Try picking up a Java for dummies or such from a used book store, or look up a good book on Amazon and see if you can get a previous edition for less at said used book store. I can't recommend any specifics since I haven't read any.

You are not going to be able to mod minecraft without some prior knowledge in java.

I don't beleive I saw any, but creating blocks requires a new .class file(I think). For an app to do that it would theoretically need to unzip(jar) the minecraft Jar, add the new .class and recompile the jar. 1 problem is that when installing mods instead of just zipping the folder you have to select all the files so yeah...

Seems like some of the Minecraft editors can create blocks, etc. Why not use those?

Which is precisely why I will never program anything more advanced than graphing calculator games in TI Basic.

So, I want to Mod minecraft. I just read a bunch of tuts on MCfourms but none actually explained java programing. I want to learn a minecraft exclusive java programing. can anyone give me a simple tut or link(for creating a block, minecart speed, ect)? I don't have the slightest experience in any coding languages btw.
