Learn some clojure. Find a Java library you need to use. Learn Java for the interop.

>>60361714
java isn't any shit.
I could agree JRE isn't the best, but the language itselft it's actually nice for learning

I agree with this. Only come to /g/ to meme and laugh. But answering your question, the best way is to first look up youtube tutorial series. Folllow along the series, then get a beginners book. Start off with an IDE, dont start with notepad. I recommend either Eclipse or InteliJ

>>60361678
no best/easy way
Java is statically typed and OO enforced, Python is dynamic and OO optional

pic related, read it, take notes and such

Don't try Head First Java unless you want to waste your time with a book for 3 year olds (and I don't mean that the logic is flawed, it's just that they waste your time with tons of stupid shit)

>>60361714
Maybe because he wants a job that won't go away the next day.

just rewrite a project or something in Java. I had to make a android app for a project, never opened a book. Just google and try until it works :3
