For God's sake stay clear of .net.
It's a sinking (and burning?) platform.

care to explain as to why you think like that
personally i dont have a problem with either
my main problem is which one should be selected to start with
reusablity of existing knowledge is what i am after the most next to good documentation
i dont want to be in a position where i have to start all over if i want to learn something else later
my questions are like this as i aint familear with either of those.

Try both, figure out what you like.
There are a lot of very large companies that use .net
There are a whole lot more that use Java.
If you're in the Java environment, its easier to go towards Android.
If you're in .net, there is almost no barrier to go to all Windows platforms - desktop or mobile.
The documentation on the Windows side is (as others have mentioned) truly amazing: MSDN (online or offline).
The documentation gaps in either case are filled in by StackOverflow.
A career can be built from either one of these technologies.
There is no one right answer.
All the best.
about stack overflow i do use it but not of much use for me as much of it overflows

In fact Mono has landed me one job interview. The company sent me a programming test to write in C# and I did not have a Windows machineI used a laptop though, Mono on the N900 has a totally unusable interface.
and what kind of code experimentation can be done on n900

i am bad in mathematics so what kind of things i should steer clear off would be a great advice as for long i avoided maths and i clearly see the implications of it in my daily life
.Plus you'll earn much more. Later, but much more.
