Pete,

Coming from C, you really have 2 concepts to learn, not one. First, Java
is an Object-Oriented language, so you need to learn OOP
(Object-Oriented Programming). The primary difference is that C is a
function-oriented language, whereas Java is an object (or even data)
oriented language.

Second, you need to learn Java concepts, which are built, indirectly,
upon C and C++. One thing you need to get used to is: on the surface,
there are no pointers. Yet you are allowed to initialize references with
"null", and an exception type is NullPointerException. Confusing?

In my opinion, the best Java tutorial is at http://java.sun.com .
They're the experts; after all, they invented Java.
