Young Coders: Getting Started

Young Coders Summer Program 2013

Under the "Young Coders" label, I'll post class notes. This is also where you can ask questions, discuss solutions to programming problems, and share ideas.

There are many options for programming in Java, from sophisticated IDEs such as IntelliJ and Eclipse to text editors like NotePad, Emacs, and Vi. I recommend Dr. Java for beginners because there’s no need for project management. It is also easier to use than raw text editors, but less complicated sometimes than full featured IDEs.

How to install Dr. Java:
1. Download and install the JDK
2. Download and install Dr. Java's Windows App or Mac OSX App (under current stable release).
