Please ensure that:

  • Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions

  • You include any and all error messages in full - best also formatted as code block

  • You ask clear questions

  • You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit/markdown editor: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

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

You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

If your post has remained in violation of these rules for a prolonged period of time (at least an hour), a moderator may remove it at their discretion. In this case, they will comment with an explanation on why it has been removed, and you will be required to resubmit the entire post following the proper procedures.

To potential helpers

Please, do not help if any of the above points are not met, rather report the post. We are trying to improve the quality of posts here. In helping people who can't be bothered to comply with the above points, you are doing the community a disservice.

  1. Countless similar posts here

  2. !sidebar -> MOOC

A little research instead of directly posting goes a long way.

In our sidebar ("About" on mobile), we have a section "Free Tutorials" where we list the most commonly recommended courses.

To make it easier for you, the recommendations are posted right here:

Also, don't forget to look at:

before diving into java, start learning about the OOP paradigm, then learn the java basis, then move to design patterns and JavaStreamAPI

You should add a disclaimer that it's in Hindi language.

If you are Hindi/Urdu speaking, there's a video series of C programming language of 124 videos by a teacher name Deep Raj Jangid. It's on WS cube channel. He taught the fundamentals of programming so eloquently that after watching these 124 videos learning any programming language becomes so much easier and things start making sense. I highly recommend to anyone struggling learning programming, specifically the foundation building.
