Is Java a good language fer beginners? i've read a little about C++ but the Syntax can be a bit overwhelming for me as a beginner.

By Ovanes Mikaelian•January 4, 2013

After setting up the "public class accountcredit", which extension do we use to save the file - .class or .java? Thank you.

By Sergio Gutierrez•November 28, 2012

exactly:
also the randomization of numbers it also start from 0. since dices do not have a number 0. is a good idea to add 1 and make things even as an dice

By ilonka harezi•August 5, 2011

i have had trouble in the past understanding the the use of increment and decrement operator, but through the Loop lesson, i got it. thanks you for a great teaching ability, may you have more on your plate to help those in need.
