Hi, i'm new to programming, I have just started it in my gr 11 computer engineering class and we are using Ready to program with java and I d/l Netbeans but the syntax is quite different and I was wondering if anyone could help me with how to use field widths and how to input from the keyboard? Thanks for any help recieved, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have had a long last week, so my remaining two brain cells are hanging on for dear life...forgive me if I have totally misunderstood you.

What do you mean the syntax is different??

Do you mean textfield widths like a JTextField??

JTextfield jt = new JTextFiled(20); <-- where 20 would be the size of your text field. Is that what you mean?

To input your text, you click in the textfield and type :unsure:

Could you clarify your questions a bit more??

what i meant is for example using Ready to program with Java how i would write a field width is

(Toggle Plain Text)

c.println("Hello", 20);

the 20 meaning it puts the word in the quotations on the 20th space

as for inputting from the keyboard

(Toggle Plain Text)

int age;
age = 0;
c.println("Enter your age:");
age = c.readInt();

or

c.println("Enter your age:");
int age = c.readInt();

I hope this is clearer and hope you can help me, thanks
