I find it very difficult to read Java code because it tends to be so long-winded and many-layered.

- userbinator 12y agoJava is easy to read at the "micro" level, i.e. the bodies of methods usually don't contain much code; but I think that is precisely what makes it hard to understand at the macro/system level, because that small amount of code depends on a much larger amount throughout the rest of the system, spread across multiple files in different deeply-nested directories. That's when you have to start following chains of method calls, object creations, and class hierarchies.
