I know you need to know Java to do Android, but my question is... how much? I'm going through a Deitel "Java - How to Program, 9th ed." book. I'm wondering how much of this is relevant to Android. Should I be starting from the Android tutorials and working backwards first? In other words, learn things from the Android side,…
