Hi all,
I'm ploughing through Head First
Java, and agree, it is very easy to read and understand (particularly as I'm a grizzled old man from a procedural programming background).
I have JDK 1.6 installed (also NetBeans
IDE).
One thing though - the book asks you to solve some code puzzles quite early on - the first PoolPuzzleone for example. I really want to run the code, but the book gives you no indication of how to do this - very frustrating. It shows a kind of console window but doesn't show how to compile a class or run it.
I realise this may be later in the book but I want to do it now - is there a short tutorial on here on achieving that ?
Thanks , Andrew
