I am a complete beginner to Java, so any help would be great;y appreciated.

I need to create a number of shape objects(triangles for existance) and
display them in a GUI. I need to place the shapes in random positions and
keep a record of their x - y position within the frame or container. Can
anyone point me in the right direction in terms of a tutorial / book or code
snippets that I can work on.

Many thanks
