I was wondering and will continue this post if anyone replys... Does anyone here know how to program in java? Help would be appreciated!

I'm sure multiple people here know how to cod in Java. Could you be more specific as to what exactly you want someone to do? Do you need help solving a problem in Java or something? :-k

Well I have a school project next year and I want to make a game in java..

 

so I want to get started early so wht I want to know is like requirements/programs I need tips tricks how to get started that kind of thing.

Well, there's tons of Java tutorials out there for beginning Java programming. You can really just Google it. As for programs, the only ones that I've ever used were JCreator and BlueJ. A lot of people just use notepad or something of the sort.

 

 

 

Hope that helps.

Im taking a computer programming class, and we have been doing the last semester in JCreator (a Java compiler). I'm al right at it, and i am making a memory game(the one where the cards flip over, and you have to match them) and its not that hard. Ill be taking AP comp. sci. next year, and hopefully i will stick with it.

 

 

 

It sounds like you don't know how to program, and Java would not be a good starter. You would want to learn something like True Basic over the summer, then the transition into Java will be much easier. You can pm me if you want to have code samples.

NetBeans is an excellent for learning Java, it gives you syntax errors as you type (squiggly lines under incorrect lines, like MS word) and has useful features like auto Javadoc and loads more. (Damn I sound like I'm trying to sell it :-s) lol.

 

 

 

Good Luck :D

I've seen people have great success in Eclipse, because of how much it does for you.

 

 

 

Personally, I like jGRASP because of how little it does for you.

 

 

 

If I'm on a unix box, I use gedit when I can, and vim when I can't. But you probably don't have that problem ;-)

 

 

 

As to what you need to do, remember - java.util is your friend!!!!!

 

 

 

Break your problem down into small steps, and solve the small problems, and your entire program will just fall into place (after countless hours of debugging, of course!)
