I have only solved more simple problems. I am working through myself, a bunch of exercises that I have set myself.
I do have a text editor and a compiler -- SDK 1.3 -- may be slightly out of date -- maybe a more recent version has come out ? ----- Original Message ----- From: "John L Raisor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "JDJList" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2002 11:32 PM Subject: [jdjlist] Re: two exercises I am trying to solve at the moment.... > > Some more basic questions that may get you more helpful answers > > 1) Do you have a text editor? > 2) Do you have a java compiler? > 3) Is this your first java program or have you been able to get other java > programs to run? > 4) What other programming languages do you know? > > Sorry about the footer, They didnt ask me about it. > > > > > > "Tim Nicholson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 09/26/2002 09:08:15 AM > > Please respond to "JDJList" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > To: "JDJList" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > cc: (bcc: John L Raisor/MN/Unitedmail) > Subject: [jdjlist] Re: two exercises I am trying to solve at the moment.... > > > > Jason, > > I understand what you are saying but *I* do not understand how to do these > problems.
