Okay so I'm new to Java. I started out with Python a while back, but put it down after I changed jobs (java is used in my new workplace). Anyway, I was able to get by everything pretty easily without too much strain, but then java objects started throwing out a ton of new stuff all at once. To be honest, I feel pretty dumb trying to figure out some of these simple questions, but I don't think I'm ready because I'm struggling with the questions. Any words of advice to help me work up to more complex problems?

My suggestion would be to take it slow. Although some of the courses are small in scope, the content can require a great deal of practice to remember. Go through a course video and experiment with what was shown on your own. Once you feel confident with the material, move onto the next set of content. The Treehouse Workspace is a great place to start or you can use your own preferred editor.
Although I'm a front-end developer, Java was my first programming language a few years ago. I do miss it sometimes.
