I have been convinced by my college teachers that there is a high demand for java programmers. therefore i want to enhance my java skills. I ask that someone/anyone please treat me as a noob and throw some small time projects/applications to develope at me. thanks~

Do you know any Java? This will help me determine what projects I can throw at you.

Just start with learning the basics. first start simple console apps using loops, arrays, input/output. then learn object oriented programming. From there you can tackle more complicated topics like threads and sockets. Then move onto some GUI apps.

yes i know some java.. I have all basic experience. I would like to start with a console apps then move onto more complicated console apps (liek u suggested) then move onto GUIs. i have worked a little with input and output using the Scanner class. I have a big problem with creating ideas for myslef...

EDIT: I can work with arrays in C++, but i was told they are completely different in Java?

Thats a start. maybe move into some OOP programming now.. something simple just to understand how it works in java

The first OOP project i did in java was a stupid beverage program. I had a super class, then 2 sub-classes which were HotDrink and ColdDrink. then i had Beer as another sub-class of ColdDrink. try coding up something stupid like that. Let me know if you need class diagrams or sample code to get started. Or just search google for some simple OOP examples.. doesnt really matter what language the example is in cause it could easily converted to java code.

ok i will attempt that. My problem now is my stupid PATH variable.. my teacher did it for me at school!

this is my bin path:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin

this is my path var:
C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\PROGRA~1\ULTRAE~1


how should i add my bin path to the path var? appending doesn't do crap
