Java Problems (1 Viewer)

[kyliej]

In about a weeks time I am about to start my project and it has to be written in java. The problem is I don't fully understand java. I have tried so hard and still I really don't get it. If anyone has any notes on it, i'd be greatful if you posted them. Thanks

Very few schools do java. If you have any specific questions, feel free to post. I and many here can help with java

Yes,
people aren't going to spoon feed you information. What specifically don't you understand?

dude,
go to Parramatta and get urself a copy of JAVA 2 for only $10, its heaps good. Normally they would sell is for $30-40 but, its a special sale. Its got codes in there that might help give ideas n stuff.
Go buy it b4 its too late. Book sale near Dymocks.

Do you mean, do i rely on the IDE to generate code for me, as opposed to using a Text Editor to code? I just use notepad. But when i get lazy i use the IDE.

yeah i had to do a dice guessing game for my first assesment task

but i cant understand how to make a java program read, write and access the net to retrive links of webpages
i read the java.sun tutorial but it confused the hell out of me
i still have ages before the assignment is due but some notes on this topic would be helpful

Pedgogic IDE wise would be Blue J, it's simple for beginners and it also supports UML

Professional IDE wise would be either JBuilder from Borland, you can download a free version from www.borland.com

or there's also Eclipse, which i'm using for java right now.

cool
