I am starting to learn Java and it seems pretty hard. So I need a little help defining some terms... ;-;

Question

Here are some terms that haven't 'clicked' in yet:
1. Strings
2. Void
3. Args
4. { vs. ( vs. [
5. Static
This might have been explained already, but I just haven't gotten these terms down. Thank you if you can help! :D

Answer 1

In every Java book/course i read (not many I admit). at the hello world stage was always written something like this stuff is complicate and important, just write it without complicating your life. When the time is right we'll cover it in detail.

It was frustrating but it makes sense because you have to go through on third of the arguments covered by the course to really understand every term.

If you find Java Hard, before you lose your will, visit https://processing.org
you'll use a simple ide that takes care of public static void main(String args[])
leaving you all the fun of doing real things while getting ready for technicalities.

Answer 2

Thank you! Hopefully I can find my questions answered there. ^^

Answer 3

Also have a look at Processing video tutorials by Daniel Shiffman on his youtube channel "The Coding Train" There is a complete playlist about programming from A to Z and other excellent resources.
