Which proves that Java is not suitable for your task. Whoever
told you that you could learn Java in a few days? Java is for
advanced programmers.
Consider using Python instead. You can learn most of the
language in 3-5 days, and there's tons of APIs out there.
You might never come back to Java
If this is for Windows, it's also possible to create native
executables for Windows (don need no JRE).
Bruce Eckel, author of "Thinking in C++" and "Thinking in Java",
has plenty of opinion on Python:
