Just to elaborate a bit on what Robert is saying, the Java Tutorials on 
Oracle's site provide an excellent "How-To" guide on many subjects.

Java is also open source, and the source for many classes is easy to 
read.  If you really need to burrow down into behavior, read the source. 
  This is bordering on the intermediate-advanced level of programmer, 
however.

I also disagree here and agree with Robert.  If you do not know *Java* 
well, the Java docs are not too useful.  Once you learn the language 
fairly well, picking useful information out of the Java docs is quick, 
accurate and easy.

I taught myself Java, and I went through an early phase of "the Java 
docs are useless."  They kind of are, when you are first learning.  Once 
you "grok" Java, they're great.  I can now often pick details of classes 
right off the better than some folks on this list who I believe to have 
more experience in Java than I do.  There's a learning curve, but it's 
very manageable.

It's true of many languages because it's true, period.  There's a lot of 
domain specific best practice, design patterns, etc. that would be 
totally inappropriate for the core language reference to address.

In other words, welcome to the real world, kid.
