Hi,

You can get a free download of the Java tutorial from sun, get it HERE . Surfing the internet will also provide you with lots of information, have a look at sites like codeguru, jguru, javaworld, etc... for lots of articles and discussions. And of course ask all your java related questions in this forum.

Also tell me how can i install the same. What are the environment to use under windows enviromnemt.

I'm not sure I understand this, do you want to install Java or the tutorial? What is the same?

Any way you can get the JDK (Java Development Kit) from the sun site for free as well and all you need to do is run the installation package to install it, just make sure you download the windows version. Have a look for it HERE

Hope This Helps

There are also two pretty good IDE's to do your java development.

• Eclipse http://www.eclipse.org/
• NetBeans http://www.netbeans.org

The best thing about these IDE's is their price. FREE!!!!

Peronally I like NetBeans. If you decide to go with NetBeans. Get the v5.5 RC2, Profiler, and the Enterprise Pack (Beta). This is a pretty good setup.

Either one will help doing Java development.

Good Luck.
