How to start the transition from C# to Java?

Question

Java

I have knowledge of C# at Junior level, I want to switch to Java. The main goal is to learn how to program for Android. Tell me, from which books / materials / videos / etc. worth starting? Tried javarush service - too much water.

Answer 1

Perhaps not everything is so bad.
Read about Visual Studio 2015 + Xamarin.
Or game development in Unity3D + C#.

Answer 2

Is there a lot of water on jr? I don't think there is enough information out there.
Java The Complete Guide 9 Edition Schildt
Java. Professional Library (2 Volumes) Horstmann
Philosophy java Bruce Eckel
Well, then everything related to Android is possible

Answer 3

Start from the beginning. Despite some similarity in class names, the .NET and Java architectures are different. The initial level of C # proficiency may even be good in your case: the brain will not wedge.
I would advise you to first get acquainted with the possibilities of the language. Take a free video course like Android Application Development . Slowly working with the demonstrated examples, get the first skills and feel the development environment.
And then - books, deeper courses, working on different topics and choosing your own path.

Answer 4

You can find something for yourself among this - 1000+ hours of Java videos in Russian

Answer 5

From scratch.

Answer 6

I would recommend Troelsen's two-volume book. There is none of the water stuffed into books "for dummies".
