Hello everyone. Just gained the interest to learn coding especially Java and I wanted to ask are there any available Java online tutorial for a beginner ? I don't have any IT related knowledge as I'm from management course.

Why java? Is it because you want to develop android apps?
The reason I ask is people often get java and javascript mixed up.

Javascript is used in the Web browser, java  runs on android, as well as servers and desktops but not in the browser.

Honestly, do not discount Youtube - there are lots of very good tutorials (especially the NewBoston channel) - just make sure the tutorials are fairly up to date (<2 years max).
If you want to spend some money, Udemy has very good classes - including Tim Buchalka's Java Masterclass which is currently only about $13...

I agree with others though. Think about what you want to learn and why. Android/mobile app development is very 'sexy' at the moment and job opportunities are good (even for those with good competency if not formal quals)

Android apps development seems to be an exciting option. As far as I know, there are plenty of various courses. You may have a look at Codegym or Codeacademy. Both provide a good base for a beginner. However, I advise paying attention also to Javascript cause it may reveal more opportunities in the coding niche

I recon this thread gets deleted, seems odd spam but the guy has one post and hasn't logged in in two weeks.
