Java; javac Syntax Errors

Filed under: education, tech — Tags: , , — gff @ 8:05 pm

Here we will make some syntax errors on purpose and observe how javac complains; the intention being that when we do not make errors on purpose we will know what javac is saying to us, and thus know how to correct it.

the full write up on java programming is at: JS Wiki Java Prog

Have fun, be the best, live wise.

I was bored so I started to peruse wikipedia; here is my adventure.

This more than anything is what I wish to instill in my students that mathematics is both art and science.

Typesetting mathematics in a wiki.

mathTypesetting

the JS Wiki uses the MediaWiki engine. Not all wikis will support them <math> tags, but you can use the JS Wiki, or I can set you up with a wiki that supports the math tags.
