    How can i get started in java for android development? I don't currently know java but i would love to learn it for android.

    Is it better to start with normal Java and then move onto Java for android or just start Java for android first?

    Thanks in advance!!

    Realistically yes, you would need to know how to program in a language before you can specialize in that language for a particular platform - butter goes on before the jam, as it were.

    The following are a series of tutorials in Java and Android development done by the same guy:

    I can't speak for the Java tutorials, but I found the Android ones very good.
