     Non sequitur.

     Note that conditional "If one does not already know the class".
That is rather different from already having "a pretty good idea" about it.

     Getting started can be the hardest part, and JavaDoc does not
help much there.  Once I get started, the rest is often quite a bit easier. 
Without that start though, one can be spinning one's wheels to little avail.
