My background: I am a technical writer, and I just got a job working with developers who write in Java. Previously I'd been working with Python developers. In school I took a class in python and did well (and in fortran, ugh). I've done a little self-study, and I've got halfway through the codeacademy lessons for python without much trouble. I have a personal interest in learning to code and might want to switch into a developer position sometime later in my career. My question: How hard is java to learn compared to python? Basically, I know the standard advice for a newbie is to learn python first, but I have reason to switch to learning java if that's feasible. I just don't know how steep the learning curve is. I also don't really know where to start on learning by myself, since there are no codeacademy lessons for java and I'm not in school anymore. Would it be worth signing up for an intro class at a community college like this one or purchasing the textbook for that course, or another textbook? This might be an unusual question, but thanks for the help anyway.
