Coding:[/b]]

class runegear{
	public static void main(String args[]){
		System.out.println("Hello RuneGear!");
	}
}

Every thing in java starts with a class.
public static void main(String args[]) is your method header.
System.out outputs things to your computer.
Println is a built in method that will out prints a line out.(Computer, Database,etc.)
Everything else, we will learn more about in the future.

How about netbeans or eclipse? Those are also pretty good.

 

[iolaka]

[Maxie]

Also Crimson Editor is a pretty good text editor.

I will be using IDE's in the next tutorial.
I am still deciding if I should use NetBeans or Eclipse.
Probably, Eclipse.

I didn't want to rush into downloading the IDE's, etc.

I would suggest doing voice + video tutorials if you can. Helps people much more.

 

[Dusk_mybb_import13243]

Yeah. I was thinking about that as well, haha.

 

[Techno]

For java the basic thing you should have it net beans.

 

[Dusk_mybb_import13243]

I was hoping people would just use there text editor.
Part 3 will be about choosing and downloading an IDE.
Part 4 will get more into "really" coding.

All of these tutorials are available at www.w3schools.com I personally learned Java, HTML, PHP, and JavaScript from that website.

 

[Crucifix]

Please do commentary if you are going to continue these tuts. I hate text.

 

[Dusk_mybb_import13243]

Yeah. That's what I decided to setup.
Going to get better mic first.
