Java, one of the most ubiquitous programming software languages available globally, is an Object-Oriented Program (OOP) created by the software company Oracle. It features a Command Line Interface (CLI) reminiscent of C, C++, and Python. They are used by businesses worldwide. Java is often used to automate processes, especially sequences that could be time and labor-intensive.
My first foray into the world of Java was for the class Operating Systems Theory & Design (CPT307) - the project titled Hello My Name is____. After reading the class text and tutorials, I downloaded Java and a Java Development Kit (JDK) to run Java. I also downloaded an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), which allows a developer to compile written code. I initially downloaded NetBeans and tried using it with Java.
I had some difficulty rendering my code, so I decided to move on from that program and downloaded Visual Studio Code. After using that program, I glanced at what student expectations through to the last project then made a practice decision to use BlueJ. I found a YouTube video to guide me while writing my code. it is titled: Hello World and User Input with the BlueJ IDE.
I found BlueJ very user-friendly and able to produce the desired results of the Interactive Assignment. Here is a screenshot of my results. As of this posting, I would recommend using BlueJ over either of the two other IDEs that I tried before this one.
