Week 1 Interactive 2

Greetings!

I am new to coding and starting fresh with learning Java. For this week’s assignment, I needed to install and get Java up and running (as all of us did). First step was to figure out how to install the JDK (Java Development Kit). I am using a Windows computer, so after locating the file and downloading it I was off and running. Next step was to install an IDE (Integrated Development Environment). These environments make coding with Java easy and clear, providing instructions and recommendations regarding your code. With the help of YouTube, specifically a channel called “Coding with John”, the installation process was smooth and painless.

The requirement for this week was to write a program called “Hello my name is” and have it display your name properly. Creating a new project was simple and following the instructions and videos, this was a simple task.

 

Here is the channel that I used to figure out how to get started!

Java is "Strongly Typed"? - Here's What That ACTUALLY Means

 

Until next time,
