Let me preface this post by saying I'm a complete beginner to programming beyond basic HTML.
I'll be returning home from Iraq in the next month and will be taking a Java programming course this Fall at the University. I'd like to use what free time I have to prepare for the course so I don't completely get my ass-kicked.
Due to where I'm currently located, internet access is pretty limited and unreliable. I can, however, usually spend a couple of hours a day on the internet for recreational purposes. I can also download content on the public computer, transfer it to a thumb drive and then transfer it to my personal laptop.
Any suggestions on where and how I can best spend my time over the next couple of months preparing for this course? I'm not looking to become an expert in only a few short months, I'd just like to feel more comfortable going into this coming semester. Thanks in advance for the help.
