Java language, finally...

In weeks 1 and 2 you learned and tested basic Java applet environment, settings, and principles. Now in week 3 you can start learning the Java language itself in the same interactive environment. Every language has several main parts:
• Variables, Methods (as mechanisms of passing variables and constants among the parts of the overall software project – “plumbing”), and Data Types;
• Computational flow controls (conditionals and loops, as well as threads on macro level)
• Classes
• Advanced data structures

Variables and Methods will be the topic of week 3. Pay special attention to methods since they can dramatically simplify your programming work if being properly understood and used.

Commentary on W2 grading and problems is coming soon…
