I’m Back!

I got nearly eight hours of classes in each day for four days (the first day I got about two or so hours, I think). Unfortunately, there was nothing for me to learn in the Web Development class, but I was glad to learn quite a bit of Java, so I’ll definitely be spending plenty of time working on Java from now on. I’m beat, have loads of emails to check, lots of work to do, and I’m about to be moving into another room across the hall (my oldest brother moved out). On top of that, July 4th and two of my brothers’ birthdays are right around the corner. I’m off to do no good for awhile, so for those of you who are waiting email responses, please be patient — I’m really working on it, but after going for a whole five days without Internet, it’s going to take a bit to get back in the swing of things.

    You should have seen what the classes would have covered and thus you should have known just how useful they would have been. For whatever reason I can’t get Java to run on my computer because I think I accidently changed a setting on my computer and thus I can only compile the code. I can’t really remeber what I did, but it was something what I thought was completely unrelated. At one point though I liked playing around with the language.

    And what was widely considered the best book written on Java can be downloaded for free. http://www.mindview.net/Books/TIJ/ Note that is the 3rd ed. and the 4th ed. comes out in December. I assume that version will cover Java v1.5.

    Thanks, Matt! I downloaded the book. Looks like some good stuff!

    I did look over the classes that were offered, but it didn’t get very detailed. With as much that it said that it covered, though, I figured that they would be insightful — and besides that, I may have missed some of the basics since I never took any classes to learn the language. Looks like I was wrong — I’ve been learning more on my own, and learning it better (that is, without taking classes, my web apps are more secure and more efficient than what are taught at colleges — at least the basic classes).
