In the Java Script tutorials he said that Java Script and Java have nothing in common but after going through the Java Script this looks very similar.

When I tried to run the first java program in terminal this is what I saw:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: welcome
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: welcome
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202)
at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:190)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306)
at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:301)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247).

And this is what I typed in the file "welcome.java":
public class welcome
{
public static void main( string args[] )
{
system.out.println( "Welcome" );
}
}
.
Please tell me what I would do. Thx.

Maury, Java is not open-source, even though for now it's free. You should therefore, instruct students on how to setup a developer IDE environment for running Java Script. It won't run on the command prompt either, if you haven't installed the SDK from Oracle's Java site. Neither will NetBeans IDE intall OR run if you don't have the said SDK. The installer takes quite a bit of space on the hard drive, so you should also mention this to students. Once you instruct on what and how to install, THEN you can go ahead and run the scripts. It's not clear for the novice what you're doing or where you're doing it when you're running the example programs.

Maury, you should have a section on how to setup the user interface. I set mine up and it was a PAIN. I also had to find a workaround for java to run the programs from the command prompt. It was not easy. Also, the NetBeans program does not run individual project files by clicking the huge green button. You need to right click the file in the project window and run just THAT file. Otherwise, NetBeans will run the main class file and may confuse the user, because the default file is written without errors, but outputs nothing. You really need to include this section, please, for the students and newbies. Seems like learning Java is worth a while; I'll see if all my frustration pays off after taking the two courses offered by educator.com. I like to take courses here for intro.

These lectures are hard to follow. If you could elaborate a little more, slow down, and show how to setup the user interface as Jorge Guerrero said that would be really helpful.

Introduction to Java

  • Java is an object-oriented, event-driven, stand-alone programming language
  • Java programs can be created in a standard text editor
  • Programs can be run through a command prompt or an IDE such as NetBeans
  • All Java programs must contain the “public static void main” method
  • Comments can be added by using the double-slash (“//”)
