Hi Jamal, Do you mean reading your own code, or other peoples' code? Do you find Java code to be more difficult to read than Python?

look at this line of code--> public static void main(String[] args) do you know what each of these words mean? If you do, then you're understanding plenty. It's also always good to review your own code, to understand what will be the result of it. Practice makes perfect. Is there anything in particular you struggle with?

Hi Jamal,

I guess you meant read other people's code. My advice to you is try to understand and dominate the 4 fundamental principles of OOP: Encapsulation, Abstraction, Polymorphism and Inheritance, which will allow you also to learn and read other programming languages. Also remember that each person has his own style of coding and an expected solution might be implemented in different ways.
