So I'm gonna learn some basic java (again) but I have some quick questions. My brain learns better by doing and actually modding got me farther than any previous attempt at learning java did. As stupid as my mod is, I'm still rather proud that I did it within about 3 hours total on my first real attempt. So my question is, can anyone suggest a java course online thats free? Is there anything like codecademy for java? Also how far should I go in the course? Thanks sorry if I've been an annoyance

Thanks guys, still a bit confused, but I'm gonna try to learn basic java again.

Big image warning, ~1080p Hey guys, I've been following MrCrayfish's modding tutorial (awesome for beginners) and upon completing all but the armor and compiling episodes I had a question. If you look at the picture in the spoiler above, you will see that in the variable definition section... public static Item itemThing; public static Block blockThing; public static Item itemThingSoup; public static Item itemBurntSoup; public static Item thingSpear; public static Item itemSpearHead; I have added 1 Block and 5 Items to a fairly useless mod intended to get me into modding. However, if you look at the package explorer on the left side, there are only three classes, which is a bit puzzling to me because nothing is significantly different between those with classes and those without. I'm new to java so please be patient with me, but is there a way to easily generate classes for all my blocks and items? I tried doing it manually which didn't change my in-game item whatsoever. Sorry if I left anything important out, I'm thoroughly confused. Feel free to ask if you need more info. Also, did I do this wrong or did I just leave out a step?
