I want to learn Java on my Kindle or my iPad when I'm in a library or something but the problem is that the eBooks that I've found are all from 2008 or later;in fact, they are pretty outdated. Can someone name some books that are au-courant?

Java isn't known for changing much, quite the opposite actually. Any book within the last decade should be fine.

I followed some tutorials used for the Netbeans IDE and when I attempted to Copy Pasta the code, the IDE brought up several errors and refused to run. :/ I'll take your advice and continue to study.

Your errors were most likely deprecated package errors, which can come up when you use a Sun package, since Java is now owned by Oracle.

They shouldn't affect your program, it's just saying that the packages are going to be replaced with Oracle packages soon.

However here's a list of things that were removed from Java, which may make your code refuse to run:
