How does a person learn Java? (convert byte array to hexadecimal string)

Question

I know this sounds like a broad question, but I can narrow it down with an example. I am VERY new in Java. For one of my training projects, I wanted to create my own MD5 hash file for use by us. I started very simply, trying to hash the string, and then go to the file later. I created the MD5Hasher.java file and wrote the following:

import java.security.*;
import java.io.*;
public class MD5Hasher{
    public static void main(String[] args){
        String myString = "Hello, World!";
        byte[] myBA = myString.getBytes();
        MessageDigest myMD;
        try{
            myMD = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
            myMD.update(myBA);
            byte[] newBA = myMD.digest();
            String output = newBA.toString();
            System.out.println("The Answer Is: " + output);
        } catch(NoSuchAlgorithmException nsae){
            // print error here
        }
    }
}

MD5?

:

String plaintext = 'your text here';
MessageDigest m = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
m.reset();
m.update(plaintext.getBytes());
byte[] digest = m.digest();
BigInteger bigInt = new BigInteger(1,digest);
String hashtext = bigInt.toString(16);
// Now we need to zero pad it if you actually want the full 32 chars.
while(hashtext.length() < 32 ){
    hashtext = "0"+hashtext;
}
