what's a good book to use for learning Java??

Answer 1

Udacity offers free online courses but have to pay for certificate. I am working on Android Development using Java and XML. The way they explain Objects and Classes in Java is easy to follow and I was quick to grasp the concepts they were explaining. Are you learning Java for the purpose of Android Developement?
