Why? It's a console/filter program.
Because it didn't work a week ago when I hadn't installed X yet :)

And Patori, I agree with CoBB on all matters. Although I'm not sure it would be useful to go into detail about Import. I'd just point out that it doesn't really include the files, so it will not hurt to import too much. Everything else isn't really neccessary in a beginners tutorial.

Well, you don't want to import EVERYTHING, because then you'll have so many ambiguities that you'll be specifying for everything and be back where you started.

Of course you can, the instructions would just be a bit different (mainly with dealing with the command line).

oookkkkkaaay.

byte Byte-length integer 8-bit two's complement
short Short integer 16-bit two's complement

Never used it in my program


char A single character 16-bit Unicode character
boolean A boolean value (true or false) true or false
what about String?

String isn't a variable type. It's an Object.

Well, more like a dimensioned char. I think.. I don't know; high level languages are horrible :P

No, that's C where a String (which doesn't even really exist) is a character array. In Java, a String is a subclass of Object. It's not primitve. (Internally, it uses an array (I think) of chars.)

You should know this!

Why should I know something about a language I despise? You can't really use java for creating games, it's too slow!! And for the most part, I'm a game programmer, so.. bah. I only use java because that's the only thing we're using in my CS class.
