Specifically:

http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Boolean.html
http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Byte.html
http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Character.html
http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Short.html
http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Integer.html
http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Long.html
http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Float.html
http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Double.html

These, and the collections classes, are among the classes you absolutely must know in your bones to use Java.  The API docs must be at your fingertips.  To do otherwise is to be doomed.
