It's really just the same for Java, except that you don't have to buy
anything unless you want to.

You can download a free IDE, such as Eclipse or Netbeans. The "function
reference" is the API documentation, available on-line or downloadable.
There are many on-line tutorials.

If you do buy a book, and the book recommends an IDE or other way of
compiling, it will be easiest to just do what it says. Otherwise, pick
*one* of the people who has made recommendations, and follow that
person's advice.

The problem is that there are several ways of doing things, and
different people are suggesting their preferred approach, but the
combination gets confusing.
