New language

Alright so i'm not a professional coder but i tought i'd start learning Java.
So now my question to /prog/ is: does anybody know any good places i can start learning Java? Like good PDF's or sites?
And what is the best compiler according to you?

Java is not a compiler, its a VM running in userspace

No you fucking retard. Java and the JVM are two *different* things. Java is a language that does in fact get compiled. The JVM, which is a different beast, interprets this compiled code. Man you're stupid. Go back to working the cash registers at Burger King.
