P.S I am programing in Java Thanks Posted by: Emily Do something with recursion, like a program that computes factorials. Or if you want something a little harder, do something like Knight's Tour. Or program some common searching or sorting algorithms. Posted by: fitzjj "hello world" ...or if you are up for something more challenging play around with some datastructures. try writing some hashtables or something - at the end of the day most programs rely on a datastructure of some sort. Have you played around with swing yet, that may take a bit of learning. before you do anything in java though make sure you have classes sussed, else you are not coding well. Posted by: bart Do you know how to open a new console in Java during a program Posted by: fitzjj your console is an application, in windows it is cmd.exe, under linux it would just be another shell, so you could use the same method to run other programs if you like... dont have any code so this is from memory and will probably need googling to correct: create a Process object get hold of the runtime object associated with the current java application. call the exec method of the runtime object passing the application name as an argument. e.g. [code]Process pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe")[/code] so if you replaced cmd.exe with notepad it would hopefully fire up notepad or something like that. good luck Posted by: dnoch Make a program (without graphics) that is relevant in your life. eg: a progfam that inputs your favourite TV programs and prints you a timetable for the week Posted by: bart Thanks vBulletin Copyright ©2000 - 2003, Jelsoft Enterprises Limited.
