I am a complete newbie to computer programming and somewhere i found out that java is a good language to start with. I found a good site that tells u how to write a java file, what to put in it, and how to save it. The one thing i'm getting caught on is how to compile it. I think that when u do this it turns it into "computer" language, right? Some people say use a command prompt but i don't really know how to do that. I'm using windows xp and i found the command prompt (i think) but i have no idea how to use it. If anyone knows a good website that explains how to do all this or if someone can explain some of it thoroughly to me it would
greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
