Getting Started: Java
Provides an overview of Java technology as a whole. It discusses both the Java programming language and platform, providing a broad overview of what this technology can do and how it will make your life easier. In the Java programming language, all source code is first written in plain text files ending with the .java extension. Those source files are then compiled into .class files by the javac compiler. A .class file does not contain code that is native to your processor; it instead contains bytecodes - the machine language of the Java Virtual Machine1 (Java VM). The java launcher tool then runs your application with an instance of the Java Virtual Machine.
The JScript .NET Fundamentals
JScript .NET is a computer programming language developed by Microsoft based on early or previous standards of the JavaScript, then J Script language. The primary and strongest difference, what sets JScript .NET apart is that it is not a simple or regular scripting language. JScript .NET is actually at the same level of, and enjoys the same respect of popular languages like Java, C/C++, or C#. While the previous version of JScript and JavaScript were scripting languages that needed a browser to show their results, JScript .NET is a fully functional and independent language that can be used to create regular executables that can be run on client computers. JScript .NET can be as loose as JavaScript, that is, it can let you write code that don't rely on known data types. At the same time, you can take advantage of techniques used in strongly typed languages like C/C++, Pascal, C#, etc, making the language "less forgiving". This makes the code easier to read, maintain, and faster to compile.
The Java Lesson and Topic
A computer language is a series of words used to give instructions to the computer, telling it what to do, how to do it, and when to do it. Just like there are various human languages used to communicate, there are also various computer languages. One of these computer languages is called Java. The purpose of this site is to study this language. In our lessons, we will learn Java as a computer language not as a development environment. This means that we will primarily build applications that show how this language functions, not how to create graphical applications. The types of programs we will create on this site are called console applications.
Herong's Tutorial Notes on Swing
This free book is an excellent tutorial book for beginners. It is a collection of notes and sample codes written by the author while he was learning Java AWT and Swing. Topics include AWT, button, Chinese, component, event, frame, graphics, GUI, internal frame, Java, JDK, JFC, language, label, listener, look and feel, MVC, radio button, resolution, screen, Swing, text field, thread, toolkit, tutorial, Unicode. A Java package name, javax.swing, in J2SDK (Java 2 Software Development Kit). It provides many enhancements to the existing graphics package, AWT (Abstract Windows Toolkit) package, java.awt. javax.swing and java.awt together offer a complete API (Application Programming Interface) for Java applications to operate graphical devices and create Graphical User Interfaces (GUI ).
