP. so if dis is ur first foray into programming it'll b a good choice.  drop in a mail if u need anything more

You can get the latest version of the JRE (Java Runtime Environment), which is what its asking for, directly from Sun Microsystems, the creators of Java:\n\nhttp://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

As a procedural programmer (which I'm only assuming you are; you may already be doing object-oriented programming), you may need to familiarize yourself with the basics of object oriented programming first.   \n\nI would suggest borrowing or buying a book on the object-oriented paradigm (you can find all sorts of OOP books on Amazon)  to familiarize yourself with the concepts.  \n\nThen, go to Sun Microsystems http://www.sun.com and download NetBeans 5.5, which is the Java IDE.  Sun also has plenty of tutorials on its site, and they are hierarchically organized as to skill level so that you can jump in wherever you feel most comfortable. \n\nGood luck!

The best source for JAVA is http://java.sun.com\n\nFor networking I would start off with http://www.windowsnetworking.com/ and http://computer.howstuffworks.com/home-network.htm\n\nFor C and C++ I think books are the best bet, but try the site http://www.cprogramming.com/ and http://www.cppreference.com/

Buy the books called, funnily enough, Core Java by sun microsystems press, it may have Core Java 2 as the title.

I strongly recomment this one:\n C#: The Complete Reference\n by Herbert Schildt\n\nSchildt is the best writer in programming tutorial books. I loved and used his books since 1996.

have a look at:\nhttp://www.thanassis.com/java/java%20training%20course/index.htm\n\nIt's a quick visual and comprehensive guide for many of the \nfundamental concepts you need to know. i tried to keep the \ntext to minimum and to explain as much as possible with \npictures.

According to me the best books are from Wrox publications.\n\nhttp://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/\n\nThey give programmer perspective content in a very usefull manner.\nI'll gurantee that there EJB book is very good since I use it myself.
