I saw someone requesting advice for having lost his java skills.

I know this is off topic for a linux group but some simple tips which are
of general benefit :

In programming languages, concepts recur. For each language, the syntax and
some concepts change.

The skeleton of programming is:
1. data types, variables and operators
2. getting user input and output
3. conditionals
4. loops
5. arrays
6. casting
7. pointers
8. functions and templates
9. objects and classes
..abstraction
..constructors
..destructors
..encapsulation
10. inheritance and polymorphism
11. interface
12. overloading
13. threads
14. working with files
15. exceptions
16. available functions/classes networking for networking.
17. the shortcuts e.g. the enum of java can be seen as a shortcut.

All languages don't have all of the above it depends
So, if you grasp these concepts, you can learn as many languages as you
like. So as not to forget, you need to keep a reference ready at hand, your
own notes or a good compilation with the syntax, description and a short
example of use. Good programmers don't memorise it all,they make good use
of the documentation.
